It's inauguration eve!

Since tomorrow is a fed holiday & DJT's inauguration, the 17th was the last work day for the POTUS 46 political appointees.

Common scene as they left their work places.

That’s ridiculous. You think illegal migrants are not only not a drain on our resources, particularly available housing, but they are responsible for keeping food and housing prices low ? Willful ignorance.

Who do you think is picking crops, and who do you think is building houses? Maybe its different in Minnesota than in Missouri, but during my couple years framing houses it was very often Mexican crews who would roll up, put a roof on a house, and move on. It wasn't a bunch of white guys from St. Louis Park. Regarding farming, I recall Georgia and Alabama giving illegals the boot and the farmers getting socked because they couldn't find workers willing to work for the wages they could afford. I'd say its willful ignorance to think taking millions out of the workforce isn't going to cause some financial hardships.

But there illegals, if they want to come here and work, do it the right way then, problem solved
 
I got no problem with the immigrants who are actually working and being useful. I'm all in favor of legal work visas.
Its the millions that are providing nothing yet collecting all kinds of government freebies that need to go. The sooner the better.

And as far as tomorrow, I couldn't be happier to see Joe go. I'm withholding judgement on Trump until I see what he does. Hopeful, but skeptical. :rolleyes:
 
Yes, as with others, I have absolutely nothing against those that are in search of a better life, and all for proper, legal immigration. Citizenship, pay taxes, support your new country, not just suck from the hind tit with your hand out while demanding more and more while depleting resources.

My guess is Mexicans with green cards. You really think getting rid of the ones that are illegal is going to dramatically decrease available labor for crop picking ? Furthermore the fact that Mexicans are building houses now ought to **** you off. I guarantee they aren't union. I also guarantee you they aren't being paid fair wages. And I assure you without their brilliant house building skills there are still plenty of regular carpenters willing to work. I was a Union carpenter and a contractor for 25 years. If you support cheap immigrant labor turning a skilled trade into menial labor like they've done with roofing and siding you are definitely part of the problem.

I don't understand what the hell is wrong with you people. Perfectly willing to let immigrants ( legal or illegal seems to not be a distinction for you) take over the entire construction trade. One of the only ways a working class guy without a BA can make a decent living. You also seem to be perfectly willing to let China manufacture all the durable goods sold in this country while factories and manufacturing jobs disappear from this country. All so you can have cheap ****. I remember everyone in the trades or unions being perfectly willing to pay more for American made and union made goods. It's amazing to me that you would support dismantling the American working class by importing cheap labor and have the balls to imagine yourself being the moral one. If you want to impress me then start lobbying your democratic heroes to pass a law making it illegal to pay immigrants crap wages. I ain't afraid of competition, but it isn't competition when a Guatamalan lead man on a job makes half of what I am paying my cut man/low laborer. And that's what happens. I have witnessed it many times and even got into physical altercations with fat, POS white Mother F'ers who had the balls to walk over to the house I was working on to tell me all the virtues of exploiting some guatamalans, as they don't need a day off and will work for less than what a teenager working at a car wash makes.

You do NOT have the moral high ground. You are either to ignorant to realize that you aren't really doing those immigrants any favors ( same as democrats don't actually do anything for the black community) or you're just merely towing the party line. At any rate if your argument is that deporting illegal aliens will cause a housing shortage, or even a crop shortage you have some serious screws loose.
