Trump crafting plan to slash legal immigration - Page 2

I'm glad republicans are showing their true racist colors. They are doing everything to hold on to a white supremacist America.

I would actual;ove love for this law to pass for 2 very different reasons.

I believe the the whole family sponsorship/lottery visa system is bullshit. Greencards should go to those that earn them and are not a risk for welfare.

I also believe many industries would collapse without enough guest workers and the Republican Party would look like fools.

They don't understand that they cannot stop a majority hispanic population from happening. No matter what they racist do.

I would actually favor a merit based immigration system in the US that is similiar to the ones in Australia and Canada but that's just my two cents.

This country is too racist for such system. Lawmakers can easily pass the laws to have such system, but the US has people like cruz, sessions, and the like.

I honestly don't see how race plays a part to why a meirt based immigration system hasn't been implemented yet in the US. Sessions has even advocated for such a reform like this one despite his anti-amnesty stance.

He even blamed the current system we have now for bringing in "people with no valuable skills" into this country through family petitions and lottery visas. So, it's kind of the oppisite.

Visa lottery I don't mind. They are targeting it for a different reason that everyone fails to see: DV lottery was originally 55k/yr, then 5k/yr were relegated to NACARA program. Can't kill NACARA without severe backlash so they just want DV out and whoops NACARA is dead. Same reason why El Salvadoreans are on TPS since the 90s and Trump is tiptoeing around DACA wondering how to kill the damn thing.

But really the whole immigration system is complete horseshit. Inadmissibilities for bullshit reasons, needing relatives in US to get waivers.

Then you have the whole employment based system which is divided into 4 main groups.
1. The .01% that could toss a dart at a map and live there.
2. The "workers" that are lined up for the job and sponsorship, be it a software engineer or a janitor.
3. The odd none-of-the-above group (religious minister, SIJ, military translators, and 60 others).
4. The filthy rich that will just invest in a Regional Center to buy PR for half a million.

Question, so after DACA is put on hold by the courts. How soon can we expect for ICE to start apprehending dreamers, unlikely that it will be en mass, but people will start getting caught.

They will have all our info, so we are the easiest targets, plus, they know that our parents are likely illegal as well.

That scenario isn't going to happen!

I said it is unlikely that it will be "targeted", but you know ICE will be faithfully deporting individuals, whether they are dreamers or not.

Say anybody gets caught, you don't think they will be deported? That is just wishful thinking, once DACA is removed, there is nothing that prevents anyone from being deported.

What makes you think that the court process will be so fast? Besides we don't know what's going to happen! Let's not start dreaming up nightmare scenarios. I was freaking out when Trump won , but for whatever reason I feel very calm about this . We shall overcome this obstacle as well.
