You guys are so afraid of the Boogeyman illegal immigrants that you're not seeing the automation and outsourcing of your current and future jobs by the controlling class.

Automation has been a threat since the industrial revolution and way before. It hasn't stopped jobs. And there absolutely should be protection against outsourcing.

You're a trumptard. How much in taxes do you think you pay? And what % of that do you think goes to immigrants?

If you make in the mid six figures you should be more pissed at Jeff Bezos than you are at immigrants. He and his buddies are costing you a lot more.

You're kind of clueless of what is going on at the border. Establishment democrat elites are the decision makers for their parties. Open borders dooms demographics for anyone who desires responsible spending in government. It has nothing to do with whats right for america. It's like a checkmate move for the establishment to make that ensures their power forever, in just a number of years. They get to make more and more of these bloated bills with irresponsible spending that does stuff like sends more money to Israel. Then Israel bombs the rest of the middle east with our resources and then somehow we're back at war in the middle east fighting that skirmish. And our low/middle class wages stay stagnant because we have hordes of low class workers filtering in from the border. And tons and tons of other problems.
No, that’s pretty close to what I’m saying. No party has a full claim on adventurism but saying both sides are bad vastly understated the extent to the corruption R’s are in your country.

Either way, do away with both or hijack one for the better good and you’ll be in a much better place .

No, the goal of a national emergency is for Trump to scam the stupidest people in his base for 2 more years -- Ann Coulter.
Yes, MAGAts. One of the three people who does all of your "thinking" for you gets it.

She should have said "scam the stupidest people in his already laughably stupid base", but she gets it. Fat Rush gets it. Fat Hannity gets it.

Basically, Trans-Larry, Curly, and Moe are all smarter than you are. You're being duped, simpletons.

Immigration has destroyed the bottom end of the entire construction industry in the same way automation did to manufacturing. When people distill the argument down to “Mexicans only clean houses and pick vegetables” you lose a lot of the nuance and therefore ignore the complains of the vast majority of people who’s lives are negatively affected by that.

Roofers, deck builders, landscapers and other semi-skilled but non red-seal trades commonly make $20/hour in countries that have tight controls on their immigration. That has a huge effect on the overall economy
