we struggle to manage a few dozen
i reckon deporting 2 million and jailing a further number
will wipe out unemployment in the usa, and they will need
to import labour ( labor
) to help carry out the task
huge huge task, imo

It would obviously be in spaced out stages though donny.
These people arguing against Trumps idea, i can't really see how they can, If there illegal - surely the word illegal says it all. |

Who do you think does all the jobs Americans won't do? It's a fantastic soundbite for Republicans as it fires up their supporters. The reality is it would hurt the economy.

illegal or not its a huge task just to find them
them prove they are illegal, then pay their fare home |

The luvvies refer to em as irregular now ron, not illegal, better if it doesn't sound like the law is being broken.

obama got rid of 3 million illegal immigrants during his 8 years.
so the apparatus is there, i presume it just need more money. |

With respect Hank.
i think this they do the jobs we won't do is an invented thing, there's certain types of jobs in the UK you have a 10 x better chance of getting if your black or gay etc. what would anyone say the jobs are in the UK a white (British) man / woman would refuse to do? |

Ron I lived in Texas for years - it isn't something that is made up. To give a simplistic answer to a complicated issue - your average American is not going to make ends meet doing some of the jobs at the $ available. However, if you're from Mexico the wage will be a significant increase and you'd be able to send money back home. A better solution in my mind is to make a path to citizenship.

Look at London Transport jobs - what chance would a white person have unless
they had a family member already working there. as i've previously said someone in the fire brigade said you've got minimal chance of getting in if your white & the ideal candidate, they're looking for gay's, blacks etc how sick is this Politically Correct pattern, you want the best person for the job in all cases......& this they do the jobs we dont want to do converts to the employees want to pay them as little as possible.......i was on a better hourly rate than now 7 years ago....work that one out |

Surely a large % of Democrats must be disgusted by the reaction/riots Hank?

Don't fancy 3 or 4 outraged hubbys chasing me down with a lasso tbh Hank..

I'm sure most are Ron. I've already said it on another thread but they are better off looking for a better candidate and putting their energies in to changing the broken electoral college system. |
|
By:
Hank, was the electoral college system broken prior to last week?
|
|
By:
Yes saddo. I have been an opponent ever since I studied US politics. Just as I believe fptp is flawed. I think even a certain Mr Trump tweeted similar musings...
|

By:
Thanks.

Idiotic nonsense from Hank Hill . Let millions of immigrants into the country pushing down wages and conditions and then says woe is us we can't do without them our workers won't work for those wages. Well yes that's the outcome, what do you suggest as a solution?
Then the electoral system is broken, and should be changed. Says he noticed when studying American politics. Well the electoral system is there for very good reasons, put in place by people much smarter than himself. Perhaps he wants to wreck it and put in place something worse, it's possible ? he doesn't say. He must have been a very lazy student. |

To reply to the OP
It'll cost a fortune and take forever, especially with Trump cutting taxes, building walls and improving the US infrastructure - in other words, politically expedient bs. Only marginally more plausible than "Prevent Muslims from entering the country until the authorities figure out what to do with them" I mean just think THAT one through! If they stop anyone with a big bushy beard, that's Brian Blessed fkd and I doubt Susan Boyle will be playing many concerts there in future. |

By:
Trump said 2-3 million, 2 million is the lower end.
He will borrow, borrow and borrow some more. |
|
By:
Not a bad target though is it to rid your country of illegal immigrants.

By:
I'm sure the native Indians are bemused by the whole thing.

By:
Did not Davy Crockett kill around 2 million at the Alamo?
|
|
By:
Why doesn't one of you post 'Aren't we all immigrants'.
Would make as much sense as your last 2 posts. |
|
By:
was gonna say the same thing S H.
american indians probably dont give a sh1t tbh but must wonder what planet the yanks are from. they invite themselves to their land and then bar other humans from entering. |
|
By:
anything that happened 200 years ago doesn't bother me, I insist on being unbothered by that.

By:
Odd that the same people who refer back to injustices towards native peoples, now use nativism as an insult when it suits.

By:
is the duke of edinburgh an illegal immigrant ?
|
|
By:
Taking civilisation to a lawless and ungoverened land is hardly an argument against illegal immigrants.
|
|
By:
It's not so hard as it might appear.
And America is not the UK. Simple round up those with a conviction - whoosh gone. Anyone caught in the country illegally - whoosh gone. Anyone who thinks they were ejected illegally or unfairly can apply to have their cases heard, after they have been ejected and using their own money. All it takes is the will to do it. |

By:
You could set the cut off point to where an immigrant became a US citizen.
Although that could be adjusted to include certain crimes committed before they gained their US status. |
