[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Apologies if there’s another thread on this…

But really? It seems like people I know who are not particularly affected by this issue are focused on it as a deciding factor in the election. It’s immigration, immigration, immigration.

Is immigration that terrible for our country? In my world at least, the most obvious related issue I see is that small businesses don’t have enough labor. So immigration is a good thing.

Maybe I’m myopic. Can someone please explain?

What you are missing is legal vs illegal immigration.

It’s a big deal.

Legal immigration, we get people from other countries before they are allowed to come her. We need more doctors, lawyers, teachers, engineers.  We need many legal immigrants.

What we don’t need is 10 million migrants or illegal immigrants here claiming asylum. Most of these migrants don’t qualify and economic asylum is not a thing.  If they were persecuted in their original country, once they left and hit places like Mexico, they are no longer in danger from the original claim.

And how many of these do we need to work in Fields picking produce. We have tens of thousands living in the cites doing nothing. Many are not educated and can barely speak or read Spanish.  Where are they all to live as we also have a housing shortage?

So we need more legal immigrants and less migrants.[/quote]

After the MAGA lying about the LEGAL Haitian immigrants in Ohio, I no longer buy the “we’re only against illegal immigration” line.  [/quote]
