those bulked up the numbers for Trump, I mean, for Biden, frankly. So, we're going to see significant numbers of people, but it's not just numbers, it's who's getting deported. Because they're starting, they're pursuing a worst first policy, you know, the gangbangers and what have you. But most illegal immigrants aren't gangbangers, they're just regular working students. Right.

Those people have to go, too. And that's going to happen once they start doing worksite enforcement, rains on factories and what have you. And that's coming. Oman said it's coming.

The first thing to keep in mind is anything like that would be a process, not an event. In other words, it's not as though you're going to wake up one morning and all the illegal aliens are gone. It's going to be a process of sort of continual enforcement whittling down the illegal population and causing significant numbers of people to go home on their own so they avoid arrest.

That's what happened during the big deportation push under Eisenhower. Most of the people who left, most of the illegals who left, left on their own. They weren't taken into custody by the Border Patrol. To get to the agricultural thing, only a tiny share of the illegal population works in ag. I mean, like, less than 5% of the illegal workforce works in agriculture.

They're almost all in city jobs, you know, construction, services, you name it. And there is an unlimited guest worker program for ag. the H-2A program, which I'm not even a big fan of, but it exists. And the problem is farmers don't want to use it. They say there's too much red tape, what have you, too many requirements, you have to provide housing and what have you. Well, too bad.

You know, use the program that's available. And the goal needs to be to wean those sectors off of the use of illegal labor, and even in agriculture, that's possible. Because let's face it, there's no illegal aliens harvesting wheat in North Dakota or corn in Iowa. They're working in fresh fruit and vegetable agriculture.

And even there, they're working in the portion that is for fresh sale in the supermarket as opposed to processing, like tomatoes. Tomatoes that you get tomato sauce, nobody touches those, all harvested by machine. It's fresh stuff. So, even there, technology advances and makes it possible for more and more labor to be replaced.

And if we have to import blueberries, because there's just no way to grow, not blueberries, but blackberries, no way to grow them without massive, cheap third-world labor, well, then let's just import the blueberries instead of import the blueberry pickers. But The point is we need agriculture to evolve the way the rest of the economy has away from the medieval way that it's now done.
