Probably need to amend your statement. Undocumented immigrants are not eligible for federal housing subsidies like public housing or Section 8 assistance. By law, Federal healthcare is provided only to stabilize a life, limb, or eyesight emergency at facilities receiving Medicare or Medicaid. States and cities determine the scope of humanitarian assistance provided based on local and regional citizen values and priorities.

Yes, get every illegal out of here.

We need to completely shut off all immigration unless from Europe or Australia, period.

are. Turns out cheap illegal labor build crappy products.


Amen! And they aren’t charging less. The OP probably lives in his mom’s basement and has no fricking clue what he’s talking about.
I’ve had roofing work, lawn maintenance and care, all done by likely illegals.
The roofers has to come back and redo shoddy work. The cost was $$$$. The lawn the first lawn guys were $$$$ and unreliable. The next were reliable but even more expensive.
Contractors are not passing on savings by using illegal labor. They charge the same for higher margins.

Watched Kudlow tonight and he had a Rasmussen pollster on. The guy said Trump is still polling very favorably on the immigration crackdown but could go further. He said 60% of poll respondents were in favor of going after employers of illegals.
If you take away the ability to work and they can't get on public assistance they got no choice but to leave. Don't understand why the DOJ doesn't start building some cases.

I haven’t bothered to read the thread, but surely someone has pointed out that in the red state the bad guys that we want to deport first are in prison and will be handed over to ice with no incident.
Construction sites will not be the target and the public will not be able to interfere because the apprehension would be made within the prison or jail.
There. That should clear it up for you
You’re welcome.

Why not? Low hanging fruit if we want to get many of these people out of the country.

The low hanging fruit are the ones that are already detained.

Those are a drop in the bucket and we all know it.

We aren’t going to get millions out of here in what time Trump has left waiting for them to get arrested for something else.

We’ve seemed to manage just fine when past administrations shipped millions of beaners back. How’s that work ?

Yes. When I first started my career I worked on my days off framing houses. Weekly the builder I worked for was approached by guys trying to get him to employ an “immigrant” crew. We were all white country boys learning a trade. Of a crew of 6, 3 went on to be general contractors.

I was blessed to work for someone that knew he was losing money using us but had a moral value to keep us so we could learn and be successful

Millions are self-deporting and other than incarcerated illegals are caught up in the drag net out for the worse of the worst.

What more would you do and how would you get it done?

Be realistic.

Wrong. The dangerous criminals are the one that are already detained. The low hanging fruit are those that have already self deported.

How did we ever manage to build homes before illegals became a thing? In fact it was cheaper back then to build, even after accounting for inflation.
