The Chamber of Commerce wants alien invaders because they can pay them 1/4 of what they’d pay a legal worker. Not only that, but illegal aliens won’t complain when the businesses establish inhumane conditions.

Can't disagree with that, but I'll add...The Chamber of Commerce good old boys already have their alien invaders working for them. These guys just want a law that makes what they are already illegally doing legal.

They are addicted to cheap illegal alien labor. The withdrawals will be painful as they find they have to pay Americans a decent wage.

If these derelicts can’t afford to hire Americans, they can’t afford to be in business...

Moderate course? OKay, let illegals self-deport instead of arrest and deportation. And give employers chance to fire their illegals before taking enforcement action. And all before January 20, 2017.

They don’t want to lose their cheap illegal labor force and might have to pay someone a decent wage. Wonder if it will be used as an excuse for rising food prices, construction costs etc.

Trump should tell the CofC that H-1Bs will be 1 million dollars per year per immigrant payable in cash in advance. And if the immigrant dies, quits, or returns they have to put out another 1 million for the replacement. And if the immigrant disappears, the company is liable for 1 million a year until the company finds and makes the immigrant available for deportation.

I’m all for doubling our manufacturing and other exports. But returned criminal illegals are not to be counted as “exports” in a balance of trade calculation. ;-)

The SOBs already have everyone habituated to being on call 24/7, working part time or working at a half dozen different places during the year, being at their beck and call lest they decide you're unreliable because you turned down a two day job as a warm body rather than as something you spent years learning, why shouldn't they expect Federal help with habituating you to the same wages they pay just across the border in Mexico?

Whatsamatta, think that isn't the American Dream? Too bad, they miss the good ole' days when they wouldn't risk a mule in a mine shaft until the miners had been in there for a day and survived to ensure mules didn't die from gas or cave ins.

Cutting immigration has to be combined with slashing welfare and all the government bennies for working age people and outlawing abortion. There is a demand for immigrants because we don’t have enough people who are motivated to work.

U.S. companies need to attract immigrants to grow

I dunno - they may be right.

America's next generation of employees are mostly over-educated, pussified, entitled and generally useless snowflake individuals.

LOL!!! They are still working on the meme that stopping illegal invaders is going to deter those who want to do it legally. They don’t want immigrants they want illegal invaders .....
