Why is it that EVERY TIME we mention that you have to go after employers, you right wingers scoff and change the subject to something else! You conservatives absolutely hate the idea of doing anything to the rich or powerful. You’re lackeys.
Notice how they act anytime the topic of punishing employers comes up.
Trump can pardon all the "right" employers.....so problem solved.
The can has been kicking for well more than 30 years. It has not mattered who sat the oval or held the majority.
Not a whole lot of interest in eliminating incentives for illegal immigration.
Not a whole lot of interest in mandating e-Verify of all employees and contractors with stiff consequences for those who don’t comply.
Not a whole lot of interest in making renting to or otherwise harboring undocumented immigrants a Federal crime with stiff consequences for those who don’t comply.
Create the laws and a lead time and incentives for people to self deport via complimentary transportation home and $ X to start a new life. Certainly more cost effective than attempting to round up 12 + million people, going through the legal process for deportation.
That consumers will find watermelon that used to sell for $0.29/ lb, now costs $7.99/lb and small businesses will fail at unprecedented amounts are the tips of the iceberg in terms of impacts.
Seems to me there has never been a shortage of US people of all political stripes who want the benefits of cheap labor and then blame government for the consequences.
You ruined a perfectly good post with “watermelon will cost $7.99 and bla bla”

You're right, as if supposedly keeping prices down is justification for breaking the law. I have to wonder what kind of moral compass these people have. For one thing the greedy employers who hire illegals are just pocketing the profits they aren't passing any saving on to the consumer. What they do pass on to the taxpayer are their enormous social costs. I guess some people like to see the rich get richer? No business large or small should exist by breaking the law. Sure is funny how all these businesses managed before millions of cheap illegals flooded our border. As for that watermelon price BS we have unlimited visas for legal, foreign farm workers so why the need to hire illegals except for pure greed?
Another thing that is disgusting are people whom like you are replying to don't seem to give a damn about their fellow American worker. Illegals have flooded the construction, landscaping and many other blue collared jobs that Americans once use to do for a fair wage. Both the employers and their illegal hires are equally guilty of breaking the law. There is no innocent party here like these pro-illegals would like to imply. Illegals also cost us over $100 billion a year but they don't give a damn about that either. Disgusting!
it's quite tragic really, many unemployed coal miners would love to be working at one of tRump's resorts
