Whorealdo brought up the silliness about who is going to pick the lettuce and fruit in the fields. He said 10 pct of crops are going unpicked now due to labor shortages. So his theory is we need to keep all the illegals so he can buy lettuce at a low price and the farmers keep making a fortune. Let the lettuce prices rise and believe me the farmers will get it picked.

Amen. Amen. Amen. Let things cost what they cost. The biggest phony line ever is “jobs Americans wont do”. They will damn straight do them if they pay what they’re worth. I don’t like rising costs anymore than the next guy, but if you’re in a labor market it’s a crime for the govt. to wreck your bargaining power regardless of my feelings about things.
