    Remember when farm owners influenced Trump to say there would be carve-outs for undocumented farm workers, but there was an intence MAGA backlash? I wonder if we will see something similar here when delivery companies have to pay more for delivery workers.

      The difference is that these companies and their delivery workers aren’t necessary for the economy at all.

      Farmers are actually necessary as a fundamental foundation. Regardless of the MAGA delusion machine, reality does actually matter sometimes.
