Actually, we benefit from the work of a lot of these "illegals." I can recognize that because I'm not consumed by irrational hate and fear.

Illegal workers steal wages from American workers and their families
They steal tax dollars from the Government meaning others have to pay more

They don't steal wages. They work hard! Make the green card path for hard working immigrants easier and they will pay taxes too.

They steal wages from American workers and their families. Has nothing to do with how hard or how little they work.
And they steal tax dollars from the Government meaning others have to pay more
And giving some illegals green cards would be rewarding their illegal activity. Which it is clear you want to do. You support them breaking the law

You might want to revisit the definition of the word stealing. Doing work and getting paid for it is not stealing. Is a band who plays an under the table gig stealing? How about a kid who cuts grass for money? How about a prostitute who doesn't pay taxes?
I'm not mad at hard working non violent people for breaking that specific law. I'm not consumed with irrational hate and fear. I know some people who have broken that law. They're good people.

No - you may want to revisit reading comprehension.
Illegals steal wages from American workers and their families.
There are a limited amount of jobs available and when an illegal takes say a construction job he displaces an American worker. So he is stealing money from that displaced American worker

Wrong again berry. Try applying the definition logically.
Stealing-the action or offense of taking another person's property without permission; theft.
The immigrants willingly do a job with the permission of their boss, and the boss willingly gives them the wages. The wages are the property of the boss, who with his own permission pays them to the immigrants, at which time they become property of the immigrants. In no way does that satisfy the definition of stealing. As for stealing jobs, I frequent a few establishments in Pittsburgh who hire these folks, and these places also hire American citizens, so that's another fallacy that you've regurgitated.
Furthermore, remember that according to many conservatives, "people don't want to work." In many instances, these immigrants are doing jobs that Americans don't want to do. If you don't want to support "illegal" immigration, you're going to have to give up eating meat, fruit, and vegetables. If you were able to wave a magic want and instantly deport all "illegal" aliens, this country would be in bad shape.
You also seem to be fond of Asian massage places, so there's another example of hypocrisy.

You’re kidding yourself if you think flooding the workforce with indigents willing to work for peanuts doesn’t hurt the US worker. You’re also promoting corporate slavery.

The use of illegal labor does have a negative impact on the U.S. worker.
But there's also a somewhat significant number of undocumented, non-employment authorized folks working in parts of the U.S. labor market where there's an actual shortage of interested workers. Especially in certain sectors of unskilled labor.
The reality is that there are costs and benefits from it. But this is a bipartisan issue, facilitated by bipartisan inaction and bipartisan negligence.
H-1B's aren't the issue. Family sponsorship is not the issue. The whole system is antiquated and out of step with how we kive and do business. We need legitimate, comprehensive immigration reform that focuses on all aspects of immigration. It need to be immigrant friendly, yet still firm. It needs to reward compliance without being too rigid and complicated.
I support a path to citizenship for DACA folks. I support providing a one-time no-fault pass to folks who are currently in the U.S. illegally, who willingly register and self-deport so they can pursue coming to the U.S. the right way.
I support permitting asylum applications at our consulates and embassies rather than the border, and growing the Dept of State workforce abroad rather than forcing this to occur at the border. Removing some of the third-party national restrictions to be seen by consular staff.

HDG, sounds like a good rational plan. One that's not based in irrational fear and/or hate, and it's clear to me that you're not using it as an excuse to express your disdain for those who are different than yourself.

You're putting words in my mouth that I haven't said. I've stuck with the theme that I think it's wrong to villainize the immigrants in the way that berry does. Nowhere have I said that flooding the workforce with new workers wouldn't drive down wages, nor have I said that I support corporate slavery. I support a living minimum wage, and as I've already stated, an easier path to legal worker status. Now let's not go off topic about minimum wage. I'm just stating my position in order to dispel what you've falsely attributed to me.

Exactly. Someone would have to be brain dead to believe otherwise.

NEW: Texas Congressman Rep Tony Gonzales says the President of Guatemala told him he knows of at least 80,000 predominantly Venezuelan nationals who are making their way to the U.S. border ahead of the drop of Title 42, and that nobody at the White House would take his calls.
Stop the invasion of the illegals by any means necessary

The catastrophe at the border is no accident.
It's by design.
Biden's border policies have been aimed at making the crisis worse.
"The Biden admin is now preparing a memo that will direct Customs and Border Protection to begin releasing migrants into the U.S without court dates or the ability to track them."
Pretty much the textbook definition of an open border.
