Again, even if they work in agriculture jobs if they would be payed fairly, Americans wouldn't buy that food because it would radically jack up the prices (as explained before, by at least 500% to make up for the much higher salary of the workers). By that point, food is either becoming a luxury or you'd have to import from abroad to avoid food prices from exploding.

Not true at all, food will see small increases overall. Get rid of welfare, food stamps, section 8 housing, etc will make food prices and housing go down significantly. Those social programs jacked up the price of all products artificially. Not to mention we will have a bigger work force which will also drive down prices of products.

Now explain to me how things that have zero effect on food prices like welfare and housing would have any effect on food prices. As for the food for food stamps, less than point one percent of all the food in the US are used in this program, so removing those would have no real measurable effect on the prices.
