The problem I have is that deporting all the people already here will just make us lose lot of money, and look bad globally

once boston dynamics secures the border and makes a few examples of people, no one will go near it

Building the wall and then legalizing the ones here would help to resolve both issues

better yet, use AI drone swarms

that would cause massive amounts of political instability

Both them we still have ~22 mill uneducated citizens

sometimes, the cost is worth it to the stability of the country

In my opinion there is no optimal solution

Each solution has a drawback

the dems want 22mil uneducated citizens

some good votes

Do we take the global reputation that we will take a harsh stance immigrants?

wouldn't that also entitle them to government aid?

This could hurt legal immigration.

Good

there is no harsh stance on immigrants, only illegal immigrants

how would it hurt legal imigants when the reputation is fuck people who enter ilegally?

That's not how it would be perceived

people are smart enough to see the difference

most people around the world dont' like ilegal immigrants, that seems like a none issue to me

conflating ilegals with legals seems rather dishonest

Whether it's right or wrong is irrelevant

We're either taking poor to middle class people that will drive wages down, or highly educated people that will brain drain their countries of origin

The global system will see that we took a stand against immigration

Some country's wont care but most of the "educational" countries will

i don't think actual citzens will care much for government morale grand standing

what global system? the one Soros is trying to build? lol fuck them

And only the western lefties disagree with a hard stance on immigration

The populist anti migrant movement is growing stronger every day in hte west

And the east already hates immigrants

Whether you want to admit it or not we need other countries and immigration

Atleast for now

Needing other countries for trade is not the same as needing them for labor

yeah, and those citzens that would be immigrants won't give a fuck about their own government morale grand standing over none-issues

We don't need more people

they'll look up the laws, and go for it if it looks worth it

or if they have good oppertunities

Isolationism right now would destroy and destabilize our economy

'immigrants will do jobs amaricans don't want to do'
robots are already farming and this will scale exponentially. no need for low wage jobs soon.

I never said we should be isolationist. That comes with a lot more baggage than what I'm saying. Lower immigration isn;t a big deal
