MODERATORS
Farmers will pay more to hire local workers and they can sell their products for more because everybody has to pay more. This will effectively rise minimum wage for every citizen because demand for legal workers will increase.
Are only the farmer short sighted or do the emotions in this post come from people who know what is coming? Soon there will be a time when prices for food will rise but wages have not adjusted. It's not the farmers who will work more but every above minimum wage worker whose wages don't adjust.
Regular citizens have profited of human trafficing and low wages for unskilled workers.
