Normies, left right and center, are all programmed to respond with "But Americans won't do those jobs", and then cite some bullshit study they heard about which may or may not have some veracity to it. Frankly I don't even care if their study is correct and Americans are actively refusing those jobs. The thing is that if the wage for picking strawberries was high enough you'd have Americans fighting each other for the opportunity. Imagine if picking strawberries paid enough that a single year's wages was enough to outright purchase a good house in a high cost of living area, on par with lawyer or celebrity levels of purchasing power. You bet your ass Americans would do that job.
If an entire domestic industry relies on slave wages in order to function then it deserves to collapse.
Grr. No one was refusing any of those jobs. But welfare sure as fuck doesn't help hook you up with them.
Want a farm job, Mr or Ms White Canadian? Find it yourself, better have a car and be willing to commute. No bunk houses any more. And oh,, you need some ag courses. And understand Spanish.
Want a farm job It-Thing Immigrant? Here, we'll have a van to shuttle you, and places for you to live. You don't even have to speak of lick of English, and a Jethro level education is fine, just fine. Tickets? Ah, we can fake that for you.
And your conclusion is exactly the right conclusion. It's the inverse of what leftists say though. Leftists think if a person's wage isn't enough to live on, their wage should be higher. In reality, if a person's wage isn't enough to live on we should be questioning if that person should even be living then.
As it pertains to people born and raised here, it might be a difficult moral question but if these people in question that can't live on the wage are immigrants it becomes a much easier answer. Stop accepting immigrants into the country.
