Billionaires.
They exploit the countries these people escape from, and then, they use the migrants as a distraction and pay Fox to demonize them.
Notice that Fox never explains what is causing these people to migrate. Foreign policy and exploitation of their resources is the cause.
They don’t want you to know that.
Also they’re cheap labor so companies hire them.
What's with the Fox reference? The only viable reason to claim asylum in our country is persecution. These asylum seekers aren't being persecuted they are coming here for economic opportunity on the backs of the American worker/taxpayer so most of their claims are bogus. Illegal aliens have no right to violate our borders for any reason either. We know why they come here we are just saying that it's no excuse!
We are aware that some greedy employers want cheap, illegal labor and they need to be held accountable right along with these "migrants".
Oh? I didn't realize they were all criminals, but thank you for enlightening me.
You could at least TRY to somewhat disguise your ignorance. Maybe just a little.
How are they surviving/working in our country without committing felony ID theft and/or tax evasion? That's not criminal? Violating our immigration laws isn't against the law either? Now who's the ignorant one?

Actually you are. Asylum seekers are not breaking laws. Maybe stay in your lane and just keep spewing your stupid nonsense instead of trying to pick apart a comment that wasn't even directed at you.
No, they are absolutely NOT safe in those border camps that they were living in while waiting for asylum. They were/are actually being targeted by the local gangs in mexico. The women were being sexually assaulted. EVERYONE was in danger of being kidnapped and held for ransom (and many, many WERE kidnapped). And, of course, the US would allow them to come to the border for asylum, process them, and then send them back to Mexico on foot with all their belongings in a giant clear bag, which just made them targets for the mexican gangs. They are/were FAR from safe.
this is a sympathetic report on Matamoros - easily the largest of the camps. One brief discussion of men entering tents .... but they are their "own people", yes? What would they do in the US?
No mention of kidnapping. No mention of gangs. Maybe you have other links to support your claim.
My comment on safety relates to "from the conditions which cause them to flee their home country".

You can talk until you are blue in the face - I see many on this forum that have no problem with helping "legal" immigrants. You must not read those posts.
I challenge you right now to start a Go Fund Me acct to help all these illegals you are worried about. Come back and post the link as I'm sure all your buddies would be happy to donate.
Problem is - people like you are all talk and no bite - most are so far removed from areas where illegals live - you have no clue to what problems actually occur due to them - you just listen to the liberal news and pat yourself on the back for being such an understanding and kind human being.
Anti American? No. We know they are seeking a better life & will have a better life in this country. That’s called pro America
At the same time, they are degrading our education, environment and using taxes paid by American citizens. Again, we do NOT owe the world’s population a better way of life. And, illegal immigration is not Pro-America.
No, they'd rather exploit our own citizens with low wages.
that discussion is ongoing on POC.
Basically, you should start your own company, and pay all your employees $20/hr (or more, if needed for COL in your location) + benefits.
