  3. Trump to rescind DREAMer protections. All 11 million illegals deportable?

Reuters says Trump will likely rescind DACA, the policy that protects illegals brought here as children from deportation. 

If this is done, does this mean all 11 million illegals are now deportable? The article says DAPA, the policy that protects the illegal immigrant parents of US citizens, was rescinded earlier this year.

Deporting DREAMers would be extremely immoral. These are people who are culturally Americans in every way. They grew up here as children for God's sakes. Many probably don't even speak any language but English.

They are also the first generation of immigrants that tends to contribute more to the higher levels of a nation's economy. You'll be kicking out millions of potentially highly skilled and intelligent immigrants that would wind up being a huge positive to the economy in the long run. And that is aside from the morality issues you mentioned.

i wish the Democrats would propose a system where people can pay a fine to avoid deportation, and the payment can be made by any collective group of people on behalf of the immigrant being targeted

kind of like a GoFundMe for people

the primary argument against illegal immigrants is that they are an economic burden on society. If that is the case then there's a numerical price that can be established for these people, a price that can be paid.

Dems generally do push for that, GOP cries "AMNESTY" and we get no actual immigration reform.

A "majority" of them are not from south america. They are largely from Mexico or central america (El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras). (There of course are exceptions)

If you are talking about daca, alot of these people have little or no connection to those countries. Its not like those countries will subsidize them and help them out to get started either. It would literally be a waste for US and those countries, a lose-lose scenario.

It would pretty much only serve as a political message and not much else.

I think it's more that Trump changed his mind. Just like he did when he decided he didn't care if it was Repeal & Replace or just straight up Repeal, even though he PROMISED that he would not repeal until he got a replacement.

WRONG. For the first few months, he was heavily chastising them because they just wanted to straight repeal, and he said that no, they have to replace, first.

Throughout the summer, he said that he didn't care if it was repeal & replace or just plain repeal, that he would sign anything they placed on his desk without even reading it (not his exact words, but it's the only way to interpret them)

Yep. They are such valuable members of our society. While Trump is at it he needs to rescind the 'anchor baby' law. That way that'll give the pansy liberals one less reason to whine because the babies will be illegal just like the parents.

Majority of illegals are hispanic/from mexico/central/south america.

If they got their college educations and job prospects through affirmative action, that doesnt count. 

http://www.latimes.com/local/california/la-me-adv-asian-race-tutoring-20150222-story.html

Hispanics received a bonus of 185 points.


http://www.nationalreview.com/article/418530/what-ivy-league-affirmative-action-really-looks-inside-david-french

20-30% percentile lower than whites - yikes.

Funny how you single out 'rednecks' - which is what any good little leftist has to do. blame the evil white man! 

on deportation:
Black adults were the most supportive of deportation, at 66 percent



Of course, Dems just love blaming and comparing those evil 'rednecks' instead of realizing and acknowledging blacks probably suffer the most from illegal immigration. 

http://dailycaller.com/2016/06/24/poll-majority-of-blacks-whites-and-hispanics-in-san-diego-want-illegals-deported/


Just found this, kinda interesting: http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/voto-secreto-trump-most-hispanics-back-deportation-want-immigration-cap-cut-in-half/article/2606769

The Pulse Opinion Research survey found that 51 percent of Hispanics believe that there has been "too little" done to enforce immigration laws. What's more, by a margin of 49 percent to 36 percent, Hispanics "support a policy causing illegal immigrants to return home by enforcing the law."

The 14th amendment was created so the children of slaves freed after the Civil War would be citizens. The last time I checked these folks are coming here of their own free will. We don't owe them ANYTHING. So the sooner this loophole is closed the better. Because once the children are born here in this country the pansy liberals don't want to break up a family, so they all get a free pass then.

But I suppose folks would rather we have another situation like Typhoid Mary pop up where somebody with a communicable disease causes a pandemic in this country again. There's a reason why we used to filter immigrants through Ellis Island.

