Thread: Asian Citrus Psyllid Imported from Mexico

Another consequence of open borders as the above pestilence has been brought in from Mexico which orchard owners say could be catastrophic to oranges and other citrus fruits. This is a microscopic insect and already has been found in San Diego, brought in from Tijuana. What really is disconcerting is Border Patrol arresting countless numbers of illegal aliens bringing oranges and other produce into this country and trucks crossing the border from Mexico not being inspected contrary to what Homeland Security tells the American people . Growers have rated this threat on a scale from 1 to 10 as an 11 with a potential loss of billions to growers. More insanity..................

And the list grows,one more reason to seal the borders totally with troops if necsassary.

Well, big agriculture has always been one of the biggest supporters of illegal immigration.
They have to live with it.

How many states will turn into Detroit when their economies vanish? Meals on Wheels will need a lot of caravans of food for San Diego alone ,like in inner city Detroit.

Well, the growers caused this themselves by fighting to keep the border open. I hope they sink.

If they suffer, they'll be standing in line for the taxpayer bailout. Cost us twice as much again.

They might have just flown over too, depending on how many citrus trees are along the mexican side of the border. If we lose the citrus industry in California, it could be catstrophic. Since the Governator made funding to IA's down to a month to month basis, instead of an annual package, hopefully he can shift some more money away from IA's and ESL schooling over to the Department of Agriculture to eliminate the threat. From what the newspaper said, the citrus psyllid is very devastating.
