The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

I don't think anyone has an appetite for black vans showing up at random places to haul people off. That's not what's going to happen.

Deportations will happen as a result of 2 actions:
1. Contact via the criminal justice system or existing deportation orders
For this one, they are 1.6 million people who are here illegally and who have committed crimes. Then there are others who are under active deportation orders. If the democrats want to defend these people and claim that they have a right to stay, I welcome it. Let that dead-end party meet its fate the old-fashioned way and go down in a blaze of In this house we Believe No Human Is Illegal virtue signaling.

2. Workplace enforcement
Joe Biden pretty much zero'd out workplace enforcement during his entire term. As in...they don't even bother to check who's hiring who. Back in the day on PA, the libs would scream about "corporations using low wage labor to steal jobs from Americans", so this is another area the democrats are likely to make a spectacle over. Good. Let them do it.

There's nothing wrong with a guest worker or seasonal worker program or H1-Bs. They fill voids and provide opportunity. LEGALLY.

Legally. That's the word the democrats really hate.
