    • Serf labor is a necessity for BIG MONEY to retain power and profit.

      These laws are just window dressing.

      Fine EMPLOYERS if you want actual change.

      - - -an 'ALL CASH' economy will NOT SUSTAIN the current amount of illegal business practices, and Illegals will go home if they cant MAKE A BUCK (efficiently) and send it HOME.

    • Both beautiful states being ruined by asshats. Isn't Georgia one of the states that are hurting due shortage of farm labor which this type of policy is causing? Okay, I had to check...............

      The Atlanta Journal-Constitution:

      Georgia’s economy is projected to take a $391 million hit and shed about 3,260 jobs this year because of farm labor shortages, according to a report released Tuesday by the state’s agricultural industry. The report does not cite the reasons for the worker shortages in Georgia’s $68.8 billion agricultural industry, the state’s largest. But many farmers complained this year that Georgia’s new immigration law -- House Bill 87 -- has scared away the migrant Hispanic workers they depend on, putting their crops at risk.

      And this, from another source:

      Barely a month ago, you might recall, Gov. Nathan Deal welcomed the TV cameras into his office as he proudly signed HB 87 into law. Two weeks later, with farmers howling, a scrambling Deal ordered a hasty investigation into the impact of the law he had just signed, as if all this had come as quite a surprise to him.

      In response, Deal proposes that farmers try to hire the 2,000 unemployed criminal probationers estimated to live in southwest Georgia.

      As an editorial in the Valdosta Daily Times notes, “Maybe this should have been prepared for, with farmers’ input. Maybe the state should have discussed the ramifications with those directly affected. Maybe the immigration issue is not as easy as ’send them home,’ but is a far more complex one in that maybe Georgia needs them, relies on them, and cannot successfully support the state’s No. 1 economic engine without them.”

      Hang onto your melons folks.
