Back during Eisenhower’s Operation Wetback, several uncles were Border Patrol “River Riders”. That Operation Wetback worked.
Now, like then, cut off the jobs and the freebies and they’ll stay home. THEN we have a problem!! who is going to do the work?? We can’t go back to the 50’s. For sure holder’s people won’t, they are on the gravey train.
Indeed, over time an economic co-dependence has developed, and that’s why it will be very messy to reform. The first step must be to secure the border with barriers where they make sense, and boots on the ground along with aerial assets. It will be expensive and take time to implement.
Why don’t you trust the economic system to work? If no one will do the job, the price the employers pay for those jobs will increase until people are enticed to work or someone will come up with a device that will do the work without people.
If the cost becomes so high no customer will pay, then that work will no longer need to be done.
All of you who say we have to have illegals here are actually saying you are willing to give up American sovereignty for a buck. This is the United States a sovereign nation and we have laws that need to be enforced and obeyed.
Prez Ike and his Operation Wetback deported about 5 million illegals, to clear the way for returning military servicemen to have jobs.
If it was possible to deport millions in the 1950s, then why does everyone say it’s now impossible to deport the probable 25 million illegals now in this country? They keep saying we can’t deport so many, but they never explain why. .....Of course cutting off employment will tend to lead to self-deportation, but that is a drop in the bucket at this time. .....The Dems in charge of the Obama Regime cater to illegals because they want their votes and don’t care about the future of America.
