  1. And that’s like the second or third time you have called me a RACIST on this form. So I guess you don’t have to worry about Adam Montana.
  2. Not what I said at all. I said they can’t find enough legal people to work the farms. That could be US citizens or legal migrant workers. So you can keep that RACIST crap to yourself. And how did I know you wouldn’t respond to this?..............Because you are dead wrong.
  3. Normally I would agree 100% but I’m afraid we might be passed that point. Just to many here. Maybe come up with some system that they would have to do more than a person who came in by the right way. What that might be I got no idea.
  4. Sorry thought I responded yesterday might not have gone through. So illegal aliens should not be counted as citizens or have representation. But we could give them a path to citizenship so the farmers could continue to find workers. We can get them paying taxes and the like. That path could include many things that they would have to do to obtain citizenship. One thing I would like to see is they should learn English. Or pay back taxes. Just as some examples. If they don’t agree to this path for citizenship, then deport them.
  5. Our agricultural system would collapse’ if Trump starts mass deportations, says farm worker advocate https://www.businessinsider.com/trumps-deportation-agriculture-2017-2 A “Climate of Fear” Accelerates Existing Labor Shortages on California’s Farms Gilbert Castellanos said he remembers when people “would fight each other to work in the fields.” Today, Castellanos struggles to find enough workers to complete the harvest on his 300 acres of oranges, stone fruits, and grapes in California’s Central Valley. He has abandoned plots because he couldn’t find enough workers to harvest them. “Now there is no one,” he said, “for the last three or four years. Every year it’s getting worse.” Castellanos isn’t the only one worried that the once-endless stream of field hands – the majority of whom are undocumented, Mexican-born immigrants – has dried up in California. According to the California Farm Bureau Federation, about 70 percent of Californian farmers reported that they struggled to find workers in 2018, compared with 23 percent in 2014. One farmer interviewed anonymously for this survey said that because of the labor shortage, “We have reduced strawberries from 80 to 17 [acres] in 2018; we had to walk away from half the field because we did not have enough employees to harvest the whole field. This year we only planted 9 acres of strawberries.” https://west.stanford.edu/news/blogs/and-the-west-blog/2019/climate-fear-accelerates-existing-labor-shortages-california-s-farms 🤔
  6. I mean how can you debate against someone who has delivered some tomato’s who knows more that a 2nd generation tomato farmer that has been working the farm for over 40 years. Too smart for little o me! You know I think 2+2 = 4. When I graduate I will let you know.
  7. But yet you post articles from extreme right wing media and claim it as gospel! The article you just posted if from the extreme right wing! https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/political-insider/ What you think they are going to say.........Trumps lies?😂
  8. Thanks but it’s not the reporter as you stated but the editor..........big difference. JMO
  9. Dude just telling you what a FL tomato farmer told me. Since you know more that a 2nd generation tomato farmer, maybe you missed you’re calling!........smh. I said he tried to hire legal people. Understand English. That’s what you say to me all the time.
  10. Biden has constantly said he doesn’t want to defund the police. And out of your mouth. What does he have to do, come out every day and say he doesn’t want to defund the police. Works both ways don’t it!
  11. I know a tomato farmer in FL. He has said he has tried to hire legal people. He can’t find enough to work the farm and it’s not even close. He said if all the people were rounded up and deported the agriculture economy in the US would collapse. You would be paying quadruple the price for tomatoes if you could get them at all. Strawberries lettuce.........everything.
  12. It’s also a flat out lie when Trump supporters post on here that Biden wants to defund the police, Supports Rioting and looting in the streets. Support ANTIFA. And they do it CONSTANTLY! ...........Why ........because the President of the United States Lies about the same thing daily!
  13. Your too nice JD!..........but on the money!👍
