Well wages going up are not going to make lazy disinterested hipsters and ghetto bangers and so on interested in physical labor. It just isn’t.
As for border and self deport, I’m all in favor of removing the incentives to stay and on securing the border. Stop the hand outs. Deport criminals in custody. And let e-verify work it’s way through the system and cleanse it over time.
In the meantime, there will be problems in the economy if we don’t stop incentivizing LEGAL CITIZENS from sitting on their asses. That is a related issue, and few are willing to admit it.
So you and I agree on 95% of this.
There is a price point for every single job in the entire world. If I advertize for roofers at 8/hr I will get no one to respond . If I advertize at 60/hr I will get 100's of applicants. The roofing contractor has to find the correct price point which is a number between 8 and 60. That is his job. Not undercutting the indigenous labor force by introducing scabs from the third world into the equation. That is simple corruption and lawlessness. Again I have to explain markets and economics to you.

Cut off the welfare. They can sink or swim on their own.
