When the US interned the those with Japanese ancestors during WWII, nobody else stepped in to take over their crops. The result was shortages instead of a change in who did the work.
Which is what happened much more recently in Florida and Georgia when those states passed draconian immigration bills. Produce was left rotting in the fields because nobody else besides these immigrants are willing to do the job for the wages offered. And nobody is going to pay $20 for a head of lettuce in the grocery store so the farmers can pay fieldworkers white man’s wages.
Niiiice. Let those union Trump voters suffer. Maybe they can go pick lettuce for $2/hr.
Wait till they learn about how much less they’ll make picking blueberries and tomatoes. Lettuce will be like caviar for monies.

either way we’ll have war rationing soon enough.
Or maybe they’ll start paying a good wage.
I ain’t paying $16 for a head of lettuce!!
Don’t worry, I’m sure those immigrants will be the one paying for the lack of cheap labor …. Somehow
what is your understanding of how this could happen
Are you familiar with the concept of “unions”? It’s a similar principle, starve the company of labor, the company pays more.
please complete your thought. are you saying the tariffs starve the company of labor?
I think that I replied to the wrong comment, odd.
