The shortage of labor is why there is a need for Mexicans.

The "need for Mexicans" comes from greedy employers who would rather sell out their fellow Americans by exploiting the poverty stricken who come here for a better life. The employers can pay the illegals far less (and no benefits)and don't care that the "savings" is passed on to all taxpayers in the form of public entitlements that go to support the illegals and their families.

If employers had to pay their workers a decent wage, their profits would go down, but the quality of life for all Americans would go up immeasurably.

And as for the illegals who would be forced to remain in their own country - how about all those "hardworking" people chip in and better their own lot rather than try to ruin ours?

So how much should the “greedy” farmer pay his labor?? $20/hr? $40/hr or $100/hr before he is no longer a dirty stinking greedy capitalist in your book??

Now after you bankrupt all those dirty farmers, who you going to get to raise your crops?? Rush Limbaugh? Laura Ingrahrm or FReepers, since they know everything there is about farming and everything else for that matter.

Yeah Central Planning would work great if it were only run by “conservatives”.
