Lexington has a population of 11,200, and the plant there employs 3200. That town is going to lose over a quarter of its population in jobs. Gonna be another dead small town before long.

They're blaming it on the beef shortage that they caused. Buying fats for .96 a lb and selling them for record profits during covid, then abandon the market when it turns.

They can probably just deport all the workers, so no benefits need paid.

Probably true. Wife took a job at a Tyson chicken plant in KY when we were dating. She lasted a day. Besides being a nasty job the Mexican hitting on her all day made her quite uncomfortable.
The entire staff was Mexicans. A Ice raid would shut the place down.

Nebraska is only 4.6% black and much of that is Africans who moved there to process beef. Nebraska is only 12% Hispanic. The skewed demographics for the small town tells you foreigners moved there to work.

Food processing plants typically employ a lot of migrant workers. Once they're all run off who will do that work?


My fear of moving stairs is escalating!

In Lexington, Nebraska, there soon won't be a plant to be run off from. The plant is closing. The aliens will just be more of a burden than they already are if they remain. Even working, low level aliens, cost the US taxpayer much more than they pay in in taxes.

We are better off without them.
