Somehow I think a few guys on here I put on ignore (the ones that tag each other) would get a thrill out of pushing those kids back in the water.
https://www.uschamber.com/workforce/understanding-americas-labor-shortage https://www.uschamber.com/workforce/the-states-suffering-most-from-the-labor-shortage?state= The US could ship them to all the states suffering from "severe labor shortage" as a temporary thing until the either get denied or admitted, per immigration law. As a matter of economic policy, it should be South Dakota, North Dakota, Wyoming, Utah, Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama.
There is a shortage of labor in Mn too. If government could get their act together and pass a comprehensive bill we could get them into our economy.
It’s MSNBC but does show with charts and stats rather then talking heads being snarky why we need more immigration.
If memory serves me correctly, I already explained it to you. That's the law passed by Congress and has been in the books for like 50 years. Search back the old posts where I posted it. Regardless of illegal crossing, overstaying visa, legal crossing, whatever, they're supposed to get processed for their asylum claims and then kept in federal temporary shelter until immigration court. The vast majority are deported immediately before that, but many stay and many are released to await court (that happens years down the road) because there is not enough temporary shelter. It's a terribly broken system, but the uninformed outrage needs to be redirected at Congress to update the law and fund the system, not keep it broken.
And I already explained to you that its a pointless waste of money taking them in and sending them back, its easier to you know... Enforce the border by these soldiers not allowing the people to pass... Like WTF, are you seriously telling me the USA has to receive every single person standing at the border? Like, just come on in for processing.
Yes, I think it's dumb too. You can shoot them, but many people would be against that and start a war. Change the law. I'm 100% for changing the law to say no asylum until we clear our backlogs. But then that law will also need funding. And then no asylum unless you're either making a reservation in the system or asking at a port of entry (only for Mexico), or making a reservation at Asylum centers near the border. The US is actually sending immigration officers to Panama to do something like this. And I'm still for a national bussing program to the middle of the country where the labor is needed, or to Canada if we don't need the labor.
I just wish politicians would stop b****ing about this and actually do something. We have the same issue no matter who is in the WH, but they can't seem to come together and at least fix part of this. I think they dont want to fix this so they can both moan and grain and promise THEY will do better and no one ever does..............what is the gop`s plan on this subject, oh wait there to busy passing bills to reduce everyone's salary to $1 and fighting each other in person and on the twitterverse
I doubt it. A physical border of over 2,000 miles crossing deserts, mountains and swamps will be very difficult to physically stop all crossings. That’s why the wall will never fully work and maintaining the US military along the border will be very expensive to maintain and isn’t prepared to do that sort of mission.
Something tells me it wouldn't be as easy as that, but I would agree it could be part of a solution, there are enough decent people on both sides to come together and figure this out. I have been voting for 20 years and EVERY election this is an issue, doesn't matter if its R or D in the WH when in reality they should be doing this for ALL Americans. Don't over promise and underperform, come up with some plan and pivot if what we're doing isn't working.
Again the solution to this issue is to bring our laws and immigration system more in line to with supply and demand regarding immigration. As we’ve seen with things like Prohibition or speeding anytime laws are vastly out of line with reality enforcement largely not only fails but often makes the situation worse.
