They are more
to do with locking down the country so no more terrorist
attacks can occur. The problem is when the country gets that locked down
the freedoms we cherish disappear. When we lose all our freedoms, what
do we have worth keeping?

Who, then, will pick your lettuce? I mean no
disrespect whatsoever to
Mexican folks who brave through torrid deserts to make their way to
California so they can spend 8+ hours a day stooped over in the hot
sun picking vegetables so that you can have a salad on your table. I am
quite serious. What white person, in this day and age, would ever take a
job picking lettuce for minimum wage?
Hmm, what about Polish workers? No, serious, over here, there are
no Mexicans, nor orther unhealthy ceap workers, and the lettuce
gets still picked. Well, large farms use robots. And hasn't it
be you, Sallam, who noticed that prices are quite low? So the
old argument that the ceap workers are to give you low produce
prices is a myth. All it does is making somebody inbetween rich.
It isn't that simple either way.
