Welfare next for illegal immigrant farm laborers being replaced by crop robots?

[wordcreatorushtwf]

Is the debate about giving citizenships to millions of illegal immigrants becoming irrelevant as technology begins to replace the need for today’s human labor required in planting and picking field crops?

One argument for legalizing the migrants that have crossed the U.S.-Mexican border unlawfully is that they are needed to plant and pick the crops that it is said Americans will not do. That may become mute as engineers begin testing a machine that uses laptop computer software and a robot to thin a field of lettuce. It replaces 20 field workers with one person.

The Left is weak on this subject.

But the Right is a liar on this subject. The Right WANTS this slave labor and only entertains it's voters into thinking they don't. They have had the power to end this in the past.

Mexicans will still be here because they aren't held to minimum wage for Construction/other.

Faking a resolve is weaker than finding a resolve, and that is fact.

Lots of Mexican carpenters here in Florida - but a lot more in yard work, tree pruning,orange harvesting. Soon enough a bot for oranges will surely come along too.

As the robots begin taking over the use of the human hands of illegal immigrants that now plant and pick crops, what will happen when there is no longer a use for their labor if they have been given citizenship rights that allows them to remain in the country and collect welfare?

jeese. just put the whole dang country on welfare - if you don't have skills, you aint gonna work.
