So we're back to the "root causes of illegal immigration" malarkey

[Lisa558]

Yes it was.

Not on the channel I was watching, as of 8:am this morning. I must have had on a prog channel by mistake.

 

[Foolardi]

Yes it was.

Because it's fact.You CAN both Chew gum and walk.
Some days barely talk as well.
Never Think.

 

[Posit]

The "root cause of illegal immigration" is the 'grass is always greener on the other side of the fence' syndrome.

And, since there is no fence and plenty of free grass, its true in the current situation.

Well then that settles it.

I've covered this and covered this and covered this. No one can survive on the benefits a minor gets and you note that they are working to survive. OK, that's what I said so where is your disagreement? Remove the ability to get a job and they have to leave.

They do not have to leave if you remove their ability to get a job. They may well have been jobless in the country they came from and the U.S. is a far better place to be jobless. Illegals frequently share apartments, three or four to a family. Their men get jobs off the books and the women make and sell tamales or also get jobs off the book. The other women and older girls in the apartment provide day care while they work.

Until they place them in public schools for free day care. Public schools do not check for citizenship or legal status and accept foreign documents as ID from parents. The U.S. will. always be a magnet for the wretched refuse of poorer nations. The only way to stop the flood is at the border itself, with physical barriers and real enforcement.

Make up your mind. They either have jobs or they do not.

 

[Mac-7]

I know. It's never your fault. America is responsible for nothing bad. You're just a victim. I get it.

You solution is to vote for joe biden who does nothing except make the trespassers as comfortable as possible in their new land - and by the millions

Just think if the Republicans had addressed the illegal job market when they had the chance.

Absolutely

Mac1958 wont deport them

if they refuse to work or cant work because of mac’s policies he will have to feed them and their children

 

[Mac-7]

Many of the repub swamp rats in congress work for the Chamber of Commerce which is pro illegal alien

so feel free to throw stones at them

the problem was that trump could not do it all by himself

The sit-on-their-hands-and-bitch Tweeners could have tipped the balance away from the illegal aliens

But Tweeners chose business as usual instead

 

[Unkotare]

They have the same crappy work in their home countries. That’s not why they’re coming, They are here to get Americans to feed their kids, and their produce anchor babies that we have to support to age 18, while they get the benefits of subsidized housing themselves.

There is no such thing as an “anchor baby.”

 

[Lisa558]

Just think if the Republicans had addressed the illegal job market when they had the chance.

Just think if Biden hadn’t reversed Trump’s effective stay in Mexico policy. We now have 10x the number of lowlifes crossing over with bogus asylum claims.

Yup, but we can’t depend solely on Republicans and one or two decent Democrats to protect this country from the 99% of Dems trying to get as many criminals and lowlifes in here.

What is the politically correct term for a baby born after its mother crossed to border illegally so that her child would be an American citizen and she could stay and collect welfare?

 

[Lisa558]

Of course there is. The term is in the Oxford English Dictionary. Progs don’t like it because it implies that the mother came here illegally so she could “drop anchor” by having a baby, and not only avoid deportation, but also soak up taxpayer benefits. And that is correct.

 

[Unkotare]

Of course there is. ....

NO, there is not. Having a child in the US means that child is a US citizen, but it does NOT change the immigration status of the mother. Many families are separated due to this reality. Many mothers deported while their US citizen children remain.

The mother's immigration status does NOT change when she has a child in the US. That child is a US citizen, but she is still just as subject to deportation.

To do what? Without an amendment process, they can't violate the Constitution. In our country you are innocent until proven guilty no matter how much you hate it.