I would support imprisonment in centers that exclusively housed illegals with god awful conditions and perhaps the death penalty. Once proven that the individual does not have the legal right to be in the country (granting exceptions for reasonable periods of overstaying a visa and such), they should not be entitled to any due process protections. No appeals, no appointed lawyer, etc.

    You're fooling yourself if you think Pence will be any real improvement. All he is is a smarter Trump that puts a veneer of sanity over his s***ty policies, along with a nice unassuming smile.

    Pence has outright credited Rush Limbaugh for getting him interested to run for office, and is a fundamentalist that allowed an HIV outbreak Indiana to get bad all because he initially fought the ACA expanding coverage. He also had zero hesitation to visit a white community after a tornado, yet seemed apathetic about the lead crisis in East Chicago, which is majority poor blacks and a few poor whites. Not saying he shouldn't have shown up after a disaster, but it shows his priorities. 

    And don't forget that he willingly got on the Trump train, and is the a****** who initially revived TrumpCare.

    So just because Trump is a heinous POS does not mean you should go with the trend of normalizing GOP extremists, and rehabilitating their image.

    It's the law that Republicans fought to maintain ever since DACA, a reasonable and moral position, was proposed.

    Law isn't just fabricated out of thin air. It's created and maintained by people. Why is the GOP so hell bent on deporting people who are fundamentally American in every conceivable way?

    Keep in mind that the vast majority of DREAMers live in Democrat cities, and thus their "job stealing" effects are most impactful on Democrats, who are the least interested in deporting DREAMers. Why are Republicans who don't live in these Democrat cities so determined to control what happens in Democrat cities?

    Again, if the "economic burden" issue is the focal point, why can't the GOP simply propose to penalize these people with a fine that can be collectively paid for by any group of individuals? Why go to the most extreme position possible, deportation of culturally American people to foreign countries they have no connections to?

    There's plenty of middle ground to be found here, but the GOP isn't interested in finding it.

    i find it interesting that in other topics you talk about the failures of black American culture, but in this topic, you're the guy coming to their rescue by wanting to deport illegals. Is it possible you're just an opportunistic a****** who doesn't give two s***s about black people, but will gladly sow divisions between blacks and other minorities in order to pursue your s***ty, "Neo-Nazis are leftist" worldview?

    and did you ever get back to me on my question as to why your anti-immigrant population growth viewpoints aren't applied to black Americans?

    you know, since black Americans have higher crime rates, higher poverty rates, higher murder rates than every immigrant demographic we can think of?

    "Nonsense qualifier" that is actually 100% true? Children brought to America are culturally American, do you seriously deny that? What happened to you that you actually think deporting a person raised in America to a foreign country makes any moral sense? Punishment needs to fit a crime. Do you seriously think what you're proposing is proportional to the crime? Illegal immigration is not and will never be a serious crime. That's why there's 11 million illegals in America, because few people give a crap.

    As for tax drains, again, since there is a numerical cost, why isn't the GOP proposing to reduce the tax drain? Why isn't the GOP suggesting they pay a penalty for their tax effects, or just reduce taxation systems? Why is the GOP proposing to take people who grew up in America and forcefully deport them to countries they have no connection to? We're talking 600,000 people here.

    why isn't the GOP proposing to reduce the tax drain?


    ...they do propose cutting social programs and other things and then Dems cry that's racist. So Dems largely want them in the country and then put them on welfare (California offers benefits to illegals including healthcare, education, food stamps, etc.).

    Pretty funny trying to pin this on the GOP as not doing enough to cut costs.

    I never got to get around to arguing with you about taxes, so let's do that now. 

    Most Americans are tax drains. We have a VERY progressive taxation system where nearly all taxes are paid for by the rich. 

    http://www.urban.org/research/publication/social-security-and-medicare-lifetime-benefits-and-taxes

    Page 4 of this report shows how even in 2060, an "average" single male will pay $600k in taxes, but TAKE OUT $1.1 million dollars in benefits. And note that a MEDIAN single male, which is far more representative of American income due to massive income inequality in the US, would take far more money out of the system than this average male.

