Cheaper labor = cheaper goods. It's simple economics. Immigrants happily take jobs at or below minimum wage that Americans wouldn't do.
Once they become citizens, would you think they would still take below minimum wage jobs?
If yes, how?
If no, what would happen to the Americans working at the minimum wage jobs? What would happen for those illegals-now-citizens when they can't find jobs?
You are like a broken record aren't you? Rather than debate points you simply say the same thing again and again and again. Where has anyone in this thread actually said it was be a great policy?
Yet you are still supporting it by voting for the Democrats?
You should have taken your own advice before beginning this ridiculous thread, where you simply repeat "importing 50 million poor illegals" again and again and again and again without ever backing this claim up, despite being asked to numerous times.
It's obvious you haven't the foggiest concept of what a meaningful conversation is. This thread is a waste of space.
Why does anybody vote for the Democrat? Personally, based on this one issue alone, I would NEVER EVER vote for the Democrat: illegal immigration.
At least, the Republicans want the illegals so that certain businesses can have cheap labor and be more competitive - they don't care about the poor. Why other people, particularly the blacks since 90% of them vote for Democrat, want illegals?
Let's put the laws, the constitution, and the country aside for a moment and pretend they don't matter. By importing 50-70 million illegal immigrants, mostly poor, it could take a huge chunk out of the already small pie of welfare at a time we won't even be able to pay back the current debt!
Not to mention, those illegals will compete with the poor for all the low end jobs. Wait until they become legal, they will ask for $15/hour. Why adding 50 million to the already saturated labor pool?
How is that in anyway helping the poor? Why would anybody vote for the Democrat? This is like to screw every poor person in the behind with a spacecraft.
People vote for persons they best identify with, for the policies that they prioritize most highly.
Since there are a range of issues well beyond illegal immigration, many of which others prioritize more highly than immigration, your question seems disingenuous at best.

That is exactly right, agree 100 percent.
