yes, exactly. and then what do those poor lazy people do when prices on all those goods rise because of the increased labor costs? the exact same situation all over again.
Oh no not increased labour costs, clearly abusive working conditions are better than having to pay more for labour. If you can't do affordable strawberries without using illegal immigrants as your workforce then I'd say we probably should do without affordable strawberries.
we're not just talking about strawberries. we're talking about literally all food production. construction. service industries. landscaping. it's simply a fantasy to think we could "do without" all that stuff or kick out all of the people doing these jobs and magically fill the positions with out of work citizens. the unemployment rate is already about as low as it could be at 4.1%.
Here's an idea: open the borders AND give people decent work condition.
absolutely. at no point did i argue against decent work conditions for anyone.
