exactly. I think mexico reached their quota for the next 50 years. How about letting in a proportion from other countries.

So..... Trump coerced the people in DC to "riot"...........and now Biden is coercing Foreign citizens to invade the united states. Got it.

At least there is proof of Biden coercing by his own words while Trump never told his supporters to riot. Of course the left operates under a double standard and lies about what was actually said.

Not only that but how about others from different ethnic groups and cultures? I mean since we are supposed to be about diversity and all, right?

You cant be serious.

I pay $30k I property taxes and 6 figures in state income tax.

Look, there are enough citizens that cost more than they pay. We cant do much about that, but damn, we dont need to import more.

]
Under the legislation, those living in the U.S. as of Jan. 1, 2021, without legal status would have a five-year path to temporary legal status, or a green card, if they pass background checks, pay taxes and fulfill other basic requirements. From there, it’s a three-year path to naturalization, if they decide to pursue citizenship.

For some immigrants, the process would be quicker. So-called Dreamers, the young people who arrived in the U.S. illegally as children, as well as agricultural workers and people under temporary protective status could qualify more immediately for green cards if they are working, are in school or meet other requirements.

You notice, I didn't complain about paying for other US citizens. But in what universe should US citizens have to pay for every 3rd world person that illegally comes here? It is completely insane. And people like you want to allow unlimited amounts of them into the country.

You do realize the middle class are paying for them too, don't you?

So what happens when their legalized?
The disingenuous would say that they will stay in the jobs that Americans won’t do. Those same hypocrites would tell you that these people already are Americans and would definitely be so after amnesty. So why then would these new Americans engage in work that Americans are to good for? What will the businesses do?

I’ve spoken to many employers who hire these people and almost unanimously, they state that they have no interest in employing legal workers. Legal workers don’t fit into their profit first, exploitable labor business models.

Now the unholy alliance between American business and democrats shouldn’t allow for this, right? That’s where this 8 year approach comes in. It addresses those with concerns of blanket amnesties and keeps the amnestied on a leash of sorts so they don’t leave their jobs or stay all high and mighty. 8 years would likely also be the amount of time it will take to transition a fresh new huge illegal labor force to replace their slave army.

It’s either that or parade their noble attempts to provide relief to poor illegals only to be blocked again by those evil Republicans. Gotta do something about all those Latinos voting for someone like Trump and not them. And the employers get to keep their peons for a while longer.