    And this study doesn't even take into account the huge military and eductional and other public services that are all almost entirely funded by the wealthy.

    The majority of Americans are tax drains.

    If you were arguing from a Libertarian viewpoint and suggesting that illegal immigrants AND low- and middle-class Americans were tax drains, therefore the entire tax system should be torn down, I'd at least see some consistency and principles coming from you. But you don't seem to care about the hundreds of millions of Americans who are tax drains, just these 11 million illegals. You don't seem to care about how huge numbers of black Americans are tax drains. You're just laser focused on these illegals. What gives?

    Because illegals arent supposed to be in the country. That's the relevant difference. Has nothing to do with race. Not a difficult concept to understand. I am opposed to illegal aliens from any country.

    If they wanted to reduce the tax drain of illegals, then why not just pass laws that refuse tax benefits to illegals? That's far more humane and pro-free market than taking 600,000 people who grew up in America and deporting them to foreign countries they have no connection to.

    And let's be honest here, the GOP is for less taxes than the Democrats, but they still support massive spending on Medicare/Social Security because it gets them votes.

    How do you resort to such a simplistic argument, though? Obviously, illegals aren't supposed to be here, per man-made law. And it's man-made law that determines that ANY of us are "supposed to be here". What stops you from working against black Americans, when every reason you've cited for being against illegals is that much more relevant to them?

    It's only man-made law, post Civil Rights, that allows people of different races to have sex legally. It was man-made law that prevented non-whites from becoming naturalized citizens for decades. Why do you stop your economic Darwinism ideology when it comes to black Americans, and only apply it to illegals? 

    By now you've surely realized that many people who are hostile to illegal immigrants for the economic reasons you just mentioned DO continue on and apply it to black Americans as well. For you, citizenship is just an automatic "pass"? Even though citizenship is granted by law which is 100% changeable?

    What won't work in California? Reducing the tax burden of illegals on the Californian system? Those benefits are paid for by the Democrat-controlled government and given to illegals, who most Democrats sympathize with. I see no reason to stop those benefits from being met out by the Democrat majority of California.

    As for the Federal benefits that go to illegals, the Federal government is controlled by the Republican party, ICE and DHS are controlled by the Republican party. The government of California has no power to stop the Feds from doing whatever they want here. If the GOP was serious about the tax burdens that illegals present, the GOP sure has a funny way of showing it. It is overwhelmingly instead talking about crime and "job stealing" instead.

    Again, "entitled to be in this country" is completely determined by law. When something is "so" in politics, it's because it was decided to be "so".

    Saying illegals who grew up in America should be deported to a foreign country to is a valid thing to do because the "law says so" is absurd when you're actively trying to maintain that law. 

    Tomorrow, we could all get together and say that any American which is a tax burden should be removed of US citizenship. That would be completely possible to do. So it's obviously completely possible to make sure people who grew up in America should not be deported.

    Here's what I'm asking you to do. Be consistent. Be coherent. Your economic "tax drain" argument isn't consistently applied. You've offered no reprieve to DREAMers who are NOT tax drains. There are DREAMers who have gone to college, who have Master's degrees, who run businesses. You were previously OK with the deportation of Roberto Baristain, the successful steak shop owner whose wife was a Trump supporter. He was NOT a tax drain, but put more money INTO the system than he took out, most likely, and yet your party still deported him, wrecking his family.

    And then you inconsistently apply this tax drain argument based on citizenship, when granting citizenship is itself totally determined by policy. You give a free pass to tens of millions of Americans who are much bigger tax drains than most illegal immigrant would be. Why stop there?

    So, just a reminder, state universities get a mixture of Federal and state funds. The state of California is very pro-Democrat and so it favored illegal immigrants with the university stuff you're talking about.

    You, as a right-winger, appear to feel some kind of ownership over the California public college system. That's not how things work. If you want to argue that your Federal tax dollars subsidize these illegals in California school systems, I'd then ask how much in Federal taxes do you even pay?

    so you think that the 14th amendment to the Constitution needs to be repealed? wow, you're a damn fine racist specimen.

