Do you want food prices to increase by at least 20%?

Honestly, I am personally OK with that. Limiting immigration will drive up food costs.

Which is why a lot of arm states are very worried about immigration laws.

I think the threats of food price increases are BS.

What I want is for the market to determine food prices and not the gov't.

Long before open borders, we had a Bacero program where agriculture workers could come in seasonally, do their thing and go home. When I was a pup, we had a Mexican family who attended our church, fell in love with America and applied for citizenship after doing this for a decade or so.

Not one of their kids joined gangs, dealt drugs or lived off welfare. Most of them even married whites, got further education and moved on to other jobs.

The only reason such a program would not work today is because there is no incentive to sign up for it when our borders remain wide open and ignoring the law carries has fewer consequences (and more incentives) than following it.

The cost of food is negligible compared to the cost of losing our country.

...

And then technology will drive it back down. Modern slavery (use of illegal labor) hinders innovation.

Well, move to the far north of NH or VT. It's 100%

It'll happen, overnight. Food shopping desert. I'm a victim. Surrounded by all this distracting beauty.

Really? When I am at the grocers, it seems that quite a bit of the food, especially produce, comes from other countries.

Food prices have increased significantly over the past 15 years. It’s called shrinkage.
