Nancy Pelosi says farmers need illegal immigrants ‘to pick the crops’ in Florida | |
Crabby Abby User ID: 63697737 United States 09/30/2022 10:35 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Big Ag doesn't want more legal immigrants, they cost too much. They save a mint on labor costs when they contract labor through unscrupulous Labor Brokers who grab laborers while they're still wet, house them in locked containers and threaten emigre if they question why they earn a $1 a day and a bowl of beans. That's the men. Undocumented women and children are being trafficked in rolling brothels. We don't know they're here until they're rescued in a raid. Their stories are horrifying. This is the status quo of illegal immigrants that Pelosi and the rest of the deep staters want to preserve. Slavery, because they don't want to go by the labor laws they themselves impose on others. |

The green card migrant farm work visa programs haven't been updated and streamlined since the days there were still black and white American migrant farm workers in the fields.

MAGA Republican BrainGuy White heteropatriarchal supremacist chemophob User ID: 84267807 United States 09/30/2022 10:40 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Not many coffee pickers in Nicaragua because they can earn ten to twenty times those wages escorting "undocumented" Venezuelans, Cubans, Haitians, and assorted Africans to the Honduran border. A few gourmet bean farms are shutting down because they cannot find workers willing to work even with doubling the wages. Between fertilizer, husking the shells, and transportation in mountainous regions, coffee farming is barely profitable. --------------- Don't care. Still voting Trump! ---------- |

The rest of their money is going to their $100K trucks and nightly steak dinners |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 84168688 Canada 10/01/2022 12:07 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | She is advocating for a slave class! She argues for humans to be allowed in for free so that companies that need hard laborers can vie for them! I’ve argued this with a staunch democrat before. Dems think that we need immigrants to pick our agriculture, but don’t seem to realize how condescending that is to assume people coming across are only good for that and not for the real American Dream. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 84250143 I really doubt the illegals come here dreaming of picking strawberries and living 15 to a shack, and they won’t. They’ll find their own way here. WHat are you Rumplestiltskin? Wake up! You ARE the slave class. Slave class = -Peasants (middle class) -Serfs (lower middle class) -Servants (working poor, illegals) -Useless eaters (anyone on government dime) You have to be upper-middle class to even be a freedman. For forgot the "death with dignities" Fair point. Just above useless eaters ;) Some smart ones lurking tonite |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 80942812 Canada 10/01/2022 01:43 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Friday said that farmers in Florida need illegal immigrants "to pick the crops" as she called for "comprehensive immigration reform" and said there was a shortage of workers in the U.S. Quoting: Coorslightly Pelosi was asked about whether the southern border is secure, and responded by saying that while "we have a responsibility to secure our border, we also have a responsibility to recognize the importance of newcomers to our nation." "Right now, the best thing that we can do for our economy is comprehensive immigration reform," she said. Democratic proposals for such reform typically include sweeping amnesties for illegal immigrants already in the U.S. Pelosi then pressed her economic argument and made reference to recent moves by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and other Republican governors to move illegal immigrants north to places like Martha’s Vineyard, New York City and Washington, D.C. "We have a shortage of workers in our country, and you see even in Florida, some of the farmers and the growers saying, 'Why are you shipping these immigrants up North? We need them to pick the crops down here,'" she said. [link to www.foxnews.com (secure)] -florida if I told her it was Georgia.. would she called em' cotton pickahs? |

The illegal immigrants get fake papers and real Social Security numbers to pass as legal to get jobs. They pay federal income tax and all the other stuff that's taken out of our checks. However their fake papers aren't good enough, and don't match the SSNs, so they don't get tax refunds and will never be able to collect benefits. |
