Hell, we'll be in the great depression again, but at least those damn illegals won't be working either. Brilliant. Those who intentionally violate the law, need to be punished. As far as a 'Great Depression' goes .... where do you get your facts? Let me guess, the DEM talking points.
Let's try some facts on for size. Illegals compromise LESS than 3.7 % (three point seven percent) of the American labor force. That is hardly enough to trigger any depression, on any scale. These jobs are typically at the lower end of the wage scale.

You should be equiped with data before you flame someone who knows what they are talking about. More information may be found here.

I'm more concerned about the percent of welfare, free education, crime rates and free hospital visits that ultimately close hospitals down. Can you share those statistics?

Then you didn't read his post. The demographics don't lie. In 2 years we will see the largest exodus from the workforce in our history with the retirement of the Boomers. The taxpayer/tax recipient pyramid will invert and we had damn well better have some way to rectify it because the Boomers are going to be very militant about their retirement benefits and healthcare. It is way too late to breed our way out of this since the Boomers kids are even less likely to reproduce to replacement levels that their parents were. That is a fact.

Hodar, what percentage of American businesses do you wish to bankrupt? How many of the Fortune 500? What percentage of hotels, restaurants, construction companies do you want to bankrupt?
You're talking like an idiot. Intentionally fining American corporations into bankruptcy.
That's just too stupid to argue with.
