I saw a program on TV about Alabama getting rid of all of the illegals, just like all of the Conservatives want to do, and the effect it had on the agriculture industry.
First the farms couldn't hire anyone that would do that work for the money.
Next the state was going to try to make prison workers fill the jobs, and they got out into the fields and stood around, they weren't going to do physical labor, like POW's or a Gulag.
All of the crops rotted in the fields.
Alabama rescinded their decision on illegals, who came back and picked the crops and lived fairly crime free uneventful lives.
