i don't see how legalizing them is instantly more tax?

But ofc they need to go through the process

couldn't it be net loss if they start claiming more benefits?

Id rather be poor in a capitalist nation than poor in a communist one

well being rich in a communist nation is still fucked

what use is money if they got no food?

Poor in a rich country > rich in a poor country, at least where the 'States is concerned

So just cause they broke the law should not mean we dont give them a second chance

sure, after rehabilitation

kick em out and let them go through the propper legal channels.

Sorry been distracted by work

Gotta take people around to open doors

The reason legalizing them and cutting off more illegal immigration would be a net gain would be simple you put a strong emphasis on integration and you also raise illegal immigration pay by making them legal

Raising over all wages

Though only slightly

They havent been integrating though

This gets more tax revenue but as long as you keep more people out

Wages will stop stagnating

Like it's not an ideal solution.

Also the amount of wellfare going to them is too high

Rewarding someone for breaking the law

Dosent help that they also send the money back overseas as well

Rewarding someone for breaking the law spits in the face of those who didn't

I know it does

But what else do we do?

Also doesn't help that despite what people say, there is pay being done under the table

Deport lol

Why though

Like every other country

Your spitting in the faces of those who want a better life

Because they broke the law wrt joining the country

Isn't it a bit arrogant to assume the US is the only place they could ever have a better life?

Like I know there are a lot of criminals and such but just cause your a legal resident does not mean you cant be deported

When's Mexico getting better if everyone's moving to America?

If you break the law you can still get deported

They already did break the law

Yeah I know

I'm talking about amnesty

We forgive them once

Hell iirc if you break the law in Canada and then try to go to the states you'll get yeeted

And then if they take that kindness for granted
