Texas has declared war on illegal immigration. In this video, we explain how.
#Texas #Immigration #America
Outsourcing work To outsiders while Giving food stamps to homegrown population is bound to have negative effectS.
Especially when you consider that many of those food stamps will be given to illegal immigrants from past decades and their offspring, you would have thought there were enough unemployed people to cover the missing illegals.
Texas' food stamp system is currently so backlogged it takes approximately 6 months to even get to the first review. this is technically way behind federal legal requirements.
perhaps they could, at this point of success in their border plan, divert a paltry million of their multibillion budget on it to taking care of their own. maybe even finally shore up that flimsy electrical grid thing before winter brings another in a growing pattern of deadly ice storms.
just spit balling as an actual Texan here.
Your argument makes sense,, therefore it will be thrown in the trash.
They can still cross at the official border crossings. Texas is only stopping them from crossing any where they want
Quite the success story indeed. Corporations would be happy to run their businesses with indentured slaves, and illegal immigrants are just a stone's throw away from that.
You bemoan the loss of income for corporations, I bemoan their unwillingness to increase pay to attract the necessary workers.
I love how supply and demand is praised when talking about it in the abstract but as soon as you try to apply it to the labor market it's somehow something to be ridiculed.
Yeah. Not to mention the Democrats desperate to legalise migrants who have come illegally and in some cases remain illegal and yet be permitted to vote in local elections.
Regardless of economics, it’s wrong in principle to reward blatant violations of the law.
Marrying outside of your own race used to be illegal. Does legality decide morality?
@@robertduluth8994 Legality does not equal morality. But immigration control is not immoral. Saying "hey, there's this process you must go through to immigrate into a country" is not immoral. In fact, it's unfair to those of us who went through this painful process for others to be rewarded for their unlawful actions.
So a crackdown on unpaid wages and tax avoidance?
@@coleli9018 isn’t it painful for victims of scammers to lose all of their money? So because it is painful i mist also lose all my money to make the victim feel better? So what if some immigrants are chumps and do it legally?
@@mrmr446 sure but what does that have to do with immigration?
So the argument " Let illegal immigrant in or your economy will suffer" really? As in really?
Worth mentioning that TX is majority hispanic state yet Abbot enjoys overwhelming support for his stance on immigration.
Laws are laws and should be followed, yet when they fail, as they so clearly do here, they need to be updated. The main reason new laws are introduced is almost exclusively because things on the ground change and the legal system needs to adjust before it breaks under the strain. The problem with DC claiming immigration rights is that they see none of the outcome of the decisions of lax border protection while southern states like TX see the brunt of them. In other words the system can break in the southern states while DC doesn't even notice.
Texas is plurality Hispanic
That's because those that immigrated legally want others to do the same! Makes sense!
It’s 40pc Hispanic so not a majority but still get your point
Que bueno! Ya que fue un estado robado a mi país. Me parece justo que las cosas regresen a donde pertenecen y los hispanos tienen todo el derecho de estar o no en Texas. Claro de manera legal... aunque Usa no la obtuvo tan legalmente.
Mexico has not any resposability to help Usa about the immigration. They want to get to Usa not to Mexico so... the problem is of Usa.
im not a trumper but the boarder does need to be closed its as simple as that I also agree on that goofy ass wall being built sadly
Just build the wall. The total cost was due to be something like 6 billion. A drop in the bucket in US budgets these days. What's the worst that could happen? It doesn't work? Then people could tell Trump that he was wrong.
If people were sure it wouldn't work then they'd just let it be built and use it against Trump. They're not doing that.
Texas is passing a 6 billion dollar just for Texas. I fail to see why the Feds can't do the same when they have the taxes.
No need to explain yourself this is a common sense issue that goes beyond just agreeing with Trump
The wall is an expensive project that likely isn't going to be super effective (to much space to properly keep people from bypassing it).
@@malcire Let's just build it anyway and then everyone can shut up about it.
The cost for it was around 6 billion. US spending bills are only in trillions now.