    The 14th amendment was created so the children of slaves freed after the Civil War would be citizens. The last time I checked these folks are coming here of their own free will. We don't owe them ANYTHING. So the sooner this loophole is closed the better. Because once the children are born here in this country the pansy liberals don't want to break up a family, so they all get a free pass then.

    But I suppose folks would rather we have another situation like Typhoid Mary pop up where somebody with a communicable disease causes a pandemic in this country again. There's a reason why we used to filter immigrants through Ellis Island.

    yep, you're a bloody nutcase. the 14th amendment continues to protect racial minorities in this country, not just "illegal immigrants" that you so hate and probably know nothing about anyway. if you think that repealing it wouldn't be the first step on the road to states using their beloved "states' rights" to withhold citizenship from Americans, you're delusional. you also don't know anything about Typhoid Mary, who was a carrier of typhoid but didn't actually "cause an epidemic" by arriving and infecting everyone she ever met. and we used to "filtter immigrants through Ellis Island" because they'd arrive on the East Coast in ships after crossing the Atlantic Ocean. did you hear that nowadays you can just fly anywhere or drive a car to where you want to go?

    dont forget that birthright citizenship could easily go, too. It's tenuous from a constitutional view. 

    Anyway they broke the law whether they meant to or not. The compromise GOP would maybe agree to is mandatory military service for citizenship.


    "All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside."

    There's nothing "tenuous" about it, all persons born in the US are US citizens until someone amends the Constitution again.


    Unless they want to argue Hispanics aren't people, I could see them doing that.


    "subject to the jurisdiction thereof" is the key language. It's pretty clear from statements at the time that if someone is an alien and has a child in the US, that child isn't "subject to the jurisdiction" of the United States as a sovereign, but to the jurisdiction of the parents' home country. Now, you can of course change that statutorily, and we have. But the Constitution is not a strong protection for birthright citizenship.

    Their home countries could use then more than we can.

    The reason many of their parents came to the US is because of Mexico, Central America, and parts of South America being wrecked by US policy. Then the US steals their best and brightest for themselves for "muh optimized Keynesian economy" and leaves those countries to rot.

    The neoliberal protection of "illegal immigration" is just part of a cycle of imperialism and exploitation of the resources of poor countries. Stealing their minerals in the 1700s has turned into stealing their doctors and engineers in the 2010s.

    Prove it. At what age did most Dreamers enter the US? What is the 50 percentile age?

    All you are doing is justifying the theft of intelligent people from poor countries the US made poor.

    Let's say the US ended the drug war and cripple the cartels in Mexico, stabilizing it. How can Mexico grow when we incentivize taking those with the ability to improve Mexico out of the country?

    The US has 300 million people - we have enough great people in this country. We don't need to maximize 0.01% of the GDP by taking people out of countries that demonstrably need them more.

      I didn't say epidemic, I said PANdemic. Either way I was wrong in my usage of that word. However she DID cause sickness everywhere she worked.

      ...except for the countries they came from. surprise, they werent born here.


      I really want to see what age 50% of the Dreamers were above when they came to the US.

      I am guessing 11 or 12. Meaning they were mostly raised in their home countries.

      So you're stating that you don't know but you can emphatically say you know for sure.

      This is why I said I've indulged you enough btw.

      Even if they came here when they were 1, they should be subject to deportation. otherwise, we reward their parents' criminal behavior. 

      Also, let's stop calling them dreamers. we are giving these criminals too much credit. they are nightmares for the american taxpayer.


      I'm just using their terminology.

      The irony of DACA is that is supports imperialistic looting of the human resources of poor countries, making them poorer and making more people leave (while the CIA and drug war and other US policies wreck them further)

      Illegal aliens have helped destroy inner cities and lowered the standard of living for inner city residents who are mostly black. More crime, more crowded public schools, less welfare to spread around, wage stagnation, etc.

