The Department of Homeland Security announced that the Biden administration leveraged sweeping executive power to waive 26 federal laws in South Texas.
It’s a huge problem in the towns and cities immediately on the other side of the border and that’s the primary concern here. Imagine where you live and 671 unhoused and unfed human beings walked into your town every. single. day. No local municipality in the world has the resources to deal with that. It has to be the federal government.
That’s not to suggest that building walls in the wilderness is an effective intervention. But it is an unfortunately popular one. It must be coupled with federal programs to receive, house, and find work for the people arriving at areas not blocked by a wall.
But the people living in those border towns don’t deserve to be burdened with a problem created by federal government policies. The feds need to fix the problem.
This is an extremely complex issue, but let’s just consider that number for a minute.
That’s about 671 people every day. About 28 each hour. Damn.
Oh god oh fuck people moving across an imaginary line
Those bastards can’t speak American, and they’re taking all those jobs away that I’d never even consider doing!
Reserve army of labor. Don’t try to solve the problem by ridiculing it. Offer a better solution.
People are allowed to make jokes, especially about things they can’t control directly. Read the room.
You missed mine.
Whoops! Sorry.
Text can be tricky sometimes. Without tone of voice or body language, sometimes I don’t catch stuff.
you are missing a key word, recorded. got to assume some arent counted which makes that number even higher, holy feck.
I’m just gonna leave it as a quote from the article. If the wording is messed up, it’s their problem. Good point, though!
So?
