A Republican Farmer Asks ‘Well, Who’s Going to Milk the Cows?’ When those Immigrants form Trump's Shithole Nations are thrown out.

[Dante]

It's all political. It's divisive and it is meant to be. What is? The Immigration Issue. Many Administrations and Congresses had ample opportunity over the last 50 years to address the issue. When one side seeks "comprehensive" reform of immigration policies, the fights begin. It's as if it's a team sport where nobody wants the other side to win.


[ For two decades, Tim O’Harrow, 79, the family patriarch, has tried to persuade politicians he has voted for and donated to — most of them Republican — that they need to fix the nation’s broken immigration system.

But Washington has failed to make any meaningful changes, and Republican voters continue to be anti-immigration, particularly those in Wisconsin, a swing state where 95 percent of Republicans support mass deportation, according to a recent poll by Marquette University Law School.

That has left the O’Harrows in an uncomfortable place — stuck between what they see as an obvious truth, that immigrants are essential to America’s food supply, and a national political mood hurtling in the other direction.

And now, after generations of feeling at home in the Republican Party, the O’Harrows feel politically homeless.

“I don’t know that I’m a Republican anymore,” Tim said. “I don’t know what we are anymore.” ]

I know high school kids that worked on dairy farms while in school. They milked morning and evening and went to school in between. Of course they were raised much differently than kids today, they weren't allergic to honest work.

If you think the modern way. Who do you think will learn the old ways when needed for survival quicker. And frankly in Prog areas they will get primal rather quickly. I grew up in the city. Understand the limitations in not so good times.
