They come because Republicans keep hiring them. [/quote]

Great. Then you agree:
- enforce the borders, turn away illegals
- stop citizenship by birth
- deport illegal alien criminals and fraudsters, and their children/ families 
- tax remittances
- bolster worker visa programs
- require e-verify
- fine employers, deport illegals trying to work
- clear phony asylum book, deport all asylum country shoppers (if you traipsed through 1+ other country, you are a fraud)  [/quote]

All of this sounds fine but why tax remittances? Are you assuming any money remitted was earned by illegal immigrants and therefore never taxed?

[/quote]

You tax remittances to decrease the benefit of being in the US.  Trump can do it on Day 1 and should.  There should be no rewards for illegally entering the US.

[b]Also, we don't need worker visa programs--those get abused[/b].  [/quote]

Not even seasonal agricultural worker visa programs?[/quote]

Those are slave labor programs. Government sanctioned, so it's fine. [/quote]

American workers don't want those jobs.  Even for $26 an hour.  And those jobs supply us with the majority of our vegetables, fruits, nuts along with being the labor for a lot of our meat industry.  You can pontificate while you starve.

I'm as liberal as they come but there's a point where the virtue signaling goes beyond basic human survival needs.[/quote]

stop if with the chamber of commerce propaganda.  [b]Americans will do any job.[/b]

Chicken farms

Less than one week after ICE raided 7 food processing facilities in Mississippi apprehending nearly 700 illegal workers, American citizens are rushing to freshly-available jobs.

Koch Foods is headquartered in Chicago but maintains a chicken processing facility in Mississippi that employed 243 of the 680 undocumented Latino workers arrested in the raids last Thursday. Koch has since collaborated with the Mississippi Department of Employment Security (MDES), holding a job fair to recruit new, legal, workers, according to the Associated Press.

The fair raked in 200 applications before noon, according to local media. The company says it will require applicants to present two forms of identification before being hired, according to CNN. MDES will also vet all Mississippi workers for legality using the state’s E-Verify system, according to USA Today.

I would not do that work for peanuts with no benefits, like most US workers. maybe they should increase the wages and add health care? crazy idea to people like you.

Econ 101 will give you background on the impact of Supply and Demand on prices.

if Supply goes up, the cost will come down.
if Supply goes down, the cost goes up.

if we were to limit the overwhelming immigration of low wage workers, the wages for low wage workers would increase.

I think that is a good thing.

people like you think that is a bad thing.

+1 the idea that illegal immigrants do jobs that Americans won't do has to be one of the greatest political lies told, believed and  perpetuated in modern history. Employers skip over Americans intentionally to hire people here without authorization for a variety of reasons and they spread the lie that they can't find anyone to work. Even the new president of Mexico recently said this publicly.[/quote]

Americans won't do those jobs as indentured servants. Those workers are charged room and board by the employer and paid "the remainder." [/quote]

Why would anyone argue in favor of this?[/quote]
