[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FYI Trump also wants foreign workers. He acknowledged that many farmers and hotels have been hurt by the raids.

Why do you think only rich people should be able to afford strawberries at $15 per?[/quote]

So we should exploit people so that low income people can afford strawberries??

More people can grow their own. Or be paid a higher wage with less downward pressure on wages, and might even be able to splurge on $15 strawberries sometimes. 
And maybe they don’t need to be a year round readily available thing.

The world is changing. Maybe teach your kids some practical skills.[/quote]

Rabbits savage the strawberries. But if we all get poor enough, we’ll have to start eating the rabbits. So that might help. We grow various berries in our yard. It’s a nice thing to do if you have some space.

It might become a necessary thing to do.

I think what people don’t understand is that Trump is really about taking us back to the 19th century.

Before we had the Fed, there were depressions, crashes, and financial panics all the time. It’s in any US history book.

While this is still kind of a fringe idea, some people on the right wing side of the political divide want to get rid of the federal reserve.

In the end, the sort of plan (I use that term loosely) is to make the country much poorer for the vast majority. The 20th century will be undone and when we will be back to the 19th century.

That means you will be growing potatoes. That means you might have to work a really low wage job. It could get really ugly. Thinking ahead and being flexible is a good idea.

It remains to be seen what kind of political resistance there would be if we took some major steps in that direction. It’s simply too soon to tell.

But across the industrialized world, it’s clear that average citizens don’t want huge waves of immigration. I might personally disagree, but I’m clearly not in the majority. [/quote]
