CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

If wages are not attracting enough workers, raise them until they do.

I don't think it's the wages, it's the type of work.
Moreover given slavery and various immigrants the US brought in to do that work, the only time Americans really did that kind of work was during The Great Depression and the Dust Bowl.
Moreover given today, kind of hard to raise wages in this environment of tariff induced cost increases.

If a type of work is looked down upon, unpleasant etc you have to pay a premium for labor. I know, farmers being exposed to any kind of upward pressure on labor costs is horrifying.
Farmers overwhelmingly voted for this. Now they get to deal with it.

Yet you quoted my post while apparently responding to something I didn’t say.

Game it out it in light of the obvious solution of just having a pathway to citizenship for those who have no issue with the type of work.

Because they are illegal they have no issue with it. You think these people are going to be good with maintaining a slave class as citizens? Why would we want that again, why would they?

If you have a pathway of citizen for them, then presto-chango, they are not illegal. I don't know about "slave class" specially if that pathway comes with worker protections to keep at bay rules like Texas who wanted to legally limit water breaks.
