View submission: What are the reasons millions of undocumented immigrants were allowed in the US? I don't recall ever hearing the most obvious reasons by politicians.

So you're cool with modern slave labor picking your food so it's cheaper?

No, and I’d argue most people who make this argument don’t like it either. But it *is* the grim reality of the scenario. The point of making this statement is to point out the *irony* that the “eggs are too expensive” single issue voters voted themselves into a situation where everything is going to get vastly more expensive rather than less. Because it turns out voting in a populist who campaigns on simple, easy solutions isn’t a good idea in the long term.

Wow, you got that from what I said? I swear, the reading comprehension skills of some people leave a lot to be desired. Of course I am not ok with that, and I did not say or even imply that I am.

I was simply saying that the people who voted for a tyrant because they thought food is too expensive now fucked around and are about to find out.
