Oh the horror!

You don’t care about small businesses being affected by tariffs?

I care more about how illegal immigrants have placed such a drain on our economy.

We know. You keep telling us every minute. Do you have any other concerns or interests in life?

The PP has no idea what she is talking about. (She's probably posting from Russia.)

Immigrants pay taxes. They take jobs that Americans won't take. They add so much money TO our economy.

The right-wing oligarchy is spreading this smear campaign of lies about immigrants draining our economy to hide the fact that the oligarchy is the actual drain on our economy!! They are stealing us blind right beneath our noses.

The immigrants are keeping our economy going.

The right-wing won't deport a fraction of the number they claim they will because to do so will crash the US economy.

Those deportations won't happen, except to a few hundred thousand poor undocumented souls, most of whom will keep trying until they get into the US.

And when they get here, they will find jobs because America needs workers.

Illegal immigrants are not paying taxes. Get it through your head.

They pay way more than the Trump family

Undocumented immigrants paid $96.7 billion in federal, state, and local taxes in 2022. Most of that amount, $59.4 billion, was paid to the federal government while the remaining $37.3 billion was paid to state and local governments.

How much in taxes?

How much is recouped vs expenditures for them plus children?

How many dollars are sent overseas?

How much housing would be available if they were removed?

Here’s the issue. As an employer I’m not allowed to question documents even if I suspect they’re false. I’m also not allowed to not hire someone based on those suspicions. You can’t make an example of me simply because my defense would be "how was I supposed to know". You can’t sue a business for questioning documents and blame them for not questioning them at the same time.

Otherwise, there is going to be a penalty. From Trump’s perspective, it’s a matter of respect. And the US has been disrespected for far too long.

Is this a parody of a MAGA poster?

This is beautiful!

You realize we can just choose a different coffee right? That’s the point, people won’t pay it, and they will suffer.

I was not aware coffee was a necessity.

Yeah but I’m sure all of the coffee shops and cafes that sell it won’t appreciate it.

Then they will lose business. Or purchase their coffee elsewhere.

The world isn’t static- you should embrace change!

Of course they will lose business and some will go under and their employees will now be unemployed.. sounds not worth it just to bully Columbia.

COLOMBIA...with two O's.

Not only can't the PP spell "Colombia," the stupid MAGA White House can't either. Minor point but it just goes to show that they're ignorant AND they don't run their written products by a copyeditor. So sloppy.

It's a problem on both sides dear. A liberal PP upthread also spelled it "Columbia" and of course attributed it to autocorrect.

What is the White House attribute it to?

autocorrect? There are stupid people on both sides: stupid MAGA, stupid woke liberal. okay?

You can use e-verify.

You are correct, and guess what? I still must hire them and let them work while they "resolve the mismatch".

Try again.

They pay BILLIONS in taxes and to the SS/Medicare funds without seeing any of that back.

Link showing the BILLIONS?

Lolololol. You think for a moment that $96 billion comes close to what we put out in housing, education, school lunches and Emergency Room services?

NYC alone paid over 4.5 billion for illegal immigrants in one year.

MCPS budget is $3 billion and how much of that goes to ESL? And Maryland is a small state!