It would put the issue to bed. Either it will help or it won't. Though at least it would be done and if it's not effective then people can move on to something that is.
Though many of the people opposed to it don't convince me that it wouldn't work. Quite the opposite.
Too little too late biden's done especially after the debate
Trump 2024 MAGA!
Keep your hungry tired and poor . We have our own we need to help
And criminals
I agree with the laws Texas and Florida have done. While yes it’ll hurt economically in the short term the long term benefits while be worth it as illegals immigrants won’t be such a hassle and it’ll actually help the economy in the long run.
Who is taking the jobs left behind?
more like they will lose to other states with different policies in the long run its just a shift cuz blue states arent going to comply
Restricting cheap illegal labour is a good incentive to innovate. American farming is not really keeping up with productivity gains. Over here in the Netherlands we are seeing the slow roll out of harvesting robots, basically small threaded tanks with picking hands and cameras, trained on self learning algos what to pick.
That is exactly what I said.
yeah in the meantime they are eating the loses tho
Yeah and who has them? I doubt a small farm of only 200 acres does, it's probably a corporate mega farm with 200,000 acres.
netherland is full of mega farms and goverment funded farms how is this the same?Yes robots are the best solution and its something i am looking into getting in the future my self for my greenhouses but they are way too expensive and slow atm
The US is ahead of the Netherlands in robot technology, they already have a robot , siting at the White House , as president !
To be fair, the Jurrasica Park guy clearly spared a number of expenses.
Since he has one software engineer (who betrays him over pay that he is loudly complaining about) running the entire network and security system doesn't seem to have much in the way of redundancies for a power outage.
To illegal immigration , not immigration in general. I can see there is no bias at all here 😒
If Florida is struggling so much due to a lack of illegal immigrants, then why is everyone going there? The states that are losing the most in population are ones like NY and Cali, y'know, states that aren't having this "stopping illegal immigrants problem"
Because it doesn't have income tax, so people who have high paying remote jobs in CA or NY can easily go live in Florida for much cheaper!
@@amirhosseinhosseinzadeh7627 so that’s still a way for Florida to bring in money that those two states don’t have. Thanks for helping the point
the americans coming to Florida to dodge taxes have nothing to do with the illegal immigrants that harvest our food. Not being able to harvest food that gets exported to other states has no effect on the finance or tech employee who just came from NY. In other words, just because people are coming here doesn’t mean we don’t have problems.
@@bibby3027 You don’t absolutely need farmhands for all forms of Agriculture. Liberal people have been pushing for hanging gardens for ages, and that’s a small area with plenty of food growing. Also, not every state needs to grow plants and food when, if rich, you can just buy the food. Like what the Saudis do
@@Huminahumina465which isn't a current system that we have. And additionally is often costlier to use at scale.
And given various federal agriculture programs, it seems the US wants food to be cheap.
Also worth pointing out that we're fine with criticizing lack of facilities with comments like where are we going to put all these prisoners but it's never discussed that policing is largely a show of force with the average police department being completely unable to respond to a significant change in the criminal behaviors of the citizenry.
This from a channel that pointed out that Denmark is effectively keeping away immigrants by having slightly harsher laws than its neighbors.
Is the farm labor shortage in Florida comparable with asylum seekers crossing in the Southwest though? Recent waves of migrants who were allowed entry en-mass (the 10,000+ per day at times) have shifted demographically from historically majority latin-american to Indian, Chinese eastern european middleclass professionals. I doubt many of these new asylum seekers would accept strawberry picking positions. One driving factor in bringing these unprecedent amounts of migrants from all over the world is false narratives produced on social media (predominantly TikTok) that give these people false hopes to try the US border. Yes, they've been granted entry. But how many of them can actually sustain themselves once they get inside in the long term.
Exactly most are not willing to do labour work for income
Hey! Your previous intro was cool and unique.
