Oh I agree to all of this. Add to the comical situation where you open the gate to 15-odd million illegals getting sudden visas, and now expecting real pay (not the $5 to $6 an hour they had been getting paid), and discovering that the ‘old’ bosses won’t hire them, and the majority have no real chance to now find work in a ‘downward’ spiral economy.
All of this increase business should have been a state by state affair, and not pushed as some national agenda.
The next four years will be rough, and a lot of people are not prepared for the mess approaching.
Amen........ right on
I would imagine a substantial number of illegals have no interest in amnesty, and even fewer will if there is a $15 federal minimum wage. They do fine, by their standards, selling their labor on the black market with no taxes and no minimum wage, and will do even better when that black market explodes due to the increased minimum wage. So they’re expected to give that up in exchange for what? To avoid the minor risk of being deported? And compete for $15/hour jobs when they have no skills and don’t speak English?
