GEEZE let’s see would I rather have our country invaded and CHANGED FOREVER or go without tomatoes and lettuce to close the damn border!! It’s a no brainer!!!
No kidding-it isn’t like they can’t take the trucks to a state where the governor isn’t insisting on inspecting for contraband-maybe try blue New Mexico-or Cali would be even better-I can do without Mexican avocados until the border is secure...
We are in the growing season here in Texas anyway-nearly all the fresh veggies in our local organic grocery are already grown and harvested here-from brussels sprouts to tomatoes from the Winter garden area in S Texas-most of the fresh berries, too-if most of that Mexican produce is not coming here, then it must be going to states that are still too cold for most produce-so let the trucks go to Cali or NM-closer to their market anyway-I’m being mean and I don’t care...
IF they are PROPERLY transported in REFRIGERATED trucks-—2 days won’t cause spoilage.
I guess I look at it in somewhat of an alternative manner. Growers, workers and many other middlemen in Mexico working, in Mexico, to produce goods wanted in the US.
I think I’d much rather have a free flow of that than supporting a California liberal-controlled vegetable produce machine that uses the taxes, etc. to impose California’s leftist will on the country.