God bless Texas 🇺🇸
That's funny
Texas used to be a different country and almost broke off from the US. dont use the american flag
God bless amarca and Texas
Immigration without assimilation is a problem. Since 1965 Hispanic, Asian, and African migrants have not assimilated and that has caused a myriad of issues as the country lacks cohesion (to any extent it can exist in a multiethnic society). On top of that crime from illegals is easy to battle, they can’t commit crimes if they are not here. Whatever happens next, expect a lot of movement: if Trump wins or Abbott is given more power deportations will surge.
immigration is the problem
What happened in 1965? Please define assimilation.
Define assimilation. It's not like immigrants will become a white guy eventually.
Bro my grandparents and my dad came here illegally. They vote Republican I vote libertarian. What you talking about assimilation? We can have different cultures and all want the government small to leave us alone.
Bros just yapping.
Omg the propaganda out of this channel. Just stop man
What propaganda? Please elaborate.
I'm not sure about calling it propaganda but I definitely think he's giving Abbott too much credit for passing a state level immigration law giving it has a very low likelihood of passing the federal courts.
they are anti immigrant but even they have to acknowledge the loses
Yeah stop propaganda
Disgusting.
The word missing from the title is "Illegal". Legal migration is unaffected.
Mexico has offered many times to hold criminals in prisons subsidized by the US at a much cheaper cost than housing them domestically...
The US has turned them down repeatedly, afraid that rights garaunteed as a US citizen would not be respected by Mexican authorities...
However, this concern should not be applied to the housing of illegal migrants...
A simple solution is a US, Mexican partnership to house illegal migrants...
WIN/WIN...
Someone should tell this guy that Roe V Wade was approved by the Supreme Court despite it being unconstitutional🤣
I don't understand how illegal immigrants would affect labour force, surely they can just approve more legal applications.
I wouldn't have thought this is about migration so much as being in control of it.
Can the US integrate the immigrants?
nope
The gender gap for people coming over is heavily male. And too many have come too fast.
The US has tried, but largely failed. Integration is primarily the burden of the immigrant (learn the language, adopt the customs, etc.), and recent waves of immigrants have increasingly refused to do so. It has reached a breaking point where American culture in some areas is breaking down. This is only possible because so many immigrants have come in so quickly, that they can form their own separate communities and survive that way.
No.
@@phoneluke1what an American response. In Europe social services guaranteed assimilation. Exclusion only breeds more exclusion. When people with immigrant backgrounds are denied opportunities, they will creat their own illegal opportunities.
Please do me a favor. Stop using "undocumented" and use the term illegal immigrant. They entered illegally without asking. Therefore illegal immigrant.
TSMC build a new chip plant in Texas, they are looking for skills, there are supposed to be many engineers, rocket scientists, computer experts among the illegal migrants, they cannot find any, and the jobs pay really good. No TSMC do not need any more sweepers, its automated and the mail room and food service are full.
That’s not true, it doesn’t restrict illegal immigrnats coming through ports of entries.
Can you please explain why Mark Reicher of the german sister channel was fired?
Will you leave too?
Of course companies would not be happy with losing labor that can't complain about pay or working conditions.
Hrmmm, florida economy seems to be doing just fine. A few industries got hit, but those industries are part of the problem.
hi i love your video's
Bexar county is pronounced Bear
What is the source for the chart at 11:20? For those of us who would like to know how those figures are calculated. Also, the chart doesn't seem to include public services such as hospital (especially ER) costs, school costs, police, firepersons, etc. The higher the population, the more these things cost. Also, if people are in the country illegally, how do they get a Social Security Card to get all these wonderful benefits?
04:57 - RIP Richard Attenborough 😔
What ever needs to happen to get them out of the US.
11:26 we shouldn’t have to pay one dollar for anybody that’s not a taxpayer in our country. If you don’t pay into the system, you don’t get anything.
As the video mentioned, most of the labor flight consists mostly of undocumented workers. The solution - shock, horror! - hire Americans instead. Since they'll be working legally, they'll also be paying taxes into state and federal coffers. And if the labor shortage continues, why not try something really out of the box like, you know, paying higher wages.
Good job Abbott
The constitution doesnt cover foreign nationals does it?
