Good.
We have third-world Nationalists streaming through our porous border at an alarming rate, causing crimes and bringing down the GDP, taking welfare that shouldn't go to them and voting in our elections. Not only voting for more handouts, but also the politicians that offer them.
In fact, this has become such an issue that we have an entire political party pandering to people who aren't even here legally. Tricking everyday Americans into the idea that it is in their best interest to give away their future and the futures of their children so that they can pat themselves on the back for being "moral."
"Well, at least I'm not a Nazi," they'll say to themselves while they gaze out at the dystopia that they have created.
This is an issue that will rip apart the fabric of America, and absolutely deserves military funds, If not actual military action. Landmines, auto-turrets, snipers, a wall of soldiers, whatever you need to keep these economic drains out of our country.
We need tighter regulations around hiring too. Illegal immigrants shouldn't be able to get a job ANYWHERE in the US. Not picking celery or bagging groceries. NOTHING. Every dollar they send back home is another dollar that we could have used to make America a better place for Americans.
Long story short, America first. Keep your fighting age males in your own countries and try to make something of yourself/your country before you act like you're entitled to come live in the best country on Earth. You don't get to go from playing pickup basketball to the NBA just because you feel like you deserve better, you have to BE better.

They're trying to bring in new voters so they can get more electoral votes in blue states with the 2020 census. Also, hiring illegal immigrants is already illegal, but the $5000 fine is so low that some plantation owners will take the risk anyway.
If you know of any place which is hiring illegals, do your part and fill out the ICE tip form here: https://www.ice.gov/webform/hsi-tip-form#
If you know of any illegal with a criminal record, fill out the form or call ICE, but they're not going to do shit about someone without a record because they're so underfunded.

I'm torn between my libertarian, anti government meddling, side and my "get the fuck out of my country, you criminals," side.
On the one hand, we should have a comprehensive enough employment system that illegal immigrants simply cannot become employed. On the other hand, a system that comprehensive creates a huge bureaucratic strain that will undoubtedly require the government to meddle even more.

If voting for other people's money is LEGAL in the first place, it was just a matter of time when somebody would do it.
It is not only the niggers and spics doing it.
Half of white people are voting left too, precisely to get money they didnt earn. They WILLINGLY support the import of niggers because they know the niggers will help them vote left.
Leftism, which can be simplified down to "vote for me, then you can have his stuff", is nothing more than organized crime, and should be banned as a political option on a constitutional level.
You shouldnt be able to get into office by promising other peoples stuff being taken by force and redistributed to your own voters.
Theres a bug in the constitutional legal code and people are actively exploiting it. It makes no sense repeatedly going after the people exploiting it as long as you refuse fixing that damn 300 yr old bug.
DEMOCRACY = LEFTISM
FUCK LEFTISM
