Sometimes libs don’t realize their mask slipped. “They do the jobs we won’t” is bougie shit. People will do anything that pays well enough, isn’t abusive or unnecessarily dangerous, and doesn’t involve being housed in a bunk on-site.

These migrant workers are being abused by capitalists, and arguably we aren’t even seeing the savings anyway, for what that would be worth.

Anything else.

It’s a sunk cost.

It’s hurting you to keep investing in it.

Your reasoning is the exact reasoning of someone who keeps investing into a sunk cost.

Being aware of the reality of the situation doesn’t mean you support it.

Sounds like we need to start punishing companies instead of desperate people. I’m sure Trump will get right on that

Great point. People would take farming jobs if the pay was decent and all of those abusive “festures” you mentioned are missing.

Should change the phrase to “They do the jobs we would never do for such little pay and benefits.”
