Also, no farmworkers should be allowed in. In fact, no one with a skills set lower than a nurse should be allowed to migrate unless they bring wealth with them. My Brother migrated to America 40 years ago and now a US citizen, my parents 32 years ago and took wealth with them. I migrated to Czech and took wealth and my company with me.

There's a very simple way to curb illegal migration. Heavy fines on the employers. Trump fining employers illegal immigrants. The problem is he avoided answering this question. So we don't know his position.

I agree 100% with his soundbite on bringing jobs back to America. He's spot on that China, India, Cambodia, Vietnam, etc. Are getting richer, and not by rice exports. They're getting richer from getting manufacturing and selling to the West. Bring those jobs back.

And suck on the fact that goods will cost more to give fellow countrymen a job at a decent wage.

The cost of oranges and OJ will skyrocket.
While I agree illegals sending money home should be stopped and it would be easy to do, I think people who are here legally and who obtain their money legally should be allowed to do whatever they want with it. If that means sending it to people in another country so be it.
