Bingo....Texas never complained in previous years, as the migrants
were cheap labor, and did their jobs without complaints.

Illegal immigrants will work for those low wages.

One business I'm familiar with has seasonal jobs, and they get help
from those living in S Africa. These employees are paid regular
wages, free air transport to here and back, put up in housing, have transportation for shopping...and the money exchange rate is good for
them. They work...typical white seasonal help here are like the Gen Zs....worthless sometimes.
