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.
While the rank-and-file conservatives just assume the market will figure that out or unemployed Americans will take this, the higher ups always engineer the enforcement mechanisms and fines, at least in the past, to make it easier to manage farm labor. As long as there are places in South/Central America where things are really bleak, some sufficient number will still come to the US. You just have the added advantage for disciplining labor of having them deported if they try to stand up for themselves.
But now things are being pushed too far by the base for the original intent of these policies.

Thank you I tried to write this explanation but couldn’t word it well and gave up.
We used to have the cynics that didn’t believe the bile they were spewing, now we have the true believers raised on that bile.
