    I’ve asked MAGoos hundreds of times why it isn’t cheaper and faster to arrest the people who hire illegals. Some of the mental gymnastics are quite amusing.

      I often just reply, “Who is hiring the illegals?”

      And I usually get silence.

      It’s not about illegal immigration. It’s about racism.

      They’re always so “pay what the market will bear” and “you buying that product enables them” and whatever else whenever someone asks for a living wage or criticizes capitalism while owning an iPhone. They do understand how these things work and they choose to be hateful.

      It’s either common sense when the real answer is complicated but shows they’re wrong or a complicated system when the obvious answer doesn’t agree with them.
