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?

    That’s not bad. Costs are supposed to rise to match the supply with the demand. That’s literally how this all works.

    These jobs should be automated out of existence. Every time the cost goes up that becomes more and more viable.
