Just a little factoid here .... 800,000 Dreamers are less than 0.24% of US population.

Currently unemployment is over 7.1 million (August 2017).

If every single dreamer turned a job over to someone on the unemployment rolls, it would cause unemployment to drop to ~3.8%* . IF. Which we know cannot possibly happen. Because jobs have things like required skills, experience, etc.

Consider this alternative solution:

As of December, the number of total nonfarm jobs stands 9,265,000 higher than when Obama first took office.

So, bring back Obama, and expect 11x more benefit than expelling Dreamers.





*(remember, not everyone in general population seeks employment, so this is not 3.8% of 323 million)

it's not about jobs, it's about not wanting more "brown people" in the country.

4. We should be deporting our nightmares, not dreamers.

I don't suppose there's any nation on earth we could hornswoggle into taking in our deplorable white supremacists, is there?

6. The unemployment rate for white people in August was 3.9 percent so I'm guessing they're talking

crap or you heard wrong.
