I'd start around 22-25 million.
Maybe more.
Get the criminals out first.
Then, the solo males.
Then, the solo females.
Then, the "families".
There's no one in this forum more "anti-immigrant" than I am.
But we may have to consider keeping at least some.
Reason why: they actually ARE doing jobs that it seems the white kids (and blacks) no longer want to do. Or are no longer being trained to do.
Such as... carpentry... roofing... masonry/foundations... interior drywalls... perhaps even some basic electrical (although I believe one must be a citizen to obtain licensing from the respective states).
For that reason, we may need some kind of ... ummm... "selection" process to separate those who are seen to be of use vis-a-vis "the rest" who should "go back". Just a thought...
Other than leftist talking points where are you getting your info?? At least around here, especially after the storms, there are roofing jobs, carpentry, drywallers, masonry etc. In fact they're busy enough that you have to wait a week or so out, still before they can come out and give you a quote. No, it isn't all ILLEGAL labor.
Anyone that shows up at my door needs to be able to converse in English and I'm not above calling a company or even asking before they send someone out if they are here LEGALLY.
The problem still exists that there are still unscrupulous companies that hire ILLEGALS -- that's what needs to come to a dead stop.
Stop the incentives and many will self deport.
As far as deporting criminals first and the rest in order on your list -- absolutely -- they are taking up precious tax dollars.
