    According to you they dont pay taxes? Would be good to have a source for that claim, because taxes are paid directly or indirectly in most things done in your daily life ie, having a car, having a house, buying foods or services. So, if your problem is that despite paying taxes they are stressing too much the house supply and government funded services you will be in favour of kicking out of the country people that is legal but have too many kids? I dont think many white christian families are going to like that.

        I don’t see anywhere that anybody said that. Most of them seem to want more legal immigration, because if you make legal immigration easier, fewer people will do it though other channels.

        The harmful conduct we should actually be focusing on here is companies exploiting/abusing undocumented workers and violating labor laws whose immigration status chills them from reporting. Those companies are the real criminals here. The employees responsible, or who should’ve known, should see the inside of a jail cell, and fines should be an existential threat to the business if they do this with any regularity.

        If it’s easier to immigrate legally, and employers believe hiring undocumented workers will cost them way more than they stand to save, we’ll see a very different dynamic.
