I wonder what the farmers think of your grand plan to have food stamp recipients and the homeless work for them?
They either can't work or don't want to. What could possibly go wrong.
Farm work, especially in Hawaii, is the bottom of the ladder. Instead of forcing people down, other people can climb up from where it's even worse - in the Third World. Then you have a motivated workforce. Without cheap labor, prices here will soar and the US will no longer be able to compete. And all just so the xenophobes can feel smug.
There should be more legal immigration, to Hawaii and elsewhere. We should not have labor shortages. If there is no legal pathway then illegal will follow, it's simple economics.
Something very distasteful about assigning characteristics to whole "races", where have I heard that before.
