How Illegal Immigrants Say They Plan to Support Themselves in America
The Daily Signal ^ | August 13, 2021 | Kaylee Greenlee, the Daily Caller

McALLEN, Texas—In interviews last weekend, some illegal immigrants said they plan on working when they settle in the interior of the United States. Others said they want to study here first so they can support their families.

A migrant from Honduras told The Daily Caller News Foundation that he worked dishwashing and other restaurant jobs in Guatemala before crossing through Mexico and eventually entering the U.S. unlawfully near La Joya, Texas. He and another Honduran man said last Saturday night that they plan to study so they can better support themselves and their families once they’re settled in the U.S.

“You need to suffer for it. You need to sweat for it,” a man from Ecuador said shortly after illegally entering the U.S. near Hidalgo Point of Entry in southern Texas late Saturday night. “You need to start from zero to show that the situation costs.”

A Honduran, Javier, told The Daily Caller News Foundation that he plans to “work now with the help of God and give the best to my baby and wife.” He said he worked carpentry jobs in Guatemala and Mexico to fund his trip north to the U.S.

“I know how to do everything,” a woman from El Salvador said, adding that she expects to have more opportunities now that she’s in the U.S., wanting to seek asylum through the legal process while working to support herself.

How about the US Setup mandatory schools for all illegals entering the US. Force them all to get a High School Diploma if they do not have one. Then force them into a Trade or an Associate level program. Once they complete this, send them back to Mexico to help their own country. This would certainly be cheaper then what we do now and would be a win win for everyone. Only problem is it stops the influx of future Democratic voters and prevents the elimination of the White Race in the USA.

By the way, when the minorities are the majority, everyone will be ruled over by White Elites.

If a concerted effort were made to turn these invaders into conservative Christian voters who love this country, Democrats would hasten to build the wall.

They will survive by stealing money from the American tax payer.

One reason I decided not to retire in Texas (after carefully weighing the pros and cons) is my assessment that illegal aliens will have a significant negative impact on the state’s property taxes over the next decade or so...

The second generation may become net taxpayers and not tax takers, but it will be too late for me....

“People of color make up 95% of Texas’ population growth, and cities and suburbs are booming”

We’re doomed.

So how does a woman with kids, can’t speak English, expect to get a job and have child care expenses as well as putting a roof over her family. Only with Welfare subsidizing her.

“...wanting to seek asylum through the legal process while working to support herself.”

and therein lies the problem. There is a long established legal process in which a foreigner goes to the embassy or closest consulate and applies for legal residence in the US. It takes several years but it is sure and it is legal.

I don’t know about now but, there once was a quota established by Congress for each continent for the permanent residents, the “green cards.” So what’s wrong doing it the legal way???

Bad news for everyone. Once demographic critical mass is reached it’ll be virtually impossible for the Republicans to even come close to a president win again.

No not hopeful at all. It is just another subterfuge to mask the real issue. Here's an analogy. Let's say a baker hates your guts. He bakes you a beautiful, delicious cake, but places a sinister, vile substance within. You consume it and die.

These stories of humble, hard working and sincere individuals coming to this country illegally is just a misdirection to conceal the true intent, that is, to place within the mix, the vile substance. The inability to regulate who, when and how many are allowed to enter the country is a dire threat to the safety and security of the nation, just as leaving your front door open at night would compromise your own personal safety and security.

If there are hard working, sincere individuals who dream of being an American.. .fine. .let them get in line and come here legally.

Or China. Pretended to be our friend in the 1980s, said come on over, you can make your goods here, with cheap employees and no worries about environmental regulations. We have a huge market of a billion people just waiting to buy your products.

It was all a con.
