wtf?

you've been pretty free with your assumptions up to this point, why stop now?

Why aren't we more interested in asking the people who subsidize illegals why they feel such a need to hire them over an actual citizen?

I guess how I look at this is if my neighbor is knowingly employing or renting to an illegal and he rapes or kills someone I know and I asked him "What the hell?  Why did you bring that person here?" and he goes "Pffft......Biden man, made it easy.  Couldn't help it!" I'm not going to say "Ah, well you have a point there."

We have to look out for ourselves and each other, but by all means let's just sit around and wait for the federal government to make our bad choices illegal.  

are you saying we should be hiring Illegal Minors??

But it is something I always wondered. US politicians propose walls and remain in Mexico programs and all kinds of ideas, but hardly do I hear anyone say well maybe we should control valid work permits more. Which seems to be if not the most effective, so at least the most feasible thing to do.

For sure I have an idea about why this is never even debated, but still. Instead folks want to spend huge fortunes on building and maintaining a wall even though most illegal immigrants just overstay their visas.

The worker permits are very limited. Especially for regular labor workers. 

Even exploited many can still make more daily than they would in their home countries. So that's not gonna stop them. 

What needs to happen, is the hammer needs to really come down on ANYONE that hires illegals, but it's like id'ing an 18 year old that has a license showing he is 21... 

And don't you find it ironic that the Democrats were celebrating that they negotiated a wall being built along the Arizona border, after arguing with Trump for the last 4 years about how ineffective it would be??
