Dakota on Nostr: “People crossing the border illegally” is not equal to “illegally importing ...

“People crossing the border illegally” is not equal to “illegally importing voters.” And creating a path to citizenship is more a discussion of degree, not a discussion of kind. As in, the discussion should be about what a valid path to citizenship is, not about whether there should be a path to citizenship in the first place. I agree democrats probably typically want an easier path to citizenship, but I think there are valid reasons to believe that philosophically other than just “we want more voters.” Keep in mind that “borders” and “citizenship” are constructs of the state.

Keep in mind also, that often times, it’s corporations and companies that are incentivized to hire cheap labor, so it could be construed as the state just giving the people (business owners) what they want; cheap labor. I don’t think it’s fair to just frame it as an evil democratic conspiracy.

To be clear. I consider myself a right leaning libertarian, a bitcoin maxi, and a believer in capitalist ideals. But this is just the way I think about things.
