Not all migrant workers are here illegally. US law allows for some migrants to work seasonal farm work provided that they have a certificate of registration with the Dept. of Labor. In my opinion, if a US based company is not following the law and only hiring properly certified individuals then they should be the ones to pay a hefty fine and should face jail time if they repeatedly violate the law.

Have we fallen into a mesmerized state that makes us accept as inevitable that which is inferior or detrimental, as though having lost the will or the vision to demand that which is good?

Re: What happened to the immigration thread?
The GOP has proven that they have zero interest in correcting the #1 issue that they bitch about.
If immigration got fixed, they would only have low water volume showers and gas stoves to campaign on.
Oh, and electric boats, for some fucking reason.

This go here?
https://x.com/jamiedupree/status/181581 ... q_-8Yt1KMANew CBO report - increase in immigration (legal and illegal) would reduce the deficit by $897 billion over 10 years, mainly because immigrants pay taxes and spur economic growth.

Re: What happened to the immigration thread?
Meanwhile the Rs are running their same Tecmo-Bowl-sized playbook - the caravans are coming, but also the Ds are finally spending/“getting tough on the border” because it’s election season.Sparko wrote: ↑Thu Jul 25, 2024 9:27 pm Well, well:

Re: What happened to the immigration thread?
You would think if one was employed by higher education, one would support supporters of higher education. Things like student debt relief, enhanced grants in aid and employment outplacement. That is not 3D chess. And the border is more secure. The Trump migration is petering out.

I was listening to an NPR program yesterday called "The World", and they did a story from Venezuela. It was really sad to hear the details. They said 20% of the population have left the country.KUTradition wrote: ↑Fri Jul 26, 2024 7:40 am hmm, ya don’t say…

Re: What happened to the immigration thread?
What about it? Trump blocked the most comprehensive border bill in many years because he thought it would benefit him politically.

I’m old enough to remember when “build the wall” was considered xenophobic.
Re: What happened to the immigration thread?
Okay, then…if a Dem wasn’t effective enough in office to get a bill passed, instead loosing that battle to an opponent who isn’t even in office any more, then why does that Dem deserve another vote?
