You sound naive. If you and I are supporting them, why worry about a job?

Undocumented people are not able to get any public benefits. Only someone who actually has no clue would make such a claim. To the contrary and in reality, undocumented people stay in the shadows and work covertly to stay "out of the system" - it is only right wing BS and rhetoric that paints a picture of undocumented people living a life of luxury on the public dole.

Among other things, undocumented people:

-drive unlicensed and without insurance
-contribute to housing code violations by living in homes not meant to hold over a certain number of unrelated occupants
-go to the ER for most of their medical needs, and fail to pay
-utilize public schools, demanding a shift in resources to accommodate those who do not speak English, or may be at a level of learning below their age
-price out citizens doing similar work. Example: in the past, a drywaller could support themself and their family. With seemingly unlimited undocumented competition working for much less, those drywallers now need to “learn to code”

How can you say something this untrue this with a straight face? Let's take just ONE example. Undocumented people use the public schools. That is a fact. Public schools are a public benefit. That is a fact.

At least a quarter of the FCPS high schools are in this situation. Numbers not at 90%, but still very high. FCPS and the Board of Supervisors have strategically protected other schools.

Post a link.

You post a link.

You asked “why do Democrats block E-verify,” I googled, I don’t see anything. So post a link.

So let’s say half of those “undocumented” kids are, in fact, born here. They’ll likely be entitled to stay here for their life. You want us to not educate these children at all? I mean I know Repukes hate education and children and people who fail the brown bag test, but you just want a bunch of children unsupervised at all times?

The bolded is on the employer, which is, according to people like you, usually a republican. Why does the GOP oppose eVerify? The bolded is exactly why. Ask Trump, he employed all sorts of undocumented workers at his clubs, even while he was president.

So you would rather have an uneducated pack of kids roaming the streets all day? Think about how that would work out.

DP. The above post was in response to this absurd statement: "Undocumented people are not able to get any public benefits."

And, we would rather that "uneducated pack of kids" remain in their own country instead of pulling resources from actual citizens.

It kind of is. It’s what you all most complain about (despite your probably being well into grandparent age).

I consider labor shortages wonderful. I have never known anything bad to come from a labor shortage, and what we are doing with our immigration policy is keeping the labor market in constant surplus.

Vernon Briggs
Cornell Labor Economist

The underlying truth about the immigration battle is that is is fundamentally between those with an insatiable appetite for more cheap, disposable, foreign workers, and those who embrace the social good of tight labor markets.

DP Do you think they’re living the high life on government money??? RW have this fantasy that people slip over the border then get $3,000 a month forever from the government. Weird.

See when you say things like this it shows that you are a white liberal who has never and would never live anywhere close to illegal immigrants. Though you would happily employ one to watch your kid bc then your baby will hear Spanish and somehow instantly become bilingual upon learning to speak OR if you need your house cleaned OR inured bushes trimmed

And of course people come here for the benefits. They are coming countries where the government can’t even provide them clean running water. They come to the US and have a kid and their kid gets benefits - WIC, food stamps, etc. I bet you don’t even realize how many of the adults here illegally have kids back home being raised by someone else. They come here, meet someone new, and start a new family. They send home money each month to their whoever is raising their kids for them.

That is fine. How do you prevent someone who is not an American dropping a kid on US soil (they can be documented but a foreign national) from not being an American without changing the US Constitution?
