    Legal immigrants who have something to offer and dont expect handouts can make a country great.

      Correct.

      In addition, illegal immigrants that spend their dollars on the local economy, pay taxes without taking from the social security pots and do low wage jobs locals don’t want to do also make a country great.

        If people receive low wages to do a job that no one wants to do, sorry but it isnt a great country.

          Basically the entire food industry from farm to table is exploited for their value and profit. Hell I worked for a cafe for the last 5 years with shit base pay because the money hungry owners don’t give a flying fuck if I can afford an apartment much less food or medicine. lol I didn’t even get an acknowledgement when I burned my arm on the oven and it left lasting marks. We need unions across sectors and industries for workers right but thats a slim chance of happening