Very bizzare reasoning from the content creator; if the businesses you mentioned in Flordia cannot function without resorting to illegal labour (as it is illegal for those illegal immigration to work illegally), then either the said business itself is economically inviable, or that it actually has to pay a renumeration at market rate which would actually attract domestic or perhaps interstate labour, keeping wages artificially low hurts honest and law abiding folks, with the current unemployment rate, I doubt legal labour supply is an issue. It is only the mega corporations and big business owners that are benefited in the /illegal/ process.
You mean *illegal* immigration. Texas is among the most diverse states in the U.S., which is easily one of the most diverse countries.
Sensible immigration policies go hand in hand with a secure border … the problem in the US is both parties represent the extremes of the issue
Simple solution is what Australia has done. Any one cross the border illegally will never get the legal immigration status. Second introduce a point base system for immigration & for labor/Low skill jobs to get permits very easy (same what Middle East countries do) if some one from get enough points then they get legal immigrants.
florida businesses finding trouble finding workers i.e refusing to pay more for the poorest americans
Use Texas's gas and oil sectory to have a 5%tax to pay for security brought by securing the border
We shouldn't be relying on foreigners for labor. End of story.
If the economy needs to take a short-term hit, so be it. We'll be better for it in the long run.
Maybe, just maybe migration rates are receding because US didnt do much sanctions and interventions in Central and South America lately
No, the question is to YOU, we're waiting to hear your solution. It's easy to criticize other peoples efforts.
The Alien Acts comprised two separate acts: The Alien Friends Act, which empowers the president to deport any alien whom he considers dangerous; and the Alien Enemies Act, which allows the deportation of any alien who hailed from a country at war with the United States.
Bexar is pronounced “bear” or “behar”
Mmmm i have this really strong feeling when as an American some with a British accent is talking to me about my own Country. Its weird I wonder where it's coming from 🤔🤔🤔
I love the misinformation from Brits who do not live in the USA and obviously do not understand Laws
He might have made the order but like what the law says he doesn't enforce that either.
I suppose Jhonny Sins would have to start farming or construction now that immigrant workers are leaving
If they didn't have enough people to harvest them how are they going to throw them in the garbage you need someone to do that too why would they have someone pick them just to throw them away if they're already picked they're going to sell it or unless you were just being facetious, yes?
Because you are less tied by time and fragility to dispose of the produce.
I may need someone to pick tomatoes almost immediately when ripe. To toss it it just needs to go from point a to point b.
You can probably just handle it as part of the cleanup at the end of the season if you want.
@@malcire You're not wrong but I thought any food that wasn't going to be used was supposed to be donated to the needy & not just thrown away, right?
@@adcaptandumvulgus4252 nope. Distribution has costs and donating has liability. So most just gets tossed.
Couldn't some illegal immigrants be imported from other states to save the harvest?
I want the benefits of asylum, sneaking in soon. thanks taxpayers!!
We might have to use a Quotas system on Migration, doesn't matter which country you from, especially from UK Migration, just to be fair.
Besides people moving from NY and California r not going in there to pick strawberry/ produce and construct houses
Down in Texas where they dont take to Kindly to things
11:12 - Show it by country of origin and lega/illigal status.
Keep them out! A tip from a dutchman, you can't send them back afterwards....
Bexar = behr (or "bear" if you like), not becks-ar.
This was friggin hilarious.
"Losing illegal migrants meant 5% of the total available jobs are now back to the citizens"
"Hey, immigrants use substantially less than citizens for the welfare state."...."What do you mean they shouldn't be using any?"
11:20. Doesn't matter. Economy should be secondary to social unity
I am really excited for the elections. Either way it goes, it will be a shitshow and a lot of fun.
Is it legal to hire illegal immigrants in the us?
it isn't but fake IDs or stealing someone else's social security number and using it are commonplace. There is no incentive for anyone to check more thoroughly. plenty of people work off the books for cash as well.
