So you're admitting immigration makes things more expensive?

u/Reelwizard 8h ago

The fact that you’re so cooked that “invades” and “immigrates” are synonyms in your mind is just wild.

Considering there are millions of illegal immigrants in the USA and that's what people are complaining about. It is the same thing? What are you talking about?

It’s expensive to live here because the billionaires have monopolized everything. Capitalism doesn’t exist anymore. It’s Crony capitalism.

It's pretty cheap to live in America compared to salaries.

Then why are half of Americans living pay check to paycheck?

u/Matthewlang1994 4h ago

Because they're bad with money?

u/Melodic-Trouble-5421 2h ago

That’s not always true. Some people are working 3 jobs to get by.

I love when poor people bring up boot licking because that's how you know they lost the argument. Here let me make you feel better. It's everyone else's fault you're poor, it's the boomers, it's your parents, it's the governments, it's the corporations.

It has nothing to do with your low intelligence, laziness, lack of discipline, lack of drive, or any personal decision you make. All the people that make 100k are lying, lucky, or bootlickers!

Hope that makes you feel better, enjoy your mom's basement!

Less than .5% of people don't dictate if it's cheap or expensive. Our truck drivers make more than doctors in every country in the world besides 10ish. You can make 70k here pretty easy even if you're uneducated..

There are apparently millions of racist shitbags in the US. People are complaining about them too. Time to pack your bags.

The vast majority of people aren’t complaining about illegal immigrants. That’s not even what the post is about. The post is about a conservative shitheel claiming poverty is a personal problem. They’re also not “an invading force” no matter how much you desperately want them to be. Their refugees.

u/Matthewlang1994 7h ago

A shitty president was voted in largely because of illegal immigration? Poverty is a personal problem in 90% of cases especially in America. I never mentioned invading. The first guy is the one claiming illegal immigration is invading. The 1st is essentially saying if a large amount of Americans illegally immigrated to Mexico it would make things more expensive. Thus immigration makes things more expensive. He understands why people have issues with mass illegal immigration. Are you finally started to understand? Has it finally clicked for you?

You are so dumb lol, the joke wasn't even complicated and yet...

Why not consider that those immigrants pay taxes, don’t get any benefit from said taxes, and when they’re deported, so is that line of tax revenue for the country. Also these people not being in our communities means they can’t spend money at our local businesses. Then there’s the fact that farming and home construction both rely heavily on being able to pay their workers less than legal citizens, which means deporting those people will make the cost of our food and houses go up. People living together in a community is not the problem driving unaffordability. That might be better witnessed from corporations constantly hoarding money, not paying taxes, lobbying to not change minimum wage for 18 years, getting billionaire chumps like Trump elected so they can do quid pro quos and ballroom deals (typed backroom, but ballroom auto correct was too good).

You sound like an uneducated child arguing that a poor Mexican or Venezuelan migrant had any chance of making my life more expensive.

u/Matthewlang1994 7h ago

So your argument is if I pay taxes and accept slavery like wages I'm free to move where ever I want?

I never once mentioned Mexico or Venezuela.. really weird and racist of you to say.

1

u/tubadude123 7h ago

What the hell are you on, I am arguing the opposite. The wages are slave like because the CORPORATIONS make it that way, not the immigrants. Corporations are the ones making life unlivable due to expenses.

Weird to call me racist for bringing up the people who are the ones doing the immigrating to the U.S. and you’re the one who wants to deport them, not me.

1

u/Matthewlang1994 7h ago

Okay and I'm saying you're justifying allowing them to stay because they pay taxes and work for less than favorable conditions meaning it benefits large corporations and the government?

So in that argument you feel it would be okay for me to illegally move to whatever country I want, as long as I do those two things?

It is extremely racist to call illegal immigrants Mexican and Venezuelan...? I know illegal immigrants from all over the world. I'm confused on what makes you think it's only those two that are here illegally?

u/tubadude123 7h ago

So disingenuous, I picked a couple countries as examples and you’re completely twisting it. Kind of hilarious you’re painting me as racist for this honestly. I couldn’t care less what color someone’s skin is. I would love for all people to be paid fairly for their work but that would require massive corporations to act for the greater good, to pay their employees, and sacrifice raw profits quarter on quarter. Not going to happen by choice. So they’ve spent the last 40-50 years rigging the system so they don’t have to pay a fair share of taxes and can sit on their mountains of wealth with impunity.

If you want to fix affordability, deportation is not the way. Getting big money out of our politics and taxing the corporations and the billionaires fairly is.

u/Matthewlang1994 7h ago

It's just weird to mention two specific groups of people.. also billionaires and corps pay like 70% of all taxes so weird to support it when immigrants pay very few taxes but get angry about it when billionaires pay basically all the taxes.

I agree that would help affordability, but not allowing illegal immigrants shouldn't depend on affordability.. if hundreds thousands of rich Americans moved to Mexico it'd probably help stimulate the economy. It doesn't mean it's an overall benefit..
