I was listening to Trump’s press conference late yesterday, where he and DHS head were talking about America’s farmers and smooth access for seasonal farm workers. Trump anticipated part of my concern and said “these are long-term workers who really understand the farms and crops they are working on… Farmers need them or we’d have no farms.”

YES - but America is about to have depression-levels of unemployed We can’t find any farm-workers among them?

You guessed it - if we could find folks to do seasonal labor (actual physical work) we wouldn't have farmers relying on imported seasonal laborers....How many of the latest 6 million new jobless do you think are up to the challenge?

Wait on them to pitch in to earn some money and the crops will rot in the fields and never make it to market.

We can if we make it so that working nets people more money than welfare.

Depression level of unemployed is absolutely right, if not worse. I don’t know anybody who is working now, and before this virus it was the opposite. I got laid off yesterday, and even if this thing is cured tomorrow, which it won’t be, it’s going to take a looong time to get things back to normal, if they can ever be. There’s always going to be that paranoia from now on about public places such as restaurants, movie theaters, concerts, trains, planes thanks to our panic inciting media.

Democrats picked one hell of a doozy when they colluded with the Chinese to get Trump out of office. But they don’t care, like all commies the people are expendable, Pelosi and Adam Schitt still have their jobs and money. They don’t waste anytime already setting up a committee for coup attempt #3. The people are expendable, more power for democraps must be the priority.........
