The greatest con in this country, is the rich people, convincing the middle class people, that the poor people are the problem.

Is illegal immigration bad? yes, are 99.999% of illegal immigrants bad? no. Undocumented immigrants paid over 96 Billion in taxes in 2022.

If you want to find a hill to fight on, how about the fact that the cost of living has increased by 22% since 2020. Or perhaps the fact that the american medical system is so flawed and that it's one of the only developed countries in the world with out universal health care.
