Bingo! So many people are assuming these invaders are following the rules.
You always hear, "how can they run so cheap?", "how can they afford to live?" etc etc. Well, they love 1099 work because they keep every red cent and when they get caught they simply return home and laugh about what they made.
Why would they bother learning our language, assimilating, following laws or anything else that requires effort when they know they're leaving? Can't blame them. We let them do it.
We're too busy blaming politics and fighting each other while our birthright is being stolen right in front of our eyes.Canadianhauler21, upnorthwpg, Magoo1968 and 2 others Thank this. -
