Is this the stupidest idea in American history?

I’m sure you’ve got the numbers to demonstrate that.

An person making 10.00/hr. pays about $4,800 in taxes per year. Then, of course, come the deductions so most look for a check back from the government.

Cost of an ER visit? Multiple since they use that as a doctor’s office? Cost if diagnostics tests are required? Hospitalization? Add in family members, minor children who don’t work?

You are familiar with the costs of hospitals.

What do you think is the net?

I don’t even have to do the math.

Great. Now I’ve got to find a filter I didn’t know existed and have no idea how it got turned on.

I wasn’t talking about you. It’s not always about you.

I know. I quote lots of posts I’m not responding to also. It’s the torture of being thinking men that we face.

Keith Ellison wants open borders.

Keith Ellison was photographed with a tee shirt saying in Spanish “I don’t believe in borders”. However when asked his office would not clarify. So yeah, maybe so. Not confirmed one way or the other.

Kinda speaks for itself.

I am not going to vote for Keith Ellison. Period.

He is Ilhan Omar’s idol.

I’m definitely not voting for her either. Never.

It is a mistake to underestimate these women.

Meh. Maybe you’re right but I’m highly skeptical. I see them as the outer fringe. Let’s see if they gain any prominence or political power in the next handful of years before concerning ourselves with their reach.

You don’t have to, and you didn’t… bravo!

That’s an awful lot of assumptions you made there… based on what exactly? I don’t know how the illegal population is in your area, but where I’m at, they go out of their way to avoid ER visits… and reporting crimes, and signing up for any sort of assistance (public or private). When the schools shut down, we immediately began preparing and offering meals for these families because we knew they would be in need. At first, no one came… we quickly realized because we had asked for names and addresses so we could deliver portions of the meals. Didn’t even occur to us they were frightened by that. So, we stripped that requirement, and suddenly the meals were moving. These families are very afraid of having their info fall in the wrong hands and being reported for deportation. Fortunately, where I live, we value and treasure this community, illegal or not, but it’s a struggle to get them to accept that message.

If they came here legally, they wouldn’t have to be afraid.

I think that would be a plus for them, don’t you?

Sure… if they had the luxury of time. Sometimes they don’t

Not my problem. Nor should it be the problem of this country. It’s their problem and they need to solve it in their own country.

I clicked a link to a post in my dead zone. It brought my access back.

Thanks for the timely help.

I miss the days of compassionate conservatism…

Weird how you guys so easily threw it out the window for a cult of personality.

I don’t have a problem with the law.

If you do, work to change it.

if you have anything to dispute the brietbart article go ahead

I read the plan on clueless Joe’s website…it was like an Obama speech. Flowery but meaningless. His “plan” can be interpreted lots of different ways.

The way it will he interpreted by the extremists who will be running that senile old man if he’s elected is open borders no more ICE come on in the American taxpayer is ready to pay for you…

Which folk we have quite a few of out here on the Left Coast. On the other hand we also have a lot of Black folk. The block I live on is comprised of about 70% black families, 28% Hispanic families, with My wife, son and myself and a family a few houses away way making up the 2% percent of White people. Never a hint of racial tension in the 18 years we’ve lived here. A friendly hood.