Eine Obergrenze?? Horst Seehofer wäre stolz auf ihn! 😂
Also Governor Reynolds of Iowa did sign the immigration law SF 2340, but like Texas SB4, its stuck in courts. Oklahoma also took a similar step and Louisiana passed something recently but it won’t go into effect unless the Supreme Court approves the Texas law that began this
ohhh 2500 ppl has crossed guys stop.... is fxn riducolous
do theyy get a chucke cheese stamp to count??- and you just stop -bill maher
Exactly what were the years under Trump that illegal immigration soared?
Legal migrants and native born American can fill up those jobs vacated by illegal immigrants. All policies have consequences, it takes time for equilibrium to set in once the correct policy is set in place. I think most Americans understand the difference between legal and illegal immigrants. Biden's policy of legalizing these illegal immigrants is an insult to those legal immigrants who took the proper route and process and stayed in their country of origin while waiting for their immigration to become legal.
I'm not sure you guys really understand US politics
Cartel-owned slave labor is cheaper than paying a living wage to underprivileged citizens who are not in the workforce. It's a twofer of disgusting behavior that this channel would not support under any other circumstances.
Listening to Visual Politik discuss American politics is like listening to a virgin describe how sex feels.
Yhey may have watched lots of porn and have the base mechanics down but their frame of reference is scewed to the extremes and lacks any personal experience to filter it through.
Quite a biased take. Common sense missing. Go into why voters want this, rather than just say “politics”
You could have done so much better with your information. You showed a graph that says individual Americans draw more aid than illegals, but you didn't total the amount that is being paid out by the tax payers for the illegals. 300,000 in one month alone. That's 300k drawing the max on every benefit. I like the issues you try to tackle, but you can do a much better job at presenting the information for the purposes of the viewer to make up their own minds. In not against immigration. At the same time, I know that we can't afford the number of ppl coming. There are laws in place for a reason. If they want to support this type of immigration, then they need to pass laws, and make plans on how to support them. Personally, it seems like they are just trying to break the system. It is what it is. While I feel for every suffering human being, whether it's actually escaping a tyrannical political system, escaping hunger stricken poverty, or escaping violent cultures, in truth, I'm just passing thru this world.
Why do you not cover African politics. South Africa 🇿🇦 just is from elections and for the first time it finds itself in a coalition government. Was it covered? NO!
Naw to late baby 🫳🏽🗳️🔻
There's loads of people here now. With low skills. Why not open factories? Why still leave, and even open new factories in Asia?
First time in a long time people from both parties want a serious change or shut down at the border. See those recent actions of those immigrants who broke our laws and were so bold with it.. it all has actions
i mean you saying is 2500 robbers to few or to many 1 is to many
Are they going to finish Trumps wall off, it wasn't such a bad idea after all and possibly cheaper than illegal immigrants even short term.
These arguments are a bit weak! Picking fruits seems to be the strongest argument but the USA has a lot of mechanization Now pickers in many modern farms are a thing of the past one policy change such as the government reducing taxes or subsidizing such machines kills this argument. Killing the texas Economy really ???
A lot of farming isn't economic with mechanization. A number of fruits and other plants are either to hard to do with current tech or to fragile.
Standing plants like corn and wheat is the easiest.
Illegal immigrants are over 10% of the population of Harris and Dallas countries and over 7% in all the major counties. That is going to be a massive labor vacuum if they all disappear.
Berries and things that bruise easily would be all but impossible to pick with current automation. And the construction industry isn’t exactly a weak argument. Things need to be built and automation can’t do that
He isnt arguing a position he is reporting loses
Its not always about money... its about social cohesion
GOOD
if the u.s. invested that money in its own citizens instead of illegals then life for americans would be better.
Right! But Biden needed to replace Democrats (knowledgeable blacks) that were leaving the party with illegals that would be happy to vote as told.
👎👎👎 stop pls
Democrats: Just ignore how we practically have open borders and focus on how we say we don't have open borders.
