It really does suck for those that are just trying to work, while have a whole group of able-bodied US citizens sucking off the government tit.
I've got a shite ton of students that are 100% on this track. All F's - every class - every report card. Most aren't criminals or thugs, they just give zero fricks because they know that in the end, our government will just give them the shite they need. It's a complete fkn joke.

Exactly. That was my example from my own small business. I'm fairly certain that the people who used to do cleaning were mainly illegals but the company has paperwork that says they're not.
Not being totally positive you are involved in a crime isn’t the greatest defense, right?
I know that sounds snarky but if a reasonable person would reasonably infer something was amiss - you should probably re-route your plans.

These folks who are actively working and contributing to our society in a net positive way should be given a fast track for approved work visas.
The “good ones” actively try to get work visas/legal status. Everyone else broke the law and should go to back of the line

Do we know what job site this is?
From Fox News Article it was in Pass Christian:
Federal immigration agents arrested 16 illegal immigrants caught trying to flee a Mississippi business during a workplace raid, authorities said.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), the U.S. Border Patrol and other agencies were at Gulf Coast Prestress Partners, in Pass Christian on the Gulf Coast to conduct a worksite raid, ICE said.

Why don't the "good ones" try to get citizenship or a work visa?
Because it is brutally hard.

Just a month in and they’ve already pivoted from going after violent criminal aliens to worksites…why? Because Fed LEO offices have to justify their phoney baloney jobs by generating stats - apprehension of a drywaller counts on paper the same as a gangbanger and easier to apprehend.
The system didn’t magically get better in a month’s time…same bureaucrats are in place today as were a month ago. Hopefully they will refocus efforts on violent criminal apprehension, gang suppression and large scale trafficking organizations.

We are going to have a gigantic crisis when it comes to building labor. Let me know how many all white/black roofing companies you've seen in the past 5+ years.
Wish there was a way to kick out unproductive citizens who just bleed our country dry and swap them for building labor Mexicans who show up every day and work their arse off.