      Dems realized they have the black vote locked up and dont have to actually do anything for them, and see hispanics are a bigger voting block than blacks.

      I said I am guessing. You know, the opposite of emphatic, but then postmodernist liberals are not known for understanding simple dichomoties.

      I've looked for those statistics before, but most research into Dreamers is about racial (or gender) demographics. You seem emphatic that "the US is their home country", so I figured you had a stat to back that up.

      Their home countries could use then more than we can.

      The reason many of their parents came to the US is because of Mexico, Central America, and parts of South America being wrecked by US policy. Then the US steals their best and brightest for themselves for "muh optimized Keynesian economy" and leaves those countries to rot.

      The neoliberal protection of "illegal immigration" is just part of a cycle of imperialism and exploitation of the resources of poor countries. Stealing their minerals in the 1700s has turned into stealing their doctors and engineers in the 2010s.

      Mexico does not lack human resources. Moving to Mexico without a plan or any connections can be a disaster. The Mex government would not assist in getting them established. Speaking broken spanish wouldn't help either.

      Also, the fact that you think anyone would "willingly" NOT get a greencard......WOW.

      One of the only good decisions he has made. I've seen illegal immigrants get more attention at colleges than actual residents and that is mind boggling to me. There should not be so much incentive to put the lives of illegals over the lives of residents. Period.

      Mexico is a narcostate bordering on being a third world country. They need all the help they can get with how much the US has screwed up their government.

      The US can't keep looting these countries and expect them to ever grow and improve.

      And the US is the biggest client of that narco state. Deporting dreamers will not change that. The US didn't loot Mexico of human resources. Those people came here on their own.

      Its actually more honest of you to say you don't want illegals here and want them deported, period. Saying that deporting them helps Mexico is NOT an argument in good faith.

      -> spend 10 years in medical school
      -> run the risk of ruining your life marrying someone who couldn't be bothered to get proper immigration papers

      And that woman's name? Albert Einstein


      "bothered to Get proper immigration papers"

      You have no idea why DACA exists, do you?

      DREAMers CANNOT get proper immigration papers unless they self deport themselves to a foreign country (again, a country they have little to connection with), THEN they have to apply for entrance into the US and pray they get back into their home country: America.

      The whole point of DREAM was that it would allow these people to do what you're suggesting, but it was blocked by the Republican Party. This has been the case for the past 16 years since DREAM was introduced.

      Alot of you folks don't understand immigration.

      If anywhere in your record it indicates that you entered the country illegally.......that is a non starter for applying for a green card.

      Even if you left the US to try to re-enter legally and to apply for a green card...you would not be allowed in (if they know you once entered illegally), let alone would you have a chance to obtain a green card.

      I cant think of any other country that allows illegal aliens to attend their universities. About time the US catches up with the rest of the world.


      The kicker: they pay in-state tuition rates. We actually reward these criminals with more money and benefits than we do our own citizens. That's how ridiculously biased and leftist these institutions are.


      In-state tuition for DREAMers varies state-by-state. Arizona overturned it just recently. Again, California public schools are paid for by a mix of state and Federal taxes. The teachers of these schools are largely Democrats who sympathize with Dreamers, the voters of California sympathize with them. If you want to argue that the Republican Federal government should not pay for these students, that's fine with me, but arguing that Californians shouldn't be paying taxes for them makes no sense. Democratic decision making has already taken place, your side lost. 

      And you do realize that going to college is one of the best ways to get a higher paying job and that a high paying job is the best way to pay more INTO the tax system than one takes out, right?

      Again, progressive taxation system. Higher income people pay nearly all taxes in America. If you keep people in America with less than a college education, they're more likely to be an even bigger tax drain. 

      You don't seem to stick to any of your arguments. You oppose illegals for being tax drains, but offer no reprieve to illegals who are not tax drains. You even oppose illegals pursuing education that would make them non-tax drains.

      Seems easier to change that than pursuing the DREAMER Act.
