I know an older gentleman that was complaining about how communities in the Midwest are dying out. Younger people leave and never come back. Old people stay and then die off. His only fix for it is to stop abortion. I asked him why not let immigrants in legally to the country to move into those communities so they could grow again. He gave me a death glare and said no.
Republicans don’t want to fix the border. They want to make a show and blame Democrats for the border. After 30 years of complaining about the border Republicans have made no attempts at comprehensive reforms that could address illegal immigration. They just want performative politics to campaign on. >

How to solve illegal immigration in one easy step: fine anyone who hires illegal immigrants.
And yet they never will. Why? Because they want cheap near slave-like labor, not an end to immigration. >

Huh I had not heard of this, interesting.
Went exactly as you’d expect and shows why this will never become a thing. “An attack on entrepreneurship” they call it in the article haha.
They need it to be legal to hire illegal immigrants because they’re slaves with no rights it’s that simple.
