There's a lot overlooked in this article. Allow low skilled immigrants to do this work, but apply for citizenship, not just work Visas.

Another point missing is that other industries look at this as an excuse to outsource cheaper labor or import it with H1B visas.
#Disney -
Disney laid off thousands of IT professionals & imported H1B replacements that they had to train to take over their jobs.
#H1BReplacements -
Disney threatened it's workers being let go with no severance for not training their H1B replacements.

In the 70s, US clothing manufacturers closed Union shops and mills in favor of shops in Taiwan, Malaysia, Indonesia etc. for cheaper labor.

If you don't believe the impact...look at the cost of Levi's (1970s-80s) & present. Why are they more now without union labor?

So it's okay to brutally work immigrants & pay them low wages. Sounds a lot like a new century of slaves.

Actually, you did just imply that with our tweet. Low pay=slave labor.

If Americans were compensated fairly they would take these jobs, they did so long ago until they stopped taking it.

That has never been the case in American agriculture. Today's migrant workers were yesterday's sharecroppers.

The fact that immigrants improve the lives of Americans is irrelevant. If they're illegal, then they do not belong here.

But Trump hires them for his PB resort but that is perfectly fine. Great double standard.
