Not true.

Those illegals can move to other parts of the country.

Any illegal, anywhere in this country, is a national problem, not just a local problem.

The only way to "fix the problem" is to send them home.

Yes, I agree with you 100% that, "Americans first"

But I tell you what, one of the biggest problems many jobless Americans face is NOT the lack of jobs, or illegal immigrants, but it's the drug test they can't pass.

If a jobless person (whether legal or illegal) wanted a job, they would find it. As they say, "Where there is a will, there is a way."
So you're saying that employers drug-test illegal aliens?

Is that what you're suggesting? Somehow I doubt that.

I have seen many Mexicans in the work force and I don't know whether they are legal or illegal, and I do know that they are big into drinking beer BUT none seem like a drug addict and/or a meth head. They all work extremely tough jobs that druggies won't be able to do in a million years.
And too many American citizens are "druggies", so we need the illegals?

I doubt that as well.

Americans aren't hired because illegals have been given their jobs.

Illegals have been given their jobs so that employers can lower their labor costs and put the money they save into their own pockets.

Now you're talking.

The mostly dysfunctional off springs of these illegals alien crimianals will remain a challenge to deal with as they are born U.S. citizens. What to do with them? Many will naturally go into drug dealing and other crimes to make a living because that's all what they have seen.
Yes.

There is no reason they can't be deported. The Fourteenth Amendment was never intended to protect -- and does not protect -- anchor babies.

It no more confers automatic U.S. citizenship on them than it confers automatic U.S. citizenship on the children of foreign diplomats when those children are born in this country.

Construction worker citizens that work alongside the illegals. I'd say pretty believable

Not if employers won't hire them.

Employers want the cheap labor. That way they get bigger profits.

I could tell you a few example from the industry I work in, but perhaps you would have hard time to believe.

You can perhaps do some more research and be open to the idea that there is a world exist beyond what you know and what you believe.

Nice clip of taking my quote out of context. It was in relation to taxation and pay wages

I agree that illegal immigrants should not be able to work.... I made no suggestion otherwise. My point is that the premise that NYC is in particular a problem because the claimed 25 to 35 wage as the OP claimed doesn't hold water. The illegal immigration problem in NY or NYC is no different than any other place in this country... The actual wages of the illegal is irrelevant and certainly not a reason to single out NYC

Simply put the only people who would be complaining are those that actually pay NYC CITY tax.... most of those people understand and accept it. If not, they simply move out of NYC and into NJ or NY state.

The topic of this thread is a locale NYC concern not a federal one. I personally wouldn't live in NYC because I don't see the cost/benefit of the lifestyle. However, millions of people actually do and if they can afford it, more power to them.

No world exists beyond what I know and what I believe.

Haven't you figured that out yet, silly?

And anyone here who says crossing our border illegally (breaking the LAW) isn't a crime, please save it for some cupcake, I don't want to hear it.


MAGA - Take America BACK.


The thing I don't like about a wall is, when the tables are turned and Democrats in total totalitarian mode, the wall will be used to keep us in.

Treating the symptoms and never addressing the cancer, will eventually kill you anyway.
Get rid of all incentives to come here illegally.
Seizure of all assets, personal and business, including stockholders, of those companies that are exploiting illegal alien parasites and undercutting Americans.
Clarify the 14th Amendment to be addressing Freemen and the children of and not anyone and everyone born here.
