NYTimes admits. Immigration at the border is a huge problem and needs to be fixed ASAP.

Just because they have a headquarters in the US doesn't mean that it's not still foreign owned. In fact they still have a HQ in the US located in Florida and another in the place in which the people who actually own and operate the company live in, Switzerland. You need to do a better job with your Googling breh

You don't even remember the point you're attempting to argue against.

A foreign owned company, headquartered in the United States, that puts bananas in nearly every grocery store in the US that also used slave labor to provide cheap goods to US customers is exacy what @Shogun was referring to.

I've forgotten what my argument is?

First of all I asked for examples of an AMERICAN company pillaging the resources of a foreign country. And Chiquita is NOT American owned. It is owned by Swiss people. So my original point is proven.

Secondly, even though it is a Swiss company, please provide examples of Chiquita using "slave labor" to provide cheap goods to Americans.

Chiquita is an international company. They do business in America. They have a headquarters in America. They pay American taxes. They hire American workers.

Almost every big corporation operates at an international level now and subsequently pays taxes to each country they operate in. Have you ever heard of a little term called Globalism?

So because Apple sells iPhones in China, contracts out manufacturing work to China, pays Chinese taxes and has offices in China that now makes Apple a Chinese company?

You expect me to watch a 2 hour documentary instead of providing substantiated evidence to back up your claim that Chiquita is using slave labor, (which is ILLEGAL under international law)?

I'm glad you brought up Apple.

My point, though, is that the standard of living for most Americans is predicated on the exploitation of resources and labor from many of the countries where these migrants are coming from.

Youve been arguing with me on here long enough to have watched the documentary. You clearly have the time. :Bucketsumad:

Just like you clearly have the time to provide at least one piece of evidence to substantiate your claim that Chiquita enslaves people to provide cheap bananas for Americans

Because dems don't support open borders

cant you just admit that the dems arent right on this issue for fukks sake

if these illegals and migrants are such a boon to the country, they should be glad that trump is sending them to sanctuary cities. this is very, very basic logic

This doesn’t even make sense.

I think you have a misunderstanding of what a “sanctuary city” is, just like your dumb ass president.

Sanctuary cities just don't divert their law enforcement resources to do the federal governments job for them.

ICE can still come in and arrest and deport as they please.
