Ala. loses workers as immigration law takes effect

I just had a conspiracies' theory thought - Wonder if the push for
legislation against illegal immigration is a ploy in any way for
corporations to be able to force out domestically owned small
businesses/farmers. It is not that local farmers do not want to pay
workers, there are not enough people willing to work for low wages in
such labor intensive jobs. With the new legislation it is even more
difficult for them to find workers to pick their crops. If no one is
there to harvest all the fruits and vegetables, the farms cannot sell
their goods or pay their bills. When the local farms go out of business,
Big Business Farms can fill the void with produce from their overseas
farms. Consequently, the rich get richer and the poor stay poor.
