You mean American workers might have to be paid decent wages? Oh the horror.


What do you think that will do to prices?

This needs to happen (even though it won’t), but it won’t be all sunshine and puppies.

Considering I already hire legal workers and pay them what they are worth this is a good thing. Now my competition who hires illegals will have to go up on their prices. Win/Win

Crawfish prices skyrocket.

Where in the hell have you been the last 3+ years?!?

We tried it your way, and it's a complete shite show.

We don't need more workers. We need more Americans to work.

There is almost no amount of strife I wouldn’t endure to send them back where they belong.

They have to go back.

Do you think wage increases for legal tax paying American citizens is a bad thing?

This such bullshite.

So the assumption is all of these new immigrants are all employed? The assumption is every immigrant working now in farms or construction is illegal? If we deport every illegal that has come in since 2020 it won’t move the needle one bit - except reduce the costs of all of the services they’re receiving.

Google the number of people on disability from its inception in the 60's to present day and you'll see a steady increase way beyond the increase expected for normal population increase. I know two people on disability who could work any number of jobs that do not require heavy manual labor, instead they're drawing $2500/month disability, they're are millions of these people.

During a September 2021 interview with MSNBC's Nicole Wallace, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas bragged that the Biden administration had, "rescinded so many Trump immigration policies, it would take so much time to list them!"

It was almost like a plan to flood the country with over 7 million under Biden, lol. Twitter

JFC you are such a little TDS bitch.

Yeah, because Trump's ICE wasn't deporting a shite ton of people during his first term? They literally ran news stories about how certain businesses couldn't find workers anymore because the illegals left out of fear of being rounded up on farms etc... because it was happening. The workers at Mexican restaurants where I lived disappeared... But sure, Trump as all talk and didn't do anything deport illegal aliens. fricking nerd.
