You’re right but rational thinking goes out the window when it comes to illegals.
Most of them are doing JOBS AMERICANS WON’T DO. And that’s the truth. Texas is full of them and they are doing hard labor, yardwork, construction. The women work as maids and as care givers for older people. I like Mexicans.
I think we should concentrate on closing the border before anything else. Then we can make a rational decision about what to do about those already here.
The first step would be to deport any illegal who commits a crime; any illegal who’s busted with drugs, even minor ones, and any illegal who gets a DWI etc. That should be a quick automatic process without a lot of red tape.
They are depriving Americans of jobs.
