It’s also the only thing keeping the US above the replacement rate of children, because the working conditions in the US are garbage, so having multiple kids is unsustainable, so those large-family mentalities are often destroyed. Mexicans often are viewed with the “oppressed” perspective, and the majority of them are actually conservative, so their political beliefs aren’t really gonna shift the nation left-wards. They also don’t scapegoat white people for everything, that’s really not the most common goal as much as republican scapegoating (far more common). The fact is that democrats don’t really benefit much from Mexicans crossing the border, they can’t vote when they’re illegally here, they’re often conservative, their family size decreases due to working conditions here, there’s no sizable benefits of this in general. At the very least, they’re more conservative for those who migrate here legally, and democrats have almost unanimously agreed that illegal immigration is a problem that needs fixing right now, so I have a high level of doubt that they’re intending to replace their own race for votes when most of them are white themselves. What I’ve seen from democrats on immigration is mostly a misguided attempt to help immigrants, not to make them replace us.

It's not because the working conditions in the United States are garbage, it's because the Federal Government plunders so much money from average Americans that they have to work eight hours a day, five days a week, for SIX MONTHS just to collect the money they'll pay in taxes for ONE YEAR. So half their lives, they are slaving for the sake of an unaccountable government. Think about how much the average American is taxed – you wake up in the morning and turn on your lights – electricity is taxed. You turn up the thermostat – energy taxes. You go to use water,… Read more

The federal government creates negligible “plunder” in comparison to surplus wealth theft, nearly in several times the amount expended in taxes, even after necessary funding for the enterprise. You are also aware that much of the funding goes directly back to the upper class in the form of corporate subsidies to further enrich the very people stealing on a daily basis, right? If your paycheck came back and it showed you the total you provided as a worker, what you got, how much taxes were, and how much goes directly to the hands of the capitalist, people would be rioting for money… Read more
That's absurd – the average person would save well over 13,000 dollars a year, per person, meaning the family of four would save fifty-two thousand dollars per year, if not for the ludicrous taxes imposed on the working class, whereas certain people being extremely rich does not harm anyone in the slightest. Imagine how well we'd be doing if the average family of four made 52 thousand more dollars per year – we'd have the greatest boom in history, instantly. That's what would happen if we abolished or even relaxed these taxes.

Surplus value theft is of a far higher amount, often directly embezzled by the very rich people you claim are harmless. They gain that much money off of the workers in one way or another, since no one EARNS obscene amounts of wealth, even from rich people getting much richer with high stock increase, because the workers are the ones that make it possible for that company to grow in the first place, and that money is part of company assets derived directly from the workers themselves. Taxation is negligible in comparison, and would be completely obsolete if the workers got the money they were creating, and the my democratically controlled the workplace.
