Very few voters want open borders. Talk about stupid.

july 18 2018 GOP legislators wrapped the unpopular “Abolish ICE!” campaign around House Democrats on Wednesday, by forcing a floor vote where 167 Democrats abstained or voted against a resolution praising the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency.
Democratic leaders protested and denounced the resolution, which was passed by 226 GOP votes. “This is the equivalent of fiddling while Rome is burning … It is a meaningless stunt,” said Democratic Rep. Ralph Nadler. “We have more important things to do.”

Democrats are under growing pressure from their progressive base to block ICE’s popular immigration reforms. But that is electoral poison, so Democratic leaders have been trying to shift attention back to higher priorities issues such as healthcare.

Only 18 Democrats voted for the GOP’s pro-enforcement resolution, while 34 Democrats voted against the resolution and 133 abstained by voting “present” in the hope of minimizing the blowback from ordinary voters or the progressive base.

25% of voters and 43% of Democrats support abolishing ICE, and you can bet they are concentrated in urban areas.

A minority of whites supported the Civil Rights Act at the time it was passed. A minority of Americans supported same-sex marriage when it was recognized as the law of the land. Sentiment on immigration is changing much more rapidly than on civil rights or same-sex marriage, as the working class is rapidly becoming more cosmopolitan, politically savvy, and socially homogeneous.

The working class sees their schools and hospitals and prisons and welfare system bankrupted by illegals. We're fast reaching the point where everyone hates illegals. THINK

You can bet most that voted yes think the only duty of ICE is rounding up illegal aliens for deportation.

No, the ruling class tries to get us to blame "illegals" for what capitalism does to our schools and hospitals, and you take their side.

So tell us. How do you justify illegal immigration? If these people are so valuable why don't they come here legally?. America has EXTREMELY low standards for legal immigration.

No, it doesn't. My friend, a citizen from birth, recently married an employed, educated, English-speaking Chinese citizen. And it will be years before she can even get a visa to visit the U.S.

It's not about how valuable people are to the ruling class and their government, it's about the working class having maximum ability to look around for jobs instead of being confined by a holdover of medieval guild restrictions on who can enter a given profession.

America allows BY FAR more legal immigration than any other country in the world. That's how we know america's standards for legal immigration are low.
