It's not like American citizens are lining up to do those jobs. Otherwise folks from the Rust Belt would have gotten new jobs already.

That's the real kicker, isn't it? "They're stealing our jobs"... but nobody else is willing to do said jobs.

Correction: Nobody is willing to do said job for what they want to pay.

I've worked in agriculture (doing maintenance) and tbh I'm not going to go work in a field in the sun all day for less than like, $25 an hour or something; it's absolutely brutal work. I wish every American would go do it for a summer or two, it might make us appreciate that $.50 cucumber a little more.

About

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis aspires to be the same kind of Autocrat despised by the founders of the United States. He must be exposed for what he is: a great threat to our Democratic Republic and American values. Republicans don't punish big businesses like the Walt Disney Company for disagreeing with them. Fascists do. DeSantis and those like him are a massive threat to our Democracy.
