    Yeah, I did. I lived there for 20 years, that's a migrant city through and through.

    The difference now is that he has to pretend to care and do something about it, instead of what used to happen: the city prices them out, and they end up in Jersey or other States.

    Right, and the cost is blowing a growing hole in the budget.

    How many migrants are working in sweatshops that the mayor either owns in hole or part?

    What cost and what budget? If the issue here is that they're not contributing to the local economy, just let them work.

    The billions coming from the City's budget to shelter and provide other services for the migrants. They should be allowed to work while they wait for their political asylum cases, but I highly doubt it will offset the government costs to accommodate them even if they do work.

    Worked for New York for decades, why would it not work now?

    BTW, talking about that...

    Biden administration expands legal status and work permits to thousands of Venezuelan migrants

    Receiving a high influx of immigrants.

    Also, if you actually want to talk about the NY budget, it has nothing to do with migrants. Their projected deficit comes straight from poor tax receipts (more in-depth notes here)

    So would the deficit be larger or smaller if the city weren't paying billions to house and provide other services to a growing surge of undo ented migrants?

    Difficult for them to report on National news when Trump's dong is so far down their throat.
    No. You just don't want to know about anything. It would hurt your tender feelings.

    I'm sure the barbed wire put in at taxpayer waste will really stop the 1000 miles of Texas border.

    Lame strawman.

    Neither party gives a phuck about border security.
    They're all on the criminals payroll and/or are connected to the slave labor profits.

    Depends where the money is coming from for that. NY gets the second most federal aid in the nation, after California and before Texas.

    You would think that if that's such a drag on the State economy, it would show up in their budget deficit numbers.

    Elmo is mostly right about this one. A major driver of the illegal immigration problem is (and has been for decades) how difficult it is to actually come here legally.

    Where I disagree with the billionaire, however, is that everyone need not become "American". We can (and should) have an expanded legal resident status to enumerates certain rights, but does not include all the same rights as citizens.
