Now, if we don't allow illegal immigrants to do the farm jobs, eventually wages will stabilize at a rate Americans will accept, once farm owners adapt to the new reality (with a big cut to their profit margins). Or, if they cannot turn a profit at any wage acceptable to Americans, then the farms will mechanize or shut down. If more mechanization is too expensive, we'll end up cutting our farm production and exporting less food. If it's extreme enough a shift, we might become a net importer of food. Are any countries net exporters of food? The concept seems odd to me, even for countries with a cash crop (bananas, whitefish, etc.). Also, another possible reality is that produce becomes "organic" (as in locally sourced) and prices raise significantly across the board. --- Fighter: "Mr Pibb", "Dr Pepper".. I'm onto you..

Beef, veggies... it's a global juggling game like debt trading. --- Fighter: "Mr Pibb", "Dr Pepper".. I'm onto you.. Kaz Fact: Welcome to Version 2.0! |

Yet those jobs remain unfilled and the crops continue to rot. When theory meets reality without factoring time and effort. But also the stigma of menial labor. "I have a college education, why am I cleaning the toilet" feeling. If it pays as well as a mechanic or surgeon, welcome to a socialist utopia. But more likely, a mechanical solution will arise (see: Roomba ver#1041) and a new low-managerial job opens. Jakyl25 posted... so it's cool for slaves to rebel because they have no representation in government. Humans love slaves... or at least an established, easy-to-follow heirarchy. Stability and efficiency at the cost of repression. Aren't morals just reinterpretations of religious philosophy? Until then, foreigners (also women and gays and the disabled) are just soulless heathen akin to cattle to live or die at the whims of the moral high-fathers? Lying and ambition are a sign of an exemplary child, or to the extreme, a dangerous adult. --- Fighter: "Mr Pibb", "Dr Pepper".. I'm onto you.. Kaz Fact: Welcome to Version 2.0! |
