WPTV is told that some farm workers are already too scared to go to work and are considering leaving the state as new immigration law is set to take effect this summer.
Fraga said the industries that will be most impacted will be the farming industry, construction and hospitality.
We already use prison labor for agriculture here, but it’s definitely gonna expand. When I take one of the highways out of town I drive past a prison-slave-plantation
for sure. i just mean to say that labor can always be more degraded and we can never assume the fascists don't have a strategy. there is no floor for the social reproduction of labor. they will work prisoners to death and incarcerate more people, increase sentencing guidelines, etc.
prison agricultural labor will be the stick they threaten hospitality workers with: if you don't let the white family from ohio abuse you while you deliver their treats for sub minimum wage, you will be sent to the fields and worked for 10 cents an hour in store scrip until your body fails.
I hate that this is plausible, and I hate that I don't see a way to stop it from coming to that, and I HATE that America will just sit there and take it.

Oh 100% I wasn’t trying to detract just add to your point
