Immigration Enforcement and Increasing Farmworker Wages

Chickenshit? Really WikiPostingFraud! I don't cut and paste from other sources and claim the words as my own. And I disagree with Governor Johnson on this issue. However, in Johnson's defense, he would work to change the law, not just ignore it. Allowing people who are not allowed to work in this country to work is an artificial increase in labor. The labor market consists of those eligible to work here. Since your industry relies on cheap illegal immigrant labor, I'd expect you to oppose the enforcement of current immigration laws.

By the way, what was that poll you won awhile back? You prove you're worthiness daily.

I could care less if they enforce it or not. I would just like some linear thought on it.

Speaking of linear thought...Why is it ok to ship manufacturing jobs overseas for cheap labor and then turn around and buy those products?

This country was build with cheap labor btw...from the Irish on.

Quit trying to make this about me and try and stay on topic.

Enforce immigration laws.

Do you believe in open borders like the person you voted for, Gary Johnson?

You would have bitching at me for helping slaves escape because it was against the law if we lived in the 1850?

Martin Luther King, Jr.'s comment in his famous letter from Birmingham Jail: "One has not only a legal but a moral responsibility to obey just laws. Conversely, one has a moral responsibility to disobey unjust laws."

No. I agree with enforcing immigration laws.

No. I disagree.

COG always wants folks to answer his questions yet seems to be having trouble admitting that the libertarian position on illegal immigration is for open borders. With a slight deference to terrorism security. None at all on jobs.

The Grand Inquisitor! COG, the Whiny Salina glory hole practitioner.

People get sued for that shit everyday. Yes they are responsible for the jobsite, and if some hooker slips and falls on your property, you can get sued, too.
Legitimate homebuilders and their subs pay 15% of payroll or more for workmen's comp, while fly by night sleazeballs and their "subs" have fucked up "accident and injury" policies.
