Following immigration politics and drama. Democrats love illegal immigrants. Republicans love no immigrants. Nobody gives shìt about legal immigrants. Illegal immigrants: undocumented, illegal border crossing, most with at least one police record, unschooled, low wage labor, depends on government benefits, and possibly homeless. Legal immigrants: documented, the legal port of entry, clean background check, relatively high wage earner, boost US economy, generate more jobs, well schooled, own their insurance and dues, and rarely anyone is homeless. US Govt major annual expenses are Social Security > Medicare > Medicaid > interest on US Debt > Military spending > Health & Human Services > Education > Housing & Urban Development > Overseas Contingency Operations and Wars > Natural Disaster Relief for Hurricanes & Wildfires > Saved for future if any left. I can still understand the national security and defense-related expenses but the illegal-immigrant expense burden is clearly visible as a major expense burden on all the taxpayers. Why not simply deport them and be more strict on the border patrolling? Border trespassing is part of the national security concern. Why the fcuk US Govt cares more about illegal immigrants and sees legal immigrants as a threat!!!!
Which of those expenses are an “illegal immigration burden” ?
Apparently this guy thinks that illegal immigrants collect social security
Google search and you would know. You asking the question "Which of those..." clearly shows you neither follow annual budget nor understands it.
Yet still you get your GC faster if you arrive illegally on a dingy..
Yes. An example from one such law firm - https://www.alllaw.com/articles/nolo/us-immigration/legal-options-undocumented-illegal-immigrant-stay.html and there are more ways around it by different law firms and case by case basis.
So if you’ve been here for 10 years and have a relative who is a citizen is basically the only way
Lol. You can think that these expenses are the cost you pay for the opportunity you have. Problem solved.
Yes. And people coming legally, abiding law are treated badly. California gives license to illegal for 4 years and legal immigrants get driving license only for D/S and renewing it is difficult if visa approval is pending. That doesn't make any sense!
There's a lot to unpack there, so I'm gonna burn the whole suitcase. Here's an alternate question: Why not create an Ellis Island situation?
It doesn't stop illegal immigrants.
Logic is straight and simple. Hard working legal immigrants will not depend on Democrats and will not vote for Democrats. Left hates you guys. Yes, they make illegals vote.
How can they vote without an SSN?
Temporary SSN. Immigration law firms can help workaround paperwork to help get one. You would know only if you talk to them.
Don’t forget that CA is working on providing free healthcare for illegal immigrants at the cost of American citizens and legal residents. https://www.sacbee.com/news/politics-government/capitol-alert/article231310348.html If we are going to further tax or get money from the population, why not use that money to help American citizens and legal residents FIRST? I feel that Democrats and extreme left wings in CA is doing this to get more votes and piss of the feds. We should start taxing state employees more money... https://www.sfchronicle.com/politics/article/Gavin-Newsom-reports-nearly-1-3-million-in-2016-12849486.php
So there will be more illegal-immigrant expense burden on taxpayers.
Yes. The democrats by and large in CA are catering to the Latino population and want to find a way to legalize the illegal population so they can continue to be in office. The history of offering more resources, white cards, etc is a small step to legalize them. It’s not a popular opinion but max your tech TC and live outside of CA in about 25 yrs
No, I am not. I know active asylum and refugee statuses are different stories and those are legal.
Correct, illegal immigrants need more help and therefore garnish more attention and sympathy from both political parties. Everyone loves dreamers, no one has ever heard of "h1b" unless it was someone who lost a job to one.
😂 nailed it

What happens when most of your team is Indian?
Illegal immigrants are a social and economic concern because they are in the country and we need to find a workable ethical solution to them. Can't simply murder or imprison them as freely while maintaining the image of a shining city on a hill. Legal immigration from non European countries IS a threat, as new immigrants are much harder to suppress and given time they could dilute the political hegemony of the white caste.
> dilute the political hegemony of the white cast Good
Insecure citizens scared of educated legal immigrants - fairly evident in the original comment. While totally blind on the implementation of deportation of illegal immigrants.
