Farmers Complain About New Immigration Laws That Have Decreased Their Revenues Less Tax Money For Washington As Well October 21. 2011
In the October 19, 2011, article entitled "The Obama Administration Has Deported A Record Number Of Immigrants In 2011" the Judiciary Report stated, "Many illegal immigrants are also vital to the farming, construction, food and hospitality industries in America, representing billions of dollars to said sectors of business. Therefore, what the Obama Administration has done via these deportations is also financially unsound." Two days later, on October 21, 2011, the site's claims have been proven true, as a number of farmers in the U.S. state of Alabama have come forward to denounce the state's immigration law, as scaring immigrants away and costing them a lot of money in revenue (during a financial depression, of all times). The above posted Associated Press video features people in the agriculture industry stating, "Few Americans take immigrants' jobs in Alabama" and it is damaging the farming industry. The same pattern is repeating itself in each and every state the Obama Administration deported a record number of 400,000 immigrants, who have done jobs many Americans do not want to do. The video reveals many Americans find the field work too taxing and either quit or do not return to the farm after lunch. Another farmer stated the Americans that attempted to do the jobs immigrants did on his farm, were not physically fit enough and did not have the mental grit to endure such strenuous labor in the fields all day. Barack Obama's administration has deported a record 400,000 people for the year I'm going to be honest, I am a legal immigrant, always have been, I don't think I'm better than anyone, but I always take my hat off to people, immigrant to the States or American or world citizen in their respective nations, for doing farm work and construction jobs, as it is physically grueling. I remember once I did the majority of the work renovating an old home we'd bought and it was like a full time job. Some nights I was so tired after working on the house, I would fall asleep on the living room floor. Then, there was the gardening aspect of restoring an out of control set of gardens on four sides of the house, that needed cutting, pruning, new plants, stone borders, digging a water feature and maintenance, all of which would wear me out in the hot southern sun (Florida). So once again, I commend people that are able to do farming and construction work, as what I experienced for a few months is a mere fraction of what they do 5-6 days a week, year after year. To deport someone for seeking a better life is wrong. Not to mention, they are playing a vital role in the economy. They don't just come to America and get loads of benefits and begin living off the state. It does not work that way. They deserve a chance to work and a path to citizenship. |