I don't understand why there's so much resistance to US building some sort of barrier to mark it's territory / prevent illegal migration. Almost every single country with illegal migration problem has some sort of barrier in place. It's just a common sense thing, similar to requiring an ID to vote
The left blocks all border restrictions for the same reason. They don't like voter ID laws. They see these people as future democrat voters.
Yee haw
Good luck getting your lawn mowed or toilet cleaned Texas.
A lot of people clean their own toilets and mow their lawns. Only wealthy elites don't like doing normal house chores. The majority of Texas are middle class and below.
Illegal immigration that isn't reformed to allow a more strenuous pathway to those immigrating legally to the US, the land with the best aggregate conditions to increase someone's opportunities without any cronyism or partisanship, must be changed.
Before 50 years ago, you could make a case those arriving to the US via non-ports of entry without proper visa pathways were subject to either deportation or a much further path to prosperity by overcoming undocumented hurdles.
Plus the extreme difficulty in arriving here.
The demand since then has incredibly outstripped any Long Run Aggregaate Supply of labor.
This causes strains on all layers of government while be a main contribution to depressing wages.
And as circumstantial as New arrival figures of illegals is to muddle different policy effectiveness, keep in mind Trump had progress with Remain in Mexico along with maaking obstacles (a wall) where no ports of entry were to deter illegal and dangerous crossings facilitated by organized crime.
And that's the core of this. Biden reversed both Remain in Mexico and border wall approve & funded construction.
These by themselves don't solve immigration but certainly contributed to the solution.
And the bill the administration advocated for saying federal agencies can do something only after an average daily illegal crossing threshold was met helps nothing.
Especially when you can just begin border wall construction again, restart a Remain in Mexico policy (though you have to renegotiate it), and most importantly order & direct federal resources to detain, try, & deport in a speedy way illegals.
All things you can do.
When the federal government fails to act & actively encourages illegal crossings for political purposes of increasing census numbers for reapportionment of political districts, provide welfare benefits in exchange for voter loyalty, or other 200 year old tricks Democrats have used since Andrew Jackson it is clear as day citizens are harmed by wage theft and loss of opportunity.
Quote all economic measures together, not just top line figures.
States are enacting policy in the absence of federal enforcement. This is unprecedented bc since independence, strong border control was a hallmark of the one job the federal government must do.
What happens when they refuse to do so?
This is a novel and tragic situation that calls for federal agencies to do their job and quite whining about states doing something, anything really after the federal government has consistently failed to do so.
Federal immigration reform is still needed without any benchmark to first allow so many illegal crossing a day.
0 illegal crossings a day is the threshold, using federal agency administrative action enacted by officers can shorten deportation instead of waiting for judges solely to adjudicate every single case when the vast majority are straight forward, increase judge working hours / number of judges, and detain illegal immigrants until their hearings.
Put them to work for pennies on the dollar and allow some in to meet labor demand rather than depress labor with a longer but reasonable pathway to citizenship. Such as they pay higher local sales tax, higher income taxes, and become citizens after passing the citizenship tests ten years from crossing illegal and being granted a work visa to live and work but ensuring they pay the penalty for using informal and illegal means to the US compared with those who came legally.
Reform legal immigration to be far more efficient from what it is today and this goes a long way to stabilizing for the long term the problems of organized crime funneling in people for exploitation by gangs, employers, and politicians.

The loss numbers $36b is totally bs. Get real numbers.
I do get it why not let the prisoners? of sate harvest the strawberries 🍓
Because forced labor when implimented is often unpopular and first implementing it is more public and with more growing pains.
why would prisoners work for you lol the state that threw them in jail they hate you
I'm only hearing common sense policy
Commons sense is wrong any scientist will tell you
Abbott for President. 😁
Screw Biden
Screw Trump
We deserve better.
LIZ CHENEY FOR TEXAS GOVERNOR .
YES , CLOSE YOUR BORDERS .
HOW ABOUT A WELL GOVERNOR DOWN THERE LIKE LIZ CHENEY ?
SHE WOULD ACCEPT FEDERAL TROOPS TO HELP YOU DO THAT .....
