    In your dreams. You think Trump will fuck with rural farmers and rich industrialists who own factories that hire these undocumented immigrants? Or do you think somehow the leeches will relent and give fair wages to Americans to work the fields? What do you think would REALLY happen?

      I expect it to be imperfect, but for the majority of the illegal labor force to be deported. Then either the companies will either be understaffed or start hiring legal workers.

      Prices will most likely rise, but so will wages for those types of jobs. And frankly, I’d rather a little higher prices than for unethical lower prices
