Our economy would not implode. That's ridiculous. We would go back to paying what our grandparents paid for food as a percentage of our paycheck. California

California created this situation through lax enforcement of immigration laws. It is less cruel to strictly enforce the law, as this prevents people from becoming second class residents.
- meroes 6y agoFederal Gov't handles immigration laws and enforcement by and large.
- s1artibartfast 6y agoI don't agree with all enforcement methods, but lets not pretend that California doesn't try to actively impede federal enforcement of immigration laws. For example, they passed SB 54, which prevents California law officers and agencies from assisting or sharing any information on illegal immigrants with the feds.
- toast0 6y ago> California created this situation through lax enforcement of immigration laws. It's not for states to enforce federal immigration laws. If enforcement is lax, that's a failing of the federal government. It's also a failing of the federal government that the path to legal immigration for many people is file some paperwork, then wait 20+ years for your turn.
