By this great economic logic, and it was made famous by Henry Ford, we should all build Mercedes Benzes and be paid enough to buy one. Viola! We will all be rich.

Which is why all the “sanctuary city” and “undocumented worker” bloviating by the “compassionate Left” is just pure BS. The ONLY reason to keep illegals flowing in is to abuse them for their cheap labor and lack of legal protections. The Leftist absurers don’t want to have to follow the same labor laws they pass for you and me.

Come on. Get real. The garment industry takes advantage of all workers. It is notorious for that. Buy made in the USA.

It’s the same in Germany. Mustapha can sit around and collect $40,000 a year, tax free, in “earned benefits” simply for being on German soil.

A German engineering school graduate can earn $40,000 with a 70% tax rate.

BUT HEY. FREE HEALTHCARE!!!
