    everything you’re wearing right now

    Much of that is cotton. I believe that in the “good” ol’ days the US grew that themselves. Start that industry up again, and you don’t need mass deportations across the border.

      You could even run the farms the same way as in the olden days, if you criminalize and incarcarate enough black people.

        Well boy howdy, it turns out we already been done doin that there part about criminalizing and incarcerating them black people just out of sheer racism. You’re telling me that there could’ve been a profit motive to it this whole time too?

        jk, private contracted prisons were already profiting deeply off of that.
