    You are out of your mind. The economy does NOT depend on illegal   
    workers. Non citizens can obtain a work visa legally which tracks them   
    and allows the tax system to tax appropriately. Sending them back is   
    the territory of ICE.   
      
    Oh I also like the way you worked 'reductive' into the conversation.   
    I've been trying to find a way to use that one too, good job!

    I don't see any problem with Mexican citizens working with a visa and   
    sending dollars home. The more the merrier!
