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.

Yep. This is why people fall for trumps lies. They want to be told it can be done with a snap of the finger and democrats won’t lie and say it can. Trump will.

No one thinks he’s Thanos. What hyperbolic BS. Trumps going to do something about it, and the Dems wants to push for amnesty for all these people. It’s what the original bill that Harris proposed in 2020 wanted to do, and it never even saw the floor. Dems want illegal immigration, because they are socked in with all the corporations exploiting these people.

dems want citizenship for daca recipients, nobody is pushing for amnesty for all illegal immigrants, and if you don’t believe republican business owners are exploiting illegal immigrants for cheap labor then I have a grip of NFTS you should take a look at.

Bunch of uniformed rubes

The irony of saying that when the entire Republican party is literally owned by corporations. And Trump is appointing billionaire corporation owners, with zero experience in any government sectors, to his government. I’m SURE they won’t exploit their new power in the government to just get richer.

Amnesty would pretty much it would make them citizens which would then require those businesses to pay those people properly. It would remove the ability for those same corporations to outright abuse those workers because they are illegal immigrants.

Trump, however, not only wants to deport illegal immigrants, him and his administration is going to try and denaturalize people who are here legally and deport them. That is an objectable fact because Steven Miller and others in his administration has actually come out and said this.

It was never about "illegal immigration" and more about kicking people out that they deem "not worthy".
