Sorry, but I don’t care anymore.
Companies like FedEx also aren't hiring undocumented workers. Higher wages also lead to higher prices for consumers. Everyone likes the thought of made in America they just don't want to pay for it.
Based on Trump's plan on tariffs, if anyone has been eyeing that black Friday deal on a Hisense or TCL TV you better grab it this year.

I will keep using Mexicans as an example because it's what I'm most familiar with.
They aren't stealing any glamorous jobs.
Are you kidding me? If we seriously got rid of all the undocumented workers entire sectors in the food industry would struggle, from pig and egg farms to slaughterhouses for beef.
So with these jobs they aren't exactly taking desirable homes off the market either. A lot don't even stay year round.

My point was Hispanics didn't vote for Trump because of any immigration policy, they voted on the economy period. Like a lot of people did.
If Trump doesn't come through on the economy, he is going to start to fall out of favor with a lot of voters pretty fast.

It’s very close to the definition of insanity.
But Trump read Mein Kampf so obviously he’s Hitler.🤪
Insanity is possible, but I like to call it willful ignorance! Keep repeating the same things over and over again that didn’t work and actually cost them the election.

Presidents have a much greater chance of affecting your life negatively than positive. Most of the things we do for ourselves have positive impacts on our lives. The last four years is a shining example of failure with a president negatively impacting lives., for many people the hope with Trump is that he gets rid of onerous regulations, and mostly just gets out out of the way of our lives. if he doesn’t do that, the next Republican will lose as well.

Conversely, if he’s successful, the Democrats are screwed for at least a decade.

Lol apparently you missed the top part where I said nothing about Hitler but was replying to some other thoughts. Well at least you don't fly off the handle just because I don't trust Trump so I get labeled an extreme leftist with TDS lol.

From what I’ve read and seen of the symptoms of TDS, I’m good. But usually it is as easy as reading someone’s post to diagnose if they are a TDS sufferer.
Trump is the TDS no other president types at 1am on Twitter in ALL CAPS! I would feel crazy doing that just as a normal person and he's our future president lol

I never seen that. I Didn’t follow Trump on Twitter, I never read Q anon, and I haven’t watched Fox since 2010 so if it wasn’t for all the Democrats that evidently do watch and follow these medias a lot of Republicans would never even hear about these things.

The Ukraine has been known as a money laundering country. When the politicians and MSM was pushing to get the people to stand behind Ukraine I knew I wasn’t going to be a cheerleader for them. I don’t have to be a cheerleader for either side. There is no reason the USA should be sending hundreds of billions to any country without a full detailed report of where the money is going. When you find out the truth you start to understand why politicians do things that can be covered up. This might be 1 reason the Democrats waved the Ukraine flag in our capital.

As an observer with a front row seat at Ground Zero of the effects of decades of excessive immigration, I have some observations to share:

Immigrants aren't just here picking crops and scrubbing toilets anymore. Not by a long shot.

Once upon a time in California I remember entry level jobs, and affordable housing. As Mexican immigration increased, I couldn't help to notice that those things seemed to decrease proportionally. I watched it happen.

There is no labor shortage. When large labor intense companies (FedEx as only one example of thousands) stop treating their blue-collar workers like garbage, then you will know there is truly a labor shortage.

If you think that any savings that companies realize due to cheap immigrant labor are being passed to the consumer, I've got ocean front property in Arizona to sell you.
It's a proven fact that the undocumented add far more to the US economy than any negative impact. In CA we feed the nation and export all over the world. How you believe that removing that workforce is going to somehow improve the economy and lives of citizens is disingenuous at best.
 
No. Between 3 comments on this page from UPS guy, Dano and you, you were fed a narrative that isn't true. None of you speak from any real life experience on the subject I'm guessing.
Mexicans come here all the time that are technically illegal, do hard work, harder jobs than any of you have ever done in your life or would probably refuse to do, and then go back to their families in Mexico with US dollars that are a fortune for them. They stay and visit with family that are legal here. They are someone's cousin or family relation. I will add 100 percent agree any criminal should be kicked out immediately.
Fed a narrative? Harder work than I've done or ever would do? Go :censored2: yourself, I have more tools than you have sense. How close to the border do you live? The reality is that the flooding of illegals is a strain on government finance and the healthcare system, regardless of how many of them work hard, stay with family, or whatever. I've met more illegals than you've seen on tv you :censored2:ing ass-hat. You clearly know :censored2: about :censored2:. When you get your "real life" facts from your television, you're the one being fed a narrative.

I’m not sure I wanna take my advice on the economy from someone who probably has a Cadillac Escalade they can’t afford parked in front of their ghetto house with a pitbull tied up to the front porch and empty 40 ounce bottles laying everywhere. 🤷‍♂️
