We're saying we should just split the difference, and make immigration fucking simpler. Also, lol, immigrants are pretty much universally positive for the economy.

who most likely have no degrees, can't speak English, and have no special skills equals to economic positive?
Hey, immigrants are necessary for an economy, whether or not you want to accept it. They're more than willing to do some of the shittiest jobs that the typical America would scoff at.

I actually think skilled immigration is a larger factor at play. But that's just it, we don't need to agree as long as we concede immigration is beneficial. Immigrants boost nominal income, and skilled or not, that's what matters.
How is adding more people, who most likely have no degrees, can't speak English, and have no special skills equals to economic positive?

Let's totally add more economic devestationWhat part of "Huge drug wars" didn't get across? The mass graves part? Or the overall rampant amount of killing?The process of "legal immigration" to the United States is fucking ridiculous in the cost, length, and process - to the point where people are desperate to get here that they'll jump the border over the appalling and shitty conditions they face.Hey, immigrants are necessary for an economy, whether or not you want to accept it.

Agree to disagree.
Yeah, not our fucking problem that other countries have issues.
or people bitching that the British government reserves jobs to British citizens or citizens of the EU.

Quote from: Kinder on November 19, 2014, 02:41:23 PMYou know you could solve all of those problems and still have a fairly liberal immigration policy, right? We aren't defending open borders.
This only teaches illegals that coming here illegally means they will eventually be able to stay

Then work with the foreign government
Or, we can direct more funds to border security and adopt harsher personalities for those who break federal law

I'm sure they'll work just as well.Simply saying "We need to up border security!" is not going to fix the damn problem. The current process to actually immigrate here is broken.
