“We’re looking at doing something where in the case of good, reputable farmers, they can take responsibility for the people that they hire, and let them have responsibility, because we can’t put the farms out of business, and at the same time, we don’t want to hurt people that aren’t criminals,” Trump told reporters.
Sounds a lot like slavery to me
Yep. Keep them as slaves. Or very close to it. It’s so obvious. Due to everything that’s happening the immigrants will be in fear and desperation. They’ll work for below minimum wage in horrid conditions and be too afraid to do anything about it.
That was my 1st thought. “Let the owners take responsibility for them” sounds an awful lot like indentured servitude. If at any point, their boss could decide to simply rescind that protection and have them deported, then they’re basically trapped.
He’s saying the quiet part out loud again.
Like, yeah dude, we all know the reason why we demonize “illegal” immigrants so much is so that they can be exploited for cheap labor. You don’t gotta rub it in our faces.
yes, this is what will happen, but don’t delude yourself into thinking this is new
what you describe has been the reality of agriculture (and other industries) for a while now, and not just in the US, it’s this way in canada too for example
