[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We really screwed up immigration and Covid and now things are coming home to roost. [/quote]

I support immigration, and my parents were immigrants. But take it up with the CEO's who don't want to pay Americans a living wage. [/quote]

That just becomes more inflationary. Vicious cycle when the work force is stretched. [b]I am all for a living wage, but it won’t change the food shortage. We need more workers[/b]. From other countries and from the US who are not sick. [/quote]

You say we need more workers, but you don't think paying them a living wage will change things?

Where do you think food comes from, a magic wand?

The chain is broken, because people are sick of being paid peanuts with bad/no benefits, for backbreaking work. The entire chain is broken - from the pickers to the grocery workers. Treat them better, and the workers will come. But hey CEO's, might need to dial back on your yacht or summer home. [/quote]

We do not have enough workers in the US. We need immigrants. And we need people who aren’t sick. [/quote]

And on a micro-level, I went to scream at these businesses to pay more. If their pay is higher than next door, they will get workers. But on a macro-level we need more workers. And the only place we can get them is from immigration. We are a country of immigrants. We need them. [/quote]
