Americans hold complex views on what should happen to undocumented immigrants. As President-elect Donald Trump prepares to ramp up mass deportations, about three-quarters of U.S. adults say they are at least somewhat concerned about the number of immigrants entering the country illegally, and a majority support enforcing mass deportation.
I think we should let them all stay and arrest their human traffickers, let them get new illegal jobs, then arrest more people who like hiring illegals so they can pay them less and subject them to abusive work environments while decreasing healthy employment opportunities for citizens. It’s wild to me that people are blaming illegal workers when they’re a) the ones doing the most right-WORK, and b) have the least control over the situation especially compared to their employers who are often responsible for them arriving and staying illegally in the first place, and sometimes even by FORCE. There shouldn’t be any illegal work, just illegal hiring. They can stay and get another job, then when that next person abuses them they just report them to the tipline and send them to prison for 10 years too. Huge billboards everywhere,“are you being abused while working without a visa? We’ll send them to prison and let you go! Call ___ ___ ____!”
