Well ... I can only shake my head in sadness. I am from an agricultural background where seasonal field workers have been a reality for about seven generations. The more government interferes with the relationship between farmer and picker, the worse the problem becomes. I remember learning that Ceasar Chavez bussed in college kids to march in his labor protests, and staged temporary shelter in empty old sheds and dwellings in the valley and had new reporters film them as the kinds of living quarters the farmers provided the workers --

-- I am afraid I'm not terribly concerned about the "relevant" piece you cite.

I am VERY concerned about having my right to deal with my medical care as I please on my terms, overridden by the government which will then presume to take cradle-to-grave medical responsibility for my well-being. Trump only wants his own version of Obamacare, is all I hear from him -- he wants to "take care of people." Cruz points out that first, Obamacare has to be repealed before you can start talking replacement.

The entire concept of nationalized health care is unconstitutional. Cruz is the only guy who sees it as such. Trump is already on to how he's going to do it better, and I refuse to vote for my own medical enslavement to the government.

You’re entitled to your opinion, friend.

I will admit the healthcare policy stuff from Trump is his biggest weakness. But he’s supposedly got a new healthcare paper in the works so I reserve judgment on that aspect of things.

I just don’t see anyone else as having the chance to fight Shrillary the way she deserves to be. Everyone else can’t see the forest for the trees on how to take her down. Trump has crossover appeal that no one else does imo.

Cruz, to my mind, talks like he’s before a judge all the time and he doesn’t realize that regular people don’t think like judges do. They want humor and sarcasm and self-deprecation. Trump knows all this and he’s a natural. Cruz is very forced and more arrogant.

But hey, you don’t have to believe my viewpoint. I think there are plenty of people on FR who support candidates in good faith. Just be aware. Cruz says he wants 500% increase in H1B. That’s scary to me as someone who used to work in a tech job. Google Disney H1b and see what the point of H1B visas is.
