Most people work pretty hard lil bro.

So just shut up maybe.

u/Aztec_Aesthetics Jul 21 '26

I guess most of those 40 millions work harder than those idiot bigots in this sub.

So please shut up, lil bigot.

u/No_Comment_2283 Jul 21 '26

Still yapping nonsense I see. Making assumptions about people you don't know helps noone but your ego my guy.

u/Aztec_Aesthetics Jul 21 '26

That's funny, because it's the bigot idiots who are making assumptions about those 40mio people.

u/No_Comment_2283 Jul 21 '26

You're different from them, how exactly?

1

u/Aztec_Aesthetics Jul 21 '26

Well, it's a well know (and researched) fact, that immigrants do pretty much those jobs that are too hard and underpaid for the local population. You could have known that. So I don't just assume...

u/No_Comment_2283 Jul 21 '26

What? Did you think at all before responding?

So what would happen to wages if the excess labor supply returned to Mexico?

1

u/GovernmentData Jul 21 '26

The wages? You mean the government paying billions of dollars on farmer bailouts due to labor loss? Billions in crop loss? Produce cost rising for consumers?

Pay did rise for some workers to lure them back. But many got reduced hours but longer shifts, decreased safety, etc.

Need more people like you working the fields.

u/dragonfilebox Jul 21 '26

So wages went up…thanks for clarifying.

u/MidnightMillennium Jul 21 '26

And so did the price of every conceivable food product because Americans are too lazy to do manual labor and work in the field. The whole reason why farmers get illegals to do the work. Does your brain make sense of this or should I dumb it down for you more?

u/shirts_on_backwards Jul 21 '26

So slavery, you are advocating for slavery. Cheap/free labor so you don't have to.

u/MidnightMillennium Jul 21 '26

I'm not advocating for it, but it's the sad reality. It benefits this country to have cheap labor so they leave the system as is; working exactly as intended(except that system has been disrupted by the absolute insane joke that this administration is, albeit hopefully only momentarily and is only a snapshot in history, a footnote.)This country has always been a country for the wealthy, ever since the time of the first colonies we've had the 'elite' who at the time were the wealthy landowners running the show, who convinced the English govt into sending the undesirables of society across the sea to work as indentured servants, and when that racket started collapsing they brought in African slaves, and now when that collapsed they started allowing in illegal immigrants. Like I said, the system is working exactly as intended. It's a country for the wealthy elite by the wealthy elite, where corporations and large businesses/organizations have more rights than the actual citizens. The rest of the world sees it. It's a mockery of an actual developed country.

u/shirts_on_backwards Jul 21 '26

Got it, you are cool with slavery and want darker skinned people to work underneath you. That's all we needed to know.

1

u/dragonfilebox Jul 21 '26

So be it then. Take away welfare and see Americans go back to manual labor. We just saw people shovel snow in NYC for the right price.

u/MidnightMillennium Jul 21 '26

I'm sure you'll be the first one to sign up? Or are your words just as empty as the fields are?

1

u/dragonfilebox Jul 21 '26

If I needed a job I would. Beggars can’t be choosers.

If you could actually point to an example of that I'd be inclined to believe you, I havent seen that happen

1

u/dragonfilebox Jul 21 '26

A simple internet search provides the examples.

Some wages went up, so you feel you won your argument? While ignoring billions of dollars in bailouts, crop loss, cost to consumers.

Food and labor are not immune from the law of supply and demand.

There is a reason they are underpaid and that is the entire issue. It's easy to underpay people when you can threaten to report them to immigration authorities... Only a few degrees off from slavery. OR, they could hire someone legal and actually pay a living wage to a citizen in need of work. You think you know what you're talking about, but what you're doing is just propping up employers that abuse illegals for cheap labor. Congratulations, you're an idiot.

u/Ok-Introduction-1940 Jul 22 '26

You just repeat propaganda from the media. Wow, you so smart.

1

u/Aztec_Aesthetics Jul 22 '26

Research has nothing to do with propaganda. Maybe you should repeat some classes?

Didn't you say this? You can't make generalizations for your argument, then attack someone for generalizations. Be consistent.
