Why is it, regarding the immigration debate,... |
|
...that whenever I mention going after the employer, the RW'ers almost always accuse me of not wanting to go after the illegal immigrants themselves?
Anyone else experience this? I try to tell them that we need to stop the draw first to dry up these jobs. Then our tax dollars will be used much more efficiently.
They seem fixated on going after individual workers.
WTF? How is this efficient use of our tax dollars?

1. It's like busting the people with 1 ounce of marijuana... |

and ignoring the pushers.
Or putting out a fire with 1 drop of water at a time, and ignoring the firehose.

2. Racism. The workers are brown, therefore everything is entirely their fault. nm |

the executives led away in handcuffs as well as the illegals getting the boot. But I don't know if I'll ever get to see the former.
