    Not only do immigrants pay more taxes, but they contribute more to the overall economy. Adding the value of one’s labor to the whole is a positive.

    Meanwhile, extracting the value of others’ labor and using your ill-gotten wealth to fund systemic corruption diminishes and destabilizes the system as a whole.

    Deport billionaires, not workers.
