And they have on more than one occasion. It blows my mind that anyone could think of them as the fiscally responsible party. Then again, they also pretend to be the party of morality, so that all tracks.
Spitballin here. What if we completely removed border patrol from the border and never arrested a migrant again. Take all those agents. Their full time job now is surprise inspecting every employer in america at random. Mandatory fine of $40,000 per undocumented worker caught being employed. Also first offense we pull your business license for 30 days. Second offense shut you down for 90 days. Third offense liquidate your business forever. How would our "border crisis" look at that point? Think about it. Remember during the drug war when we arrested users and left dealers and smugglers alone? Me neither. This is more in line with what youd actually be seeing if politicians actually gave a rats ass about the BoRdEr cRiSIs
You’d destroy multiple industries that result on exploiting illegal migrants, and low cost labor from those with green cards. Hospitality, sanitation, meat packing, construction, agriculture, etc all would come up floaters
The whiplash from average Americans would be incredible. We’ve priced in domestic exploitation into several industries, and US consumers have come to demand it, and more.
come on in everybody. let's all bitch and moan about the shitty conservative republicans while never discussing what to do about it. it's like group therapy for limp-wristed liberals.
you are so right, we should all be a little more rational, and say... decapitate a family member on youtube.
edit: because someone in this thread is unironically using words like "sheeple" and "limp-wristed" I should clarify that my comment is obvious sarcasm.
that dude was an unhinged idiot and accomplished nothing for his cause. he's a portrait of a fragile mind that lashes out irrationally. if you want change, you get smart, tactical, and clandestine.
lol wtf are you supposed to do about it, try to smuggle a bomb into the RNC? attempt to assassinate conservative politicians? or do you think you can just "democracy" your way to getting rid of this cancer? the first two sound like something that'd backfire in plenty of ways, and the last one is a laughable suggestion at this point.
idk man. i guess you can just be a hopeless apathetic do-nothing that gets ground up by capitalism and leaves a hellscape dystopia for future generations to inherit.
edit: aw look, the liberal pansies are downvoting me because they can't deal with the reality of the situation. sorry cucks, evil wins when good people do nothing.
I mean, just use uBlock like a normal person. All these news sites are crawling with pop-ups and fly-in ads, now that the industry's revenue stream is predicated on getting confused elderly patrons to accidentally purchase a sybian.
Could it be because they’re not genuinely interested in governing?
The Border Crisis is predicated on US Senators shrugging their shoulders and insisting there's nothing to be done. This helps defer more power to the courts (where they were more than eager to govern by stacking the bench with far-right white nationalists) and to the border states (where guys like Abbot can poke a drowned kid with a stick under a giant "Mission Accomplished" banner to look tough on crime).
As soon as Trump is back in the White House, you can guarantee they'll produce all sorts of sadistic legislative reforms that they can ram through a flimsy Democrat opposition.
