That’s a flippant response but doesn’t actually address any way forward.

Btw, machines harvest cotton so no need for anyone to do that anymore.

The questions OP posed are the same as those who asked who will pick cotton. The answer is the same: machines, other technology, or *gasp* actually paying Americans living wages.

America will be just fine.

Great. How do we get from where we are today to this nirvana you describe?

MAGA seems to believe magic is at play here? When will corporations start to pay these living wages you speak of? In 2025? 2026? And how will this adjustment take place? There are almost 500,000 unfilled manufacturing jobs in the U.S. right now. What policies will be enacted to fill the jobs we already have?

And who will pay for those increased wages?

I mean this is truer than you think. We have always had waves of immigrants here to do laboring jobs.

MAGA, you still didn't say what the plan is to address significantly higher food prices to account for either the robots or the living wages paid to Americans.

I have to laugh at MAGA crowing about paying living wages to Americans, when they basically waged war on McDonald's employees fighting for a living wage.

My grandparents and many relatives (aunts, uncles, cousins etc) worked and many still work in some of the jobs mentioned in this thread when they came to this country. Legally. The same can still happen.

So ironic that the Dems' modern day argument for being PRO illegal immigration is nothing more than being PRO slavery and arguing, "But who will think of the slave plantation owners!?".

Not when they are concentrated in a few industries. But why not answer the question?

How is it that almost every other country on Earth can do everything without mass illegal immigration on the scale like Dems support in America? Australia, New Zealand, Korea, Japan, China, Germany.....they all are capable of growing enough food, getting their hotels cleaned, and having staff to run restaurants without mass illegal immigration. Hell, been to Japan? Of the times their food is way cheaper than the US! Even after accounting for PPP and exchange rates, Japan doesn't need mass illegal immigration for food production and running restaurants.


Such a dumb Dem argument. Other countries have figured this out already.

LOL. Spoken like someone who has never been in any of those countries.

While you're it, PP, what else do those countries have that we don't have? You're so close to getting it.

Well OP, very telling that not a single reply answered your question thoughtfully or intelligently. Just snark and “someone else will figure it out. “

That means MAGA has no plan for America to have a strong economy. MAGA is not about strong country. As shown in these replies, MAGA is about retribution and destruction.

In the short term, it will result in rapid inflation in the industries where illegal immigrants are concentrated: agriculture, food, construction, hospitality (hotels, restaurants). Business owners in those industries will also fail rapidly who cannot afford to pay the labor prices and successfully pass on costs to their customers.

In the long term, the labor market may adjust by enticing more native born U.S. citizens to enter those industries through higher wages. However, if immigration policies ever change, Americans will leave those jobs again.

Obama deported more than Trump.

Biden deported more than Trump.

The country is still functioning.

What am I missing?

Housing prices will fall, because suddenly there will be a lot more "good" schools.

Who will work in agriculture? Meat packing? Service industry? I see a lot about “immigrants” being slave labor and that wages will have to go up to attract US citizens to these jobs. But that will lead to a huge increase in prices. And will US citizens move to where these jobs are located? Or is the idea that the government will subsidize the cost of relocating the jobs to where the people who currently rely on government handouts currently live?

What’s the plan?

I'm not speaking for "MAGA" and I'm not sure why the question was posed solely to them as they likely haven't thought that far ahead but I think the obvious answer lies within our decades long need for immigration law reform.

If and when we have a need immigrants to fill voids in our workforce, we need a more direct pathway to fill those voids through work visas geared towards all industries. This is referred to as legal immigration or just immigration by many. Filling these voids with undocumented immigrants awaiting asylum hearings in a post 9/11 world is nuts but that's essential what we've been doing for a long time.
