If we shipped all back to where ever, we as Americans would probably starve in less than a month. Who do you think does most of the farm labor, meat processing, and crop harvesting? Farmers would have a hard time finding anyone willing to do a lot of the work at the wages paid to the i******s.
how about a seasonal farm workers program where they come in and work the season and then go home where the farm owners are responsible for all costs of the people they bring in such as medical, housing, education and etc.? Why is it a good thing to pay people substandard wages so they have to rely on others to pay their medical, housing and food bills? Yes paying a wage that actually is a living wage will make things cost more but we are all paying the price now anyway. We need a legal immigration system where we know who is coming in and are not a drain on our system. We need to end chain migration where they can bring in any extended family members who then can go on our welfare programs or S.S. program. We can not have open boarders were hundreds of thousands and yes even millions come across with out screening or limitations any more than most people would allow anyone to come into their house and start living in it with out being invited and knowing who they are. And let me repeat I and most are for legal immigration just not illegal entry into the country.
