    Well, we all will have to pay more but that the way it is.

    Well is a chain, if they have to pay more to produce the goods they have to charge more for the products, doesn't capitalism work like that?

    Only if they want to keep the same profit margin and the market will pay this new price. If the market will not pay this new price, then they make less profit.

    I know you're right, but a few of the big companies (what i really mean is NONE) are willing to make less money so like it or not the illegal immigrants are going to be the easy way to save money.

    People like Sharon Angle... Christine O'Donnell... Jan Brewer... Ben Quayle... Rand Paul... they're all lunatics. But they're also lunatics who are happy to spew out Chicken Soup For The Soul simple-solutions to complex problems that their followers can't really understand.

    when you give a fool a microphone, you'll usually find a bigger fool who's willing to listen to them.

    You won't have to pay more. Big Agra will just make less profit. The market will bear what the market will bear.

    nope. They'll offshore crop production (look at Brazil's burgeoning agricultural economy), profits and prices will remain the same, and the only change will be that there'll be a lot fewer producers in the United States.

    Well that may be true in the end but that is another issue altogether.
