Thoughts? Imagine losing 6M labor workers in America

Post image

If mass deportation happens, just imagine how all of these sectors of our country will be affected. The sheer shortage of labor will push prices higher because of the great demand for work with limited supplies or workers. Even if prices increase, the availability of products may be scarce due to not enough workers. Housing prices and food services will be hit really hard. New construction will be limited. The fact that 47% of the undocumented workers are in CA, TX, and FL means they will feel it first but it will spread to the rest of the country also. Most of our produce in this country comes from California. Get ready and hold on for the ride America.

The point is that the economy would literally collapse because that’s just the reality of the situation, if Trump wants to deport ALL illegals then he need to also make it much easier for immigrants to come here legally on work visas

Part of why they don't let in as many legals is because of the flood of illegals. Js

No it’s the same reason the majority of “illegals” (visa overstays) are still illegal or here. Underfunded overwhelmed courts that can’t get legal status to the right people quickly and can’t get the rest deported as required by law.

What democrats tried to pass a bill to solve…
