Machia voted for Trump, drawn by promises of border control and national security. “We didn’t want drugs or gangbangers,” he said. But what he didn’t expect was losing some of his most dedicated employees to immigration arrests.
“It’s scaring the farming community,” Machia admitted. “We didn’t think they’d come for the people who help us milk cows.”
LOL. Idiots
If they’re milking their own cows at 4 A.M. and complaining that there’s no migrants to do the work, then one has to wonder if it’s because they couldn’t hire a citizen at the rates they were paying. If they can’t hire a citizen at the rates they’re paying well…
…it means that citizens are too far above manual labor. Still doesn’t necessitate exploitation.
It doesn’t necessarily mean that at all, that is your own personal opinion, not fact. Pay people a decent livable wage and they will perform your manual labour.
You think they were paying a decent, livable wage?
Obviously not. That’s why they can’t hire people that aren’t at risk and exploitable.
This is why they want to fill the tech sector with h1b migrants. If they lose their job, they have a narrow window to find another corporate sponsor, or they get deported. This makes even the well paying, white collar, market exploitable in the same way we exploit migrant labor for farms.
all wage slavery is exploitation
L take, unless sarcasm
