unskilled workers should start a gofundme

[DBTrek]

Each nation should be responsible for their own unskilled underclass rather than exporting them to neighboring countries.

Not talking about illegal immigration.

Well, I’m talking exclusively about it. We have a name for people from other countries who undergo the legitimate process of becoming US citizens - “Americans”.

If you can’t be bothered to consider what they provide, then it’s pretty simple. And these guys love simple.

We all know what they provide, and it’s often not worth minimum wage. So the odds that the benefits offset the systemic costs is zero. Taxpayers heavily subsidize illegal labor (and education, and medical, and transportation, and utilities, and on and on) and a few businesses get cheap labor (because taxpayers pay the rest of the costs)
Derp.

But you know, everyone will starve if we don’t keep mass exploiting the labor of illiterate foreign field peasants, or something.

Think about what you just said.

“The work is not worth minimum wage”.

So what do you think happens when we suddenly have to pay minimum wage to do it?

If you take away my slaves, I'll have to actually pay my workers.

[Okeefenokee]

The wage rises until the work gets done by Americans, or the work (which is unprofitable without illegal labor and taxpayer subsidies) doesn’t get done.

Crazy, eh?

Correct. And it’s how a market is supposed to work.

But AGAIN, for probably the 30th time, you cannot transition from current state to future state overnight.

If you mass deport the illegals, prices go up, and less food is produced. We agree on this.

What happens to the rest of the world when they aren’t getting cheap American food? Starvation.

What happens when farmers all start screaming about the low prices? Subsidies like the world has never known.

So your instant fix-it retarded solution has created: starvation, loss of profits, human misery, and bigger government. Winning?

This is 100% horseshit. You are not a farmer. You know jack shit about food production.

No I did not. I argued against cutting them all off in some grand gesture. Because it would result in mass starvation.

But I know you can only think in binary, so sure. SJW open-borders.

Mass starvation for whom?

Large portions of Africa and the third world that depend on our agro exports.

And? How is that the responsibility of the US?

if we’re only allowed to discuss our professional expertise, your post count should be around 12.

Because we intentionally created that situation by subsidizing the shit out of Big Ag, and driving small food producers out of business globally.
