Farming industry in Florida is having a meltdown after the right wing government passed a bill sharply limiting immigrant labor in the state.
I mean…you get what you vote for.
Red states aren’t poor because they make smart moves.
It just never fails lol
Ppl get up in arms over bullshit culture wars
Ppl vote in Republican gov
Ppl get upset when Republican gov restricts rights and hurts avg Americans
Ppl go on social media and say “I didn’t vote for this” when they absolutely did.
Republicans have never done anything good for anyone in the last 60 years. Ppl get what they vote for. Less rights, and less economic prosperity.
@BlastBunny @cassandra17lina In the 80s the Republican Party became the “pro-life” anti-abortion party thus aligning themselves with the conservative Christian movement in government. We haven’t been the same since.
Newt Gingrich was the first modern Republican to propose a zero negotiation with Democrats as well.
@BlastBunny @cassandra17lina Yes I remember Newt. He’s when it really went to hell in a hand basket.
@cjcrew @BlastBunny @cassandra17lina
It was a conscious choice to make abortion their central issue when they realized they couldn't (openly) continue to make it race.
@tyghebright @BlastBunny @cassandra17lina It brings in the big bucks. They are getting bolder in their racism, even if they don’t say it out loud, their actions are screaming it.
Farm work is back breaking labor and few Americans have the skills (yes, it requires skills) and the willingness to do it.
We really need, as a nation, to make seasonal work immigration easy. And when I say need, I'm not talking ethics and morals. I mean the economy relies on it, yet the laws keep getting in the way.
@BlastBunny Agricultural interests in North Carolina can’t get the labor they need as MAGA Republicans dither about border “security.” Democrats need to hit this issue hard!
