Migrants create jobs because they have to eat, which means they have to buy stuff from the supermarket. They have to drive a car, which means they have to go to the gas station, Rojas explains. So in the same way that a person from Indiana doesnt steal a job from a native of Chicago, a person from Mexico doesnt steal a job from a person in California.What a ****ind idiot. There is zero correlation between population and per-capita GDP. If what Rojas says is true then India would be the most prosperous country in the world and an small island nation Great Britain would not have been the economic engine of the world for 150 years.

Vox is apparently fascist, like Twitter [except for Trump tweets].

Leon Fresco, an immigration attorney who was the primary drafter of the 2013 Gang of Eight immigration bill and served as deputy assistant attorney general for the Office of Immigration Litigation under President Obama, has spent much of the Trump years trying to get a very tiny change to immigration law: a tweak to make it easier for Chinese and Indian immigrants to get green cards (they are currently limited by arbitrary per-country caps). The idea has massive bipartisan support, with senators from Tom Cotton on the right to Kamala Harris on the left signing on and 329 co-sponsors in the House (more than three-quarters of the Houses members).I guess we can thank Fresco for providing the opening for Trumnp to become POTUS and destroy Rubio as a national figure. Let us remove the cap on two countries with 2.6 billion people.

These lying dog columnists. Diane Feinstein authored a bill that would effectively open our borders because there would be no law enforcement allowed on the border. EVERY Democrat Senator signed onto this bill. This came up in the successful effort to defeat Claire McCaskill of MO, because Josh Hawley kept pointing out that she had signed onto this bill.

Let Fabio Rojas invite a dozen MS-13 members to live in his home. Raise Fabio’s taxes to 99% to pay for them while we’re at it.

If an illegal takes..

Yay more Global Community.
Yay One World Order.
Yay One World Religion.
Yay Peace in Our Time.
Will that be right hand? Or forehead?
You do want to be able to buy and sell, don’t you citizen?
Then you can buy from eBay and Amazon for convenient shopping!
The New Messiah says all religions go to the same God and that the world must get rid of Israel and those remaining pesky Jooooos.
Ignore that Bible Prophecy stuff. It’s all nonsense.
Oh, and ignore those Two Witnesses. They’ll be dead in a street in Jerusalem soon when the New Messiah kills them. You can look on their dead bodies and send gifts to your friends and family. Just turn on the Jerusalem Live Cam or watch CNN or MSNBC.
CNN and MSNBC will have live analysis of these two religious nuts.
Hey, are those bodies moving? No way! They’ve been dead for 3-1/2 days.......

That old saying WAS true.

Never saw it proven so well before.

The Communists are further reproached for desiring to abolish countries and nationality.
Manifesto, chapter 2
This is called
argumentum verbosium. Repeating the Big Lie does not make it true; it only makes the lie bigger.

All those who think we should have open borders and continue the birthright citizenship loophole farce should leave America now and never return. Not even for a 3 minute visit.

Only libertarians can make a credible argument for this. If there’s nothing to be gained from the state by crossing the border, then yeah why not? But the left is just crazy, you can’t have a welfare state and open borders. Not possible.
