I find it hilarious that the pro-illegals keep using the crop picking argument when they have been told over and over that there are unlimited H-2A visas available to the farmers.
I'd like to hear them explain what the other 97% are doing on jobs that most Americans WOULD do. There were many raids on businesses across the country other than agricultural jobs and Americans lined up around the block for those jobs and I haven't heard of any mass exodus of Americans leaving those jobs after getting hired.
I don't care what the other 97% are doing. You claim that Americans will do ALL the jobs illegals are doing and you are flat out wrong as the situation in GA proves. We've discussed the issues with H-2A visas numerous times though you have everyone on ignore so you just keep stammering with the same gibberish.
It's also interesting that it's implied that citizens that have been incarcerated and are serving out their probation for a crime they committed are somehow worse than people that are blatantly breaking laws and act as if they are the ones being wronged. I've always been taught that owning up to your mistakes, paying the price, and moving along in a positive direction is the way to atone for your past. From my POV, illegals haven't even gotten to the first step yet.
It's pretty damn hypocritical to say we should force actual criminals to go work for these farmers who should be able to hire who they want AND AT THE SAME TIME rip on them for hiring illegals who are "criminals" simply because they are trying to get to a job to work. These farmers would rather have migrant workers around their families than actual criminals. Does that mean anything to you?
How so? If the border is open, then people are actually incentivized to go through the official channels where they can be screened. The black market for human traffic collapses. This isn't rocket science. When prohibition ended, gangsters weren't able to compete in the booze market. When Nevada started allowing corporations to get gaming licenses, the mob was not able to compete in the casino market.
Violent criminals are not able to compete against legitimate businesses. This is why gangs don't try to push cola, or ice cream, or cheeseburgers.
So you believe we should open the borders to everyone.
And how do you propose we will create enough jobs for people from all over the world that want to come here? If you have a great solution to the jobs problem we have right now I'm sure that there are numerous people that would be interested. How would that differentiate us from a third world country then when we have too many people, not enough jobs, and the country is broke from an overtaxed welfare system?
People from Mexico come here to get better pay, not because they can't find a job. If we open our doors our pay scale will drop to the level of Mexico's but our COA will be much higher. It's a race to the bottom from then on. Is that really what you want?
And as far as the screening process...yes Im sure the ones with shady pasts are going to jump right on board and go through that screening process just to be denied.
Have you ever heard anyone say that if you take all the guns away, the only ones left with guns are the criminals? That's because THEY are willing to work outside the boundaries of the law to operate. Same principle.
Do you think we should only do things we are obligated to?
I think it should be the CHOICE of those that pay taxes and keep our country functioning. The majority don't want to become a third world country. Mexico is the 12 highest economy in the world. Why don't you believe that THEY should compete to become better rather than us handing it to them by taking their poor?
Have you been following the news at all to see how much it costs to create one job in this country? Jobs are subsidized, so yes, the CITIZENS DO own them.

Wow, so if I go hire someone, I get a check from the government to subsidize that hire?

How so? You've been doing it all along. What has changed?
Or maybe you can't reply because there is no logical way to support your opinion?

Yes, I do it properly. You don't. The way you do it most of what you type gets dropped when people try to reply to your posts because you put it inside the QUOTE tags. Not only does the software drop that text, it makes it very difficult to read.
