Trump supporters love memes because they are almost universally misleading and lack any nuance.
Bring back Glass Steagall
lol--this has nothing to do with keeping immigrants here or allowing more to enter. As far as I can tell, everyone agrees they need to be sent back. The only issue is whether we should be forcibly taking breastfeeding babies from their Moms and flying them 1000 miles away to a detention center.
Google "Flores Agreement". When a 15-year old girl was held in general detention and strip searched, the ACLU and the Catholic "Everybody's leaving us, bring us more Latins" Church sued sued sued.

What's amazing is that the original event which triggered the litigation happened 33 years ago. And the fucking litigation is still fucking pending in fucking 2018. Our court system is so fucking efficient....
Nary a peep about doing anything to the management, company involved or the like.
You can't blame someone for trying to better their life.

And those employees will be on the next coyte transport back unless things have dramatically changed in their home countries. You can't blame someone for trying to better their life.
Where does it stop? I mean what laws it's OK to violate if one is simply "trying to better his life"?
And these home countries will never get better if everyone flees to the US.
If you're a Libertarian, you already know the answer. Traveling to a different country for work is not a crime, it doesn't infringe on anyone else's right to live their lives.
Agreed. But many of these people come from countries the CIA, or our war on drugs, has had a direct had in de-stabilizing.
It was Marxism that fucked up South and Central America (and Africa, the Middle East and much of the 3rd World) - not America trying to stop it.
The cost of illegal aliens to every California taxpaying household is well-established and is far from trivial.

Most of those countries, including Venezuela are dictatorships. The de-stabilization that put those dictators in power was often triggered by US agents.
Sorry man, still think Marxism was the biggest destabilizer in South/Central America.
But I'd argue that a large part of the countries, had they been left alone, would not have gravitated towards socialist/dictator regimes. Because of US involvement in destabilizing the region, and resentment toward our country, people were more susceptible to the communist message, and the socialist countries who offered aid, rather than interference.
You have it backwards: US involvement was in response and to counter USSR's push into Latin America.
I've never heard of this(Russia attempting to move in)
Again, I'm asking for examination of root cause. If socialism was organically adapted in these countries, fine. But I'd argue that a large part of the countries, had they been left alone, would not have gravitated towards socialist/dictator regimes.
Dismissing something that USSR actually proclaimed as their goal and made a huge progress towards is just denying reality.
The one country where one could argue the US really "meddled" with is Chile
You haven't provided any evidence other than your word. I've provided evidence to support my viewpoint. Unless your God, gonna need more than "Because I say so."
do you really think America was morally or strategically wrong to try and combat Communism's spread in South/Central America?
Your own link admits that the CIA was RESPONDING to various Marxist and Communist guerrilla groups and organizations. What more evidence do you need?
Just like we did in SE Asia, and look how well those economies are doing!
Yes, SK does well only because NK was beaten back. Without US intervention it would be same shit but across the whole Korean Peninsula.
Hassan_Rouhani saysYes, SK does well only because NK was beaten back. Without US intervention it would be same shit but across the whole Korean Peninsula.
And if the US bailed on South Korea in less than 7 years like we bailed in Iraq - the entire Korean peninsula would be a famine shit-show like North Korea. Because all Totalitarian Communist regimes end in misery.
Ditto if we abandoned Taiwan, Philippines, Japan.......
