The last "job" I had was thirty years ago, I started out as salesman and ended up owning half the place after I was put in charge of restructuring it, I decided we should become a valve importer, and put together a direct marking campaign that took off big time. We did well enough that I could have retired by the age of thirty, provided I lived frugally.

The owner and my future partner was very wealthy farm boy who had also sold feed for Moorman's Manufacturing, which I had done in Michigan, until the state bought all the dairy farms out, if they agreed to shut down and never start up again. This was during a milk price slump.

Initially we were selling farm implements in the Salinas Valley, they certainly did have a lot of migrants working for them, BUT they were almost all extremely well paid, at least by all the larger farms, heck most of them even belong to unions. Whites who try to do the job are practically run out of town on a rail by them, it would not be Fun at all to work in the fields, not because the job is hard, I did it growing up, but because the Mexicans who run the work gangs will terrorize you.

I also knew a couple army guys who left the Army out there and thought they would try it. considering the pay was great and they were in prime shape and didn't want to leave California, why not? They could handle to the work, they couldn't handle the people they had to work with.

Whites would do the job, if they weren't basically forced out of it or at least they would have back in the day.

I'd also point out that while forty percent of field workers might be "illegal", that still only means that about 2% of illegals will ever step foot in a field and we could always do a work program just for field workers, like they used to do, to cover those two percent, that's if they can't get the video game generation to work, which sadly is a distinct possibility.

Make the field pay in incremental video game access. State of the art 'puter, latest games only accessed by putting in a full day. OT=more game time. Late to work or failure to show forfeits all access and accrued game time. Lotsa of lessons taught/learned!!

Think how many millions are being spent to feed, clothe and house illegal aliens. Finding the money should be a snap, just reprogram the funds…

Indeed - Shouldn't take Elon to figure that one out!

If someone breaks the law, arrest them, put them on trial, and if convicted, incarcerate them.

Stop all benefits for immigrants, legal or not. Benefits are for American citizens.

I hate borders, passports, border guards,...all of it. They limit our freedom of travel and label us as serfs to the State.

If an immigrant can support himself and not break the law, he can stay.

How does the country process the "If" part without restricting the border? Would a non-citizen supporting himself breaks the law, is he automatically deported? Never allowed to return? If the State is providing a service we want - processing visits/immigration - are we still serfs?
