We already know. The answer is: poorly.

Do you think these ~~people~~ fuckheads are missing something the rest of us presume all others have, like object permanence?
What if they can't imagine ripe produce rotting in the fields?
Read the comments section on various WSJ articles when these sorts if aetickes are published. The solution is always and every time that American workees are lazy, so take away all and any oftheir benefits and that will force them to work.
Indentured slavery of thwir fellow citizens appears to be the answer, instead of indentured slavery of immigrants
Nterstibgky in Australia when the point comes uo it's always and everybtiine pay more and offer better conditions.
We never seem to rin oit of people for banking ot finance jobs, sone start uo selling crystal eggs you shove in the eye of your cock to ward away evil spirits or whatever , just farm labouring , construction etc why is that?
"unskilled labor" is an excuse I've heard regarding removal of rights and safety net.
They won't have to imagine it if this shit gets passed. It's a foregone conclusion that it's what will 100% happen.
I'm not too familiar with that specific Georgia's law, but from the article it cracks down on illegal immigration and the companies that hire them.
I don't think that this specific law is the issue, illegal immigration and all the exploitation of vulnerable people that come with that status needs to end.
How about we end it by legalizing them and letting them continue to do their jobs if they want to do them?
There is a process for legalising them which they can go through.
I doubt you have looked into what that process entails or you wouldn't be saying that. So how about we just legalize their presence and let them continue to do their jobs if they want to do them? They're paying taxes and contributing to the economy.
I do think that the immigration processes need an overhaul, but this is one of the things i would describe as a necessary evil. I don't think America (or any developed country for that matter) would fare well if they were to make immigration and citizenship attainment a very easy process.
Would developed countries be able to control the potential security risks, increased labour markets, lower wages and housing scarcity that would occur as a result of massive migration from the third world? I personally don't think so.
No one said anything about citizenship. Don't muddy the waters. This is about legal immigration status so that they can work.
These are people who are already here. Again, this is not what we are talking about.
Fair enough. I might've misunderstood your argument a little there.
Is the process reasonable? No, of course it's not, because that's the point. You can't abuse citizens as much as you can abuse foreigners. If you don't believe me, move to a different country and find out.
