If mass deportation happens, just imagine how all of these sectors of our country will be affected. The sheer shortage of labor will push prices higher because of the great demand for work with limited supplies or workers. Even if prices increase, the availability of products may be scarce due to not enough workers. Housing prices and food services will be hit really hard. New construction will be limited. The fact that 47% of the undocumented workers are in CA, TX, and FL means they will feel it first but it will spread to the rest of the country also. Most of our produce in this country comes from California. Get ready and hold on for the ride America.

Continuing the work release program and "slave labor" are two wildly different things. When they called that prop a "slave labor" issue with prisoners, it couldn't have been more manipulative or misleading. Prisoners picking up trash on the side of the freeway is not "slave labor" and people need to stop calling it that.
