This needs to be a multifaceted approach. We will have a big loss of comstruction related jobs and ag jobs. We need to also start cutting welfare to force people who have dropped out back into workforce. We also need to ramp up skilled labor training through votechs and apprenticeships.

Just relax, you'll still be able to find a slave to mow your yard.

You are right, B. Trump has long employed and celebrated hard working Hispanics. He is currently deporting those who are violent threats and he will be tailoring his policy to accommodate honest and hard working immigrants. There are a ton of citizens that are more of a problem than immigrants, and they are going to have to be dealt with as well.

Both skilled and unskilled labor pay will have to go up to draw workers back in. Problem is people are broke and can barely afford the slave labor we have now.

Are the criminals being arrested now really the labor force you’re worried about?

Arrest and deport every single one of them, then create a pathway to citizenship they can come back illegally

Since you're so concerned, are you

-A: Going to do any of this

or are you

-B: Just going to tell other people and hope that they do something about it?

Don’t worry buttercup, the current pace won’t put a dent in labor market. Needs to be 5,000 a day over 4 years to just remove 50% of thr official illegals under Biden during his presidency. Needs to 9000-10,000 a day to get close to removing them all.

Don’t forget., work Visa programs are in place and functioning fine. Biden provided a means to easily circumvent that. Programs will fill any voids.

My guess is you just want to whine about deporting. Go get a Facebook hug.

We won't need as much construction because there will be millions less people.

1, I’m not in a position to cut welfare. 2, my profession doesn’t hire illegals. 3, my profession is not conducive to simple apprenticeships. Therefore I have little ability to affect change other than stating an opinion on a message board.

Yes cut the welfare but be careful there. Use laws on books but let it known in advance that heavy hand to employers is coming.

It needs to be done in this order: criminals, Haitians, Muslims, Chinese and Venezuelans. That should keep us busy for a while.

The hard working Hondurans are way, way down the list.

In other words, you don't really know what you're talking about with this.

Got it.

Why don’t you say we need to find the root causes?

I don't believe the Venezuelans that were rounded up in Colorado with a butt load of cash and drugs was doing any form of agricultural work or roofing.
