Help me understand MAGA who will pick the fruit and vegetables?
Help me understand MAGA who will pick the fruit and vegetables?

how long can those crops last without being picked

From ChatGPT ;

⏳ It really depends on the crop, but many of California’s fruits and vegetables have a very short window once ripe—some can spoil in just a day or two if not harvested promptly.

🍓 Strawberries

Extremely delicate and highly perishable

Can rot within 24–48 hours if left unpicked in warm conditions

🍇 Grapes

Wine grapes can hang a bit longer, but table grapes risk shriveling or attracting pests

Typically harvested within a few days of peak ripeness

🥬 Lettuce

Sensitive to heat and sun exposure

Can wilt or become bitter if not picked within a few days of maturity

🍊 Oranges

More forgiving—can stay on the tree for several weeks after ripening

But quality and sweetness may decline over time

🌰 Almonds & Walnuts

These have a longer post-ripening window

Can remain on trees for weeks, but must be harvested before mold or pests set in

🚨 Labor shortages and immigration enforcement have recently caused crops to go unpicked, leading to massive losses—some farmers report up to 70% of their harvest rotting in the fields2.

so who is going to pick this fruit for maga

From ChatGPT ;

That’s the million-dollar question—and it’s got California’s agricultural industry in a real bind.

🚜 Here’s the situation:

California’s farms rely heavily on undocumented migrant labor—up to 75% of farm workers may lack legal status.

Many of these workers are responsible for harvesting the fruits and vegetables that end up on tables across the U.S.

Despite supporting Trump for promises like increased water access, some MAGA-aligned farmers now face a dilemma: mass deportations could leave their fields unpicked.

🍓 The irony?

Farmers who backed Trump’s immigration policies are now worried they won’t have enough workers to harvest crops.

One Ventura County farmer said, “If 70% of your workforce doesn’t show up, 70% of your crop doesn’t get picked and can go bad in one day”.

📉 What’s at stake:

Without exemptions or reforms, the food supply could be disrupted.

Prices may rise, and some farms could go bust due to labor shortages.

So, who’s going to pick the fruit? That’s what California lawmakers are asking too—they’ve even urged the administration to pause farm raids to avoid economic fallout

will this create food poverty in america?

From ChatGPT ;

It’s already happening—and the ripple effects could get worse.

🍽️ Here’s the current reality:

As of 2023, 47.4 million Americans lived in food-insecure households, including 13.8 million children.

Labor shortages and immigration crackdowns have left millions of tons of produce unharvested, with up to 76% of it still edible.

California, which produces a huge share of the nation’s fruits and vegetables, is seeing crops rot in fields due to lack of workers2.

📉 Why this matters:

Less produce harvested means less supply, which drives higher prices—especially for fresh, healthy food.

Low-income families are hit hardest, often forced to choose between rent, medicine, and groceries.

Food banks are overwhelmed—California alone distributed 900 million pounds of food in 2023.

⚠️ The kicker?

Even though food is abundant in some regions, distribution gaps and economic inequality mean millions still go hungry.

Without policy changes—like fixing the broken guest worker system or expanding food aid—food poverty could deepen, especially in rural and immigrant-heavy communities.

The countless prisoners who should be used for a more nobler purpose than what they otherwise threw their lives away for.

Problem with that logic is that it further commercializes the prison system and starts creating more of a need for new prisoners. This trickles up hill straight into our legal system. You'll see laws getting more vague and/or ridiculous just to increase the amount of prisoners.

There's a lot of great things humans could do if it weren't for how easy it is for a society to fall victim of serious corruption

I mean, you dont need ChatGPT to tell you how long fruit stays ripe.

I hope.

Nah how about we make g*mers harvest the crops. Better start forcing them outta their parent’s basements.

And the degeneracy and cultural poisoning to draw in new bands of thugs and "gangstas" would also be expanded upon as well, and the ways and means to get people to NOT act like complete idiots are also stripped of funding too.

So what's the point? The system is one revolving mess of degeneracy and punishment increasing in one fell swoop.

is the following response valid to alleviate this problem ; The countless prisoners who should be used for a more nobler purpose than what they otherwise threw their lives away for.

From ChatGPT ;

It’s a provocative idea—and one with deep historical roots and serious ethical baggage.



🧠 Let’s unpack it:

Prison labor in agriculture isn’t new. Over 30,000 incarcerated people in the U.S. currently work in farming or food-related roles, often for less than $1 per day2.

California has used prison labor in agriculture before, including during WWII when POWs picked fruit in Ventura County.

Some states, facing labor shortages due to immigration crackdowns, have reintroduced convict leasing to private farms—a practice with origins in post-slavery exploitation.

⚖️ But here’s the tension:

Framing prisoners as having “thrown their lives away” can ignore the complexity of incarceration—many are serving time for nonviolent offenses or were victims of systemic inequality.

Using prison labor to solve food insecurity risks repeating exploitative systems, especially if workers aren’t paid fairly or given a choice.

Critics argue it’s a form of modern slavery, especially when labor is coerced or unpaid5.

✅ What could make it valid?

Voluntary participation, fair wages, and rehabilitative goals—not punishment.

Programs that teach skills, offer certifications, and help reintegration after release.

Transparency and oversight to prevent abuse.

So yes, prisoners could contribute meaningfully to agriculture—but only if it’s done ethically, with dignity, and not as a shortcut to cheap labor.

The answer is the same as always:

Lock people up for smoking drugs unapproved by the glorious Trumpistan Soviet Republican and use them as slave labor.
