Do they not understand that Medicaid recipients work? Often full time jobs or even multiple.

When will they have time to labor for farmers? Are they quitting their jobs? In that case they will need at least minimum wage, and farm workers get sub minimum wage, so the food system will collapse due to skyrocketing prices.

This is why we can only get immigrants to do the job in the first place.

I work on a farm in Canada and holy fucking shit, us local people have NOTHING on the temporary workers coming up from Mexico. They are insanely skilled at what they do!
