Joe Biden said something to this effect the other day re: farm workers.

Yeah, for what kinds of jobs? Burger flippers, leaf blowers, etc. that don't pay a liveable wage and that the taxpayer has to subsidize their social costs?

Nothing wrong with being born in another country just as long as you come here legally.

Unemployment was between 3.5 - 4% from March 2018 through February 2020 - like Biden, two years.

Who is paying?
US taxpaying citizens, who are hit twice for both their state and for federal taxpayer funded freebies.

State? Feds?
Both.

Food stamps, Tanf, SSI, resettlement funding, welfare, medical, hospital, schooling, clothing, housing, transportation, phone/internet service, utility bill relief, etc. ...

Not all of it is cash money, some of it is cash but the rest comes in the form of free goods and services that costs the average US citizen a lot of $$ every month to have those things for themselves.

They're all here just being exploited temporarily to get Trump elected then they will be deported. Obama has one of the highest deportation numbers when he ran ICE. Even if Trump loses, Biden will have to deport before his own supporters vote off the democrats in congress.

Honest question. How many Swedes are coming across our southern border? Sweden is a first world country with a healthy economy. I believe a European immigrant is more likely to assimilate and learn English than a immigrant from Central America.
