It is a lie, but not a ‘democrat lie.’ The big four meat packing companies make their profits off of cheap labor provided largely by desperate immigrants working in dirty, unsafe conditions thanks to lax workers compensation laws allowing low compensation for work-related injuries, and little or no protection against huge amounts of air and water pollution.

That is why they all moved their plants to red states.

If desperate immigrants really were removed en masse from these jobs, and local citizens really did take those jobs, we would likely see an improvement in treatment and pay for our workers in the industry.

But we also would have to pay more for our meat. Which I think is a good thing because I am a liberal and have empathy for others.

You are a conservative and like most conservatives these days, you are sorely lacking in human empathy.
