'We'll All Have to Go Vegan': Wisconsin Dairy Farmers Fret over Immigration Crackdown

Business groups warn agriculture sector will collapse without foreign labour

40% of the farm workforce are undocumented immigrants. Farmers voted in obscenely high numbers for Trump, who said he was rounding up these workers and shipping them out. So why would farmers vote to hurt themselves? And why haven't they been charged for harboring fugitives? (You know why.)

Farmers shot themselves in the ass.

As for the rest of MAGA----Perhaps milk and cheese are also fond memories along with eggs.

Learn about edible pants growing in back lots.

Pick them before your neighbors can.

School your children to do farm work. That will solve the problem.

How is "vegan" a solution to this?

All the fired federal workers can fill the void.

He's implying its not a choice. You won't have any bovine products. ergo the only thing left is vegan, or maybe pescatarian.

You are a typical MAGA POS. Truly.

Although I meant #11 for #9, It's applicable to both...

MAGA is giddy at the imminent prospect of widespread economic disaster.

Despite all the bitching and moaning over the price of groceries, they appear to have decided that they can do without.

1) They will when you will.

2) Enjoy your milk-less Cheerios and don't forget to blame the well-educated.

3) I really do think that you people are going to find out how really spoiled you've been for all of your lives.

Food is such crap that peeps will prefer starvation.

I don't feel sorry for them at all. I live in WI and almost all farmers were pushing for trump. Well, you got 'em, enjoy.

Even if you're Vegan, undocumented workers are the ones that pick our crops, supply the food. They don't just work in meat packing plants. If Trump has his way and could and does deport all undocumented workers, our entire food supply would be gone in 2 days.

#20 | Posted by YAV at 2025-02-12 02:08 PM

OH, and Trump is demoting ICE officials and worse because the deportations are 'taking too long'.

Enjoy it, peeps!

That fat stupid ---- has no idea how anything works.
He's a poster child for dementia.
