food in the US??

January 30th, 2025 at 05:10 am

Like most I have seen on tv how all the "illegal" immigrants are being rounded up and now there are no "white" people going to pick all the fruits/vegetables....so just wondering what is going to happen to all the prices of your food it will either cost more for white people to pick or it wont get picked and drop to the ground and rot...so it looks like it is going to go up in price...I have also seen online a lot of building sites (mostly houses) that no longer have workers as theyare to afraid to come out and work, as well as native americans....now I know we don't see as much from over there as you guys do when it comes to news coverage so I am curious as to what others think or know about food prices there or do you think a lot more people will be stealing from stores like what has been happening because they can't afford food?? I am just curious...although I have seen people posting since last year about some of your "bendy" food that stuff is weird

    Mum, that's the news reports we are getting here in the states as well, immigrants are afraid to leave their homes so I imagine food prices will increase. Plus we have lost a lot of chickens due to the bird flu which is making eggs go up even higher.

    I hope food doesn't get picked and food prices soar. The worse things get, the bigger the outcry and he'll have to back down. He's an idiot.

    Rob so what we are seeing is the same that is happening it is sad that they are taking this route...considering elon musk was an illegal immigrant himself...so glad we dont have bird flu here.

    patient saver..I agree to a degree but the problem is they will take the food first and the rest will go hungry...with all that is happening to women there, I think they should all go on strike untill they change the laws, no working, no childcare, no sex, no cooking, no cleaning etc...she what happens then...they did it years ago in a country and it worked...men want to control everything let them take of everything...with the billions that elon has he could solve all the homelessness in the world and no-one would ever go hungry...but no the more him and trump get the more they want...thats pretty much the same for all billionaires...they could do so much good in the world but they just dont...and it affects everything...immigrants arent working so cant take care of their families, food is wasted because white people wont pick it, food prices go up so no-one can afford to eat which means people steal and rob more to get what they need...the rich get richer for putting other things in place to combat the issues that have risen because of them. I just hope it doesnt get to bad there...at least our inflation is going down here

    Generally speaking, with cheap labor gone, farmers will have no choice but to pay more to obtain the needed labor. Of course, that higher cost will be passed down to the consumer.

    However, if labor cost end up too high, and profits are untenable somehow, it is also possible the produce would just be left on the vine to wilt and die....

    There is no scenario here where food prices will not go up, rather than come down.

    I’m sadden by what is happening. Do I believe that immigrants should be flooding the country? No. Do I think that they’re the reason for crime? No. Am I saying that crime isn’t committed by immigrants? No. What I am saying is that they’re not the sole reason. Also do I think that there is a more humane way to handle those who come into this country? Yes. What is happening and how it’s happening is disgusting. We have become a nation of savages. When did we get to a point of mistreating kids?

    I’m wondering when he’s going to round up the European immigrants.

    Honestly I felt like the last few days felt like a month, it’s been pure chaos, people losing their jobs and prices on goods are going up.
    Yesterday I bought four items, eggs, croutons, cheese and a four pack of ice cream bars. I tell you the truth, those four items cost me $30. Could I have gone without the ice cream bars? Yes. However am I not entitled to something sweet from time to time?

    It’s insane.

    Tabs yes it will most definitely it will all be going up in price...one thing I have noticed here is that prices have increased by a bit...but what you get is also smaller so the jars/containers of food are getting smaller but costing more as well (here anyways)

    Amber exactly, each case should be case by case scenario, many are just wanting to provide for their families, provide a better life and schooling it is sad and I hope it improves..honestly one of our leaders here is starting to sound like Trump and I hope he doesnt get in or we will be in the same boat and we hate that...yes it is nothing to buy a couple of things here and it is $50...it is insane

    @Mumof2 I am sorry to hear about the shift. I pray every day that people make a decision to love and not hate

    Yes, food prices are going to rise at the same time that food benefits for the most needy are being cut. And for some strange reason, this scenario makes some billionaires giddy with delight.
