You notice how conservatives wanna protect workers and liberals wanna protect businesses when it comes to illegal immigration?

Spoiler alert: the workers are the immigrants.

With a lack of immigrants doing farm labor (legal or otherwise), crops are literally rotting in the fields because farms can't get people to do the work. It's not "taking jobs away" from citizens if said citizens refuse to take them even when they're wide open. If you don't have a grasp of basic macroeconomics, don't talk about "jobs" like they're a commodity traded on the exchange market. It makes you look silly.

Don't get me wrong -- I'm staunchly opposed to human trafficking across the border. I hate that we have people on both sides of the paycheck screwing the system (albeit the workers are much more sympathetic). But the truth is that we only have so many resources for enforcement. Plenty of them are contributing to society even though they technically shouldn't be here. It's inefficient and ineffective to go after these people, especially the ones who had no choice in the matter (dreamers). Focus on the ones who are actually dangerous, especially the smugglers and "coyotes."

And before Ulti claims that DACA lied about who it helps, put up your resources or shut up.


Right but the arguments are about protecting our legally-here workers
