Not true. According to the dairy industry the loss of illegal workers would almost double the cost of dairy. That would be close to a 100 billion dollars. Other industries would have similar problems.
We should not be here...but we are. And we have no will to do much about illegals. So it appears we will simply live with it until it gets worse.
Dumb actually.
^ This guy thinks making them legal fixes illegal immigration. The new math folks. A rapist? Make rape legal. Easy peasy.
They most likely have more in common with you than they do with anyone in their parent's country.
It doesn't matter since they are here illegally and they are taught the culture and language of their country by their parents. It stays with them the rest of their lives. It's their country to since they were born there.

I know. I just have laugh at his stupid remarks. 11 million illegal aliens here opposed to over 300 million citizens and legal immigrants but our economy and the employers will suffer with the loss of the former? lol. I don't know how many times he has to be told that only 2-4% of illegals are working on farms anyway and for those jobs there are unlimited visas for legal workers.
They're more American than wherever they came from.
Never asked for the predicament. "home" is a strange land. here is home, where they don't belong.. But they know nowhere else.
What would you do with their parents then since they committed the illegal act? Shouldn't they be deported for that? Why would the DACAs want to remain here while their parents are deported as our laws state? I thought they oppose the separation of families, thingy? Most of these DACAs were brought here after the age of 6 so they know their homelands and are taught the culture and language of their country by their parents.
As for another poster's comments that illegals are a boon to our economy its's utter BS! They take jobs from Americans, reduce wages, overcrowd our schools, jails, hospitals, roads and neighborhoods. They commit felony ID theft to work or tax evasion by working for cash. They cost us over $100 billion a year and send billions out of our country not spent in our economy. We don't need 1.8 million DACAs competing for jobs and resources against Americans either.

you're mixing up legal vs illegal immigrants again.

Half of all workers on U.S. dairy farms are immigrants, and the damage from losing those workers would extend far beyond the farms, nearly doubling retail milk prices and costing the total U.S. economy more than $32 billion
