It can be. My impression is that your hatred for illegal immigrants trumps (pun intended) any empathy for the situation in which they find themselves. It doesn't matter why they came - it doesn't matter what role they currently play - it doesn't matter what life they've lived since arriving - or how they contribute to their communities - your answer is the same for all situations: ship them out! So yes - you appear to lack any degree of empathy or charity. You have one response for illegal immigration that is to be applied to all situations: get them out.
So you just jump over some significant words like "often" and "in some states" and so forth. I have a business. I have no business license. There is no requirement for one for what I do. That is the case for many kinds of business - and varies widely state-to-state. I'm not operating illegally - according to my lawyer.
People without legal residency can obtain an individual taxpayer identification number and an employer identification number, enabling them to open bank accounts and operate businesses among other things.
That needs to stop.
I've not suggested favoring one group over another. Those coming legally have an easy path. Those already here illegally have an arduous path that will provide something to the country (e.g., extensive community service, etc.), and those who come illegally in the future are summarily deported unless they applied for asylum. And it doesn't matter to me if you use liberal or conservative terms, so I'm not sure what that part is all about.
They are predictors of future behavior in the absence of change. That is what is being suggested: change.
No - I did not. I said nothing about "propping up economies." That is a tactic that has been tried and has failed repeatedly.
