@Cliff-Mashburn saidWell I guess YOU will volunteer to pick fruit that now is left rotting on the vine for lack of farm workers. ICE has scared off the LEGAL ones so there is ALREADY a shortage of farm workers. So when will YOU go out picking avocado's?
I wish they'd stop saying that. Almost 340 million population, we need large numbers of immigrants like we need a hole in the head.
Got tent cities in all our major cities and many smaller ones, over half the country living paycheck to paycheck, WTF do we need a huge number of immigrants for?
@AverageJoe1 saidActually ignoring the positive contributions of a diverse workforce would be far more likely to cause :"reduced performance".
The CEO of Starbucks just announced that he is, in the interest of cost cutting, laying off 1100 corporate employees.
Your reasoning of this highly-regarded factual study would dictate that they must be sure to pick and choose who they lay off on....based on what factors?
On their failure to be as effective as another employee?? No, not that. Of course, that is ...[text shortened]... rmance? Would you attach a copy of the Psychological Article to your correspondence?? Marauder??
What you call "common sense" is just following what you are told and not examining the facts for yourself. I trust data and science a lot more than "common sense".
@sonhouse saidYou seem to be the only one on the horizon who preaches this point....who will pick crops. I have the answer,,,,,,,,a program is instituted (to vet these aliens)....we simply decide who needs how many laborers, and we hire them from Mexico. Give them different cards, instead of Green Cards, maybe purple. So, that is IT, Sonhouse. Geez.

ANd we had people from 190 countries coming in, we will only have Mexicans now. Yes, we will discriminate.
Oh, Marauder??? He would say, no no no, we have to have a diverse crowd of laborers, and he has his reasons. A study was done!!! aaarrrgggggggghhh.
Wouln't you think Mexicans would rather work with other Mexicans? We can all speak spanish, too. Can't speak Yemminneese.
@my-king-and-i removed their quoted postWell, I am white and I actually DID pick fruit when I was in college.
It was interesting, working with a bunch of hobos, instructive, like living in a documentary.
I also did roofing ATT. It was hot work but I survived.
@AverageJoe1 saidYeah, till our produce starts costing 5 bucks for a head of lettuce.

The S H I T show of Trump has just begun.
@sonhouse saidhow does this statement relate to hiring mexicans, however many needed, to pick our crops.
Yeah, till our produce starts costing 5 bucks for a head of lettuce.
The S H I T show of Trump has just begun.
and was it you that said something about let dying in the field or something dying on the vine. How could that happen? If we hired all the Mexicans we need to pick them. Your statement is somewhat empty or groundless.
@sonhouse saidYou are right, everything is happening so fast no one has gotten a handle on dealing with this new age. It will be a barn burner.!! Eggs are down. gas is way down/. trump said when got in to watch gas drop. a regular soothsayer....or, just smart.
Then where are they? We need farm workers RIGHT NOW.

@AverageJoe1 saidYep, eggs have suddenly dropped $3.00 per dozen from two days ago and are headed lower. Took awhile to make up for Biden have 100 million chickens killed.

Nice of the democrats to blame Trump for what Biden did .
@no1marauder saidWe disagree again. I go for common sense.
