There are only 2 million unemployed Americans right now. Most of the illegal immigrants have jobs and fill in the gaps, such as working on farms and factories. If the 20 million illegal immigrants are deported, want that create a massive laborer shortage? Won’t the work follow the workers to Mexico?

    It kills me that this kind of mindset exists that would welcome the circumstances you describe. At the end of the day, it’s so much simpler and cheaper to just pay people what they’re worth.

        It doesn’t take that much imagination to figure out a system where rich assholes can have their yachts without putting millions of people in slavery. But of course the cruelty is the point.
