The only thing people think of immigration is Home Depot and illegal Mexicans hanging around. |
I was commenting on the idea proposed in this thread, making it harder to send $$ to Mexico... his "the wall" idea is a bit less thought out... but still like I said, it's not that his ideas are perfect, but it's more that he acknowledges there is a problem, and intends to at least try do something about it...
legal immigration and semi-illegal (illegal only because of broke immigration process) is a completely different issue, not sure why you are mixing that issue up with true illegal immigration...
So how does Rubio or Hillary feel about a typical illegal immigrant? that is, some Mexican guy hears that in CA you can earn $15/hr (many times more than you can in Mexico), figures "I'll try my luck in the US," gets here illegally, gets a job... sends most of his income back to his family in Mexico...
How does Rubio or Hillary feel about situation like that? do they agree it's a problem? what are they proposing to solve this issue?
