New Farm Investments. Good News?

This is good news for our economy, EXCEPT...

More Illegals. More land being worked means more labor. These businesses won't pay a living wage because they CAN get Illegal labor.

In the very near future, you will see this being a talking point in Amnesty, or massive work visa, programs.

Just a suggestion (and I'm following my own advice), maybe we should be hitting our Congress and Senate HARD about it now.

I am sending this article to my reps with a letter that says that they need some legislation NOW to control this. It isn't like they aren't being forewarned!

My stances on this is CLOSE THE BORDERS (surprise) FIRST!

Then, NO Work Visa's UNLESS:

1. A working Visa tracking system that is fully funded and AGGRESSIVELY enforced.

2. Employers are vigorously monitored for legal workforce, and savagely penalized if they do not follow the rules.

3. NO ANCHOR BABIES! You bring in millions of workers for any length of time, especially Latinos, they are going to pop out babies. That's BS!

Prove to me that this is being done and as far as I'm concerned, bring in all the workers LEGALLY you want, but make sure Americans honestly get first shot at the jobs, the wages are fair (to keep ILLEGAL workers out, why pay for illegals if the same wage can get legal) .

With the WORLD food shortage, and America's efficiency at farming, plus biofuel production, this could be a chance to bring back our economy. Even if we can't get enough Americans to do the actual farm work, the production, transportation, accounting, etc of all this food/energy will create millions of good paying jobs. Once we get our own available lands producing, then we can help Mexico get THEIR production going. This will almost stop Illegal Immigration from the South!

This all sounds good, but the problem is the Investing companies are going to want maximum profits, and will take shortcuts, including Illegal workers. And our lousy Government will do NOTHING about it. This will just leave the middle calss American holding the subsidy costs, and the good jobs outsourced.

But, oh what an opportunity for America to grow and be a boon to the rest of the world for food.

Write those jerkoffs, TODAY!
