Quote:

I mentioned going to the high school in Roscoe, I also went to the cotton gin in Roscoe. And at that cotton gin, there are 24 jobs and the manager of that gin says it does not matter the wages that I pay or the number of hours that we set no one born in Roscoe or Texas or this country who is willing to work. But there are immigrants who are coming from Central America or Mexico or other parts of the world to Roscoe to work these jobs and to help build our economy. [Emphasis added]

---

This guy is so full of crap, this is just a flat lie and he knows it. We had a cotton gin outside of Chilton too, I think it was in Cego, he is so full of crap, I worked in the cotton fields 6 consecutive summers, I had friends who worked the Gin, ethnicity had nothing to do with it. We all did the work.

Punk ass just needs to go away, he is fake, his answers are fake and he is full of ***** Yes, metro guys like him never showed up in the fields or gins or barns or hay fields to do the hard work, real guys do that.

---

I worked in cotton fields, too. But that was 45 years ago or more. A lot has changed since then.

It seems to be generally true that farmers like the ones I worked for have trouble finding US-born workers to fill all those jobs anymore.

Several years ago, when Alabama launched a crackdown against immigrant labor, the farmers practically revolted. Their crops were rotting in the fields for lack of workers. In places like Iowa and Kansas, food processing plants would shut down without immigrant labor. It's a real problem.

---

This is not how a free market system works. Without immigrant labor, they would not shut down, they would pay higher wages and come up with better working conditions and incentives until they had the workers they needed to do the job. The price of food would go up, but they would not shut down and leave us with nothing to eat.

---

Yeah, it's a nice theory, but it has run up against some harsh realities in Alabama, Iowa and other parts of rural America where agribusiness is big.

Alabama farmers would tell you that they don't have anywhere close to the ability to pass along higher labor costs as market theory would predict. Instead, they get squeezed.

And the cost of labor is far from the only issue. Talk to employers in manufacturing and food processing across Heartland America, and you hear the same thing over and over and over: they can't find enough people who can pass a drug test. And of those who can pass a drug test, they can't find enough who will show up regularly for work on time. They rely on immigrant labor (legal and otherwise) to fill the gap. Take away immigrant labor, and the disruption to their industries is huge. That's why Republican farmers in Alabama revolted against Republican leadership in the statehouse.

---

Here is what I have never understood about the immigrant farm labor issue . . . how many more illegals do American farmers need? There are already 11 to 20 million of them here. You would think that is enough to fill the void of "Americans will not do this work."

Do we need another 5 million? 30 million? Seems like an economist could easily figure that out.

---

The market beats an economist any day. Deregulate immigration and let's go.

---

Then what is the point of boarders at all? If there are no boarders, how can there be a sovereign state?

---

I don't agree with deregulating immigration (my statist side is showing). Just grant enough work permits for unskilled laborers to let the supply meet the demand legally rather than illegally.

This does not have to involve a pathway to citizenship for those who come on work permits. And we don't have to give them permanent residency if they happen to have children here who automatically are American citizens, though we could allow their work permits to be renewed.
