    Honestly it would be hilarious if they actually did, these dumbasses would quickly learn how utterly dependent on “immigrants” they actually are. I say “immigrants” because everyone knows they consider anyone that isn’t white to be an immigrant, even though by that logic anyone who isn’t Native American would be an immigrant and that absolutely includes these wastes of oxygen.

      That’s the whole point of right-wing “anti-immigrant” hysteria - it has always been about the repression of the cheapest source of labour (even cheaper than carceral slavery). Hell, the dynamics of this is even perfectly articulated in the second book of the Old Testament.

      But the goons doing the dirty work doesn’t need to know that.

      Yep, same assholes that complain the “burger flippers” want more than minimum wage, but also want their stuff 30 secs after they place their order and to be treated like royalty.

      It’s going to blow their minds that the price of food is going to go up because nobody wants to work in horrific conditions for less money than these bigots would ever dream of.

      And for Native Americans, I wonder how many of these dumbasses make “reservation runs” for cheap cigs/gas that will vanish if they force them elsewhere.

        Probably not many, considering the Native Americans in Kentucky (and almost all of the US east of the Mississippi) were fully genocided and that state therefore doesn’t have any reservations.

        They’ll also tell you that minimum wage jobs are for teenagers anyway, but not think anything of buying one of those burgers for lunch on a school day. And guess how they’re supposed to pay for college!

          Hell, I’d wager most of them fuckers don’t even work and are collecting fraudulent SSI and Disability checks and ain’t worked a day in their life since they were a teenager.
