I remember my entire life up before this Haitian thing, Republicans would always say "we like legal immigrants, we want fewer illegal immigrants." Even though they would actively try to reduce the number of new legal immigrants too. Now they're full on supporting deporting the legal immigrants too.
You'd think that would be alarming for anyone whose parents weren't born here, but it barely seems to register.
Lack of successful alternatives? It's easy to find flaws with capitalism but every other system has its share of problems too.
