Home buyers won’t pay for them. Look at all the whining now about home prices.
Sure they will. Besides, neither of us know what happens to home prices when 20 million residents go *poof but I'm willing to bet that's not a bad scenario for home buyers.

Yes, over the past 15 years, I’ve watched skilled flooring installers, citizens, lose their livelihoods because one “legal” immigrant make an llc and hires illegals to do new home flooring. LVP installation? $1.50/sf down to $.60/sf. Floor tile installation? $2.50/sf down to $1/sf. Citizens have bills, health insurance, vehicle insurance, etc. the illegals get free health care, subsidized or free housing. Coat to buyers didn’t go down, just higher margins for the big builders. SEND. THEM. ALL. HOME.

Can’t both complain that we need cheap labor and also complain about how crappy new builds are. Turns out cheap illegal labor build crappy products.

Do you understand that the construction industry in this country would collapse without illegal / migrant labor
Why?
There is a solution, but if you lean left, you won't like it.

I am talking about states where the population is increasing.
Speaking of which, has ICE raided any new home construction sites? I wish they would. Heavily.
In Georgia, they are. It's what pissed off MTG and made her turn against Trump. Her construction company didn't like it very much.

Would be better off hauling off the employers to jail for violating the law if they were serious about hiring American.

Cut off the mail box money and they will be plentiful.

Absolutely. I want all 20 million gone. I don't care how long they have been here. In fact those that have been here 20 years without being legal. I have them just slightly under the violent criminals.

Yes. What kind of retarded question is this?

I mean, are entire construction projects hinging on illegal immigrant labor? If so, then yes, I support addressing that problem and have no problem with any delays or other problems that may cause the interested parties involved in such a project.

Yes, every one of them

I’ve got an hvac company and a design and remodeling company in Baldwin county. It’s top ten growing county in the US.
We use all legal people, and ain’t no brakes on these trains.

So here is an interesting factual story from yesterday
Car accident in the summer of 2024 before the November election elections in Florida. Car is being driven by a non-citizen with a Guatemalan expired license plate and no other status and it is rear ended. He is with his girlfriend from Honduras who also has no status in the United States. The officer gives him a ticket for no license but does not arrest him. Does nothing with the female.
Both are now represented for personal injuries from the world's largest law firm. He works construction doing roofing and even had a workers compensation claim that was paid.
Someone explained how he can be doing roofing without any legal status in the United States.

Do you honestly think that the Republican government of SC, one of the fastest growing states in the country, wants the new construction industry in that state hobbled because all of the illegal labor was arrested and deported? And miss out on all that sweet tax money?
If so, I don’t think that you are facing reality.
