The correct thing to do, however, would be to let the illegals in to work. I mean, what happened to the idea of the home of the brave and land of the free? Did the US suddenly become afraid of people looking for work? Sad!  |
Guess you don't mind it I send over some Czechs to do your job for half your wages then.
The problem of letting them in is they don't always go back when the picking is finished. They go find jobs, painting houses, mowing lawns, then they want to bring their family over and the kids need educating, they don't have a medical plan, mortgage, etc.. Cheaper to pay $15 a pint for strawberries. There are no cheap routes, someone has to pay in the end.
