Blame companies
Want to end the case for getting undocumented labor out of the United States? Here is the plan to do it once and for all. Don’t bother marching around our capitol buildings at the national or state levels in protest. Get people to block the labor going into the farms, meat packers, landscaping companies, restaurants; any place known to be using undocumented labor.
If labor is blocked out of these places, the entire food industry will see a skyrocketing of food prices. How long will the more than 50% of all Americans living paycheck to paycheck continue to support the politicians hellbent on purging the labor force of undocumented labor? How long will people who hire landscaping companies that use undocumented labor to do their yard work like their skyrocketing costs if those workers are replaced with higher priced labor?
Just remember why the undocumented labor came into this country in the first place. It was these very industries that picked many of them up by the busload at our southern border for years.
Why are not labor laws used that prohibit hiring of undocumented labor? Why are those business owners not put in jail for creating this problem in the first place? No wall is needed on our southern border if labor laws are simplify enforced.
We have made the undocumented worker the villain in this twisted thinking. It’s the greed of the business owner that is the true villain. There is so much hypocrisy involved in this issue. How can we say we are God-believing people when we twist this issue to protect the greed involved with it?
So now our leadership is going to cut off federal funds for cities that will not cooperate with the federal government? Federal officials better go after all the people who hire the undocumented worker first. Let the Americans who have enjoyed the benefits of the labor provided to them now enjoy the high prices they will have to pay for all the food they stuff in their mouths and watch the labor that takes care of their yards while they sit in the comforts of their homes and go to their jobs sitting at a desk.
