You're so right on that note. You know, and I think, you know, Miguel is right on that point. But it's also, and I saw this play out during the pandemic. I think in this country we have a very hypocritical immigration system where with one hand we'll wave people in to come in and work for us. And, you know, let's call it what it is. They use cheap labor, but with the other hand we tell them, you can't be part of this country. You can't be part of our society. And there's an economic interest that is at work here where they want to have these workers that if they're not quote unquote legal, then they're in the shadows, and that leaves for opportunity to exploit them.
