"so you're a farmer?"

"uh huh"

"do you do all the work on your farm?"

"no, I hire undocumented workers to do that"

"so you're just a property owner who relies on heavily exploitable labor?"

sure, but the end result could be a reduction in onion production. and the actual farm workers not getting paid.

its the issue with capitalism, the landlords might say 'without us who will finance the housing?' the obvious answer is the Government, but if the Government isn't willing to finance housing (though it is always able to), there won't be new homes (or a great reduction at the least).
