I don't have the figures. But fwiw when I look at the most profitable

Yeah, like here:

Fortune 500 is more representative than just one luxury manufacturer


The hoity toity folks do not necessarily frequent large vendors. That's
usually not where the big profits are made.

When I start my audio electronics manufacturer I plan to use
active-passive aggressive advertising, with taglines like:

"You could buy a different product. Sure, that's just about what a loser
would do." and

"It's okay to look at other options. If you're a wussy bitch."

I think it will work pretty well with that market segment

That is advocating non-enforcement the law. The people they started to

you don't.

is indeed no further use in duscussion this with you.

Joerg, you live in a world where crossing one human made line makes a good guy into a criminal.
Old Chinese saying (freely translated): 'Any new law makes new criminals.'

Polly Ticksians like to make laws.
It is also some sort of sickness.
They make more and more things illegal, mostly from fear.
It causes resistance too.
Most of it comes from stupidity.

Where were the laws when America started using genocide to grab land from the injuns (Native Americans)?
Now, until this day they sell movies about how they did it.
That is the right of the strongest, smartest, and that also works in wars.
What is legal here today may be forbidden tomorrow, new laws appear every day.
Nobody knows them all.
So you grabbed the land, and now it is yours, and nobody can enter without your written permission!
The land is owned for a while
Idiots like trump that stir the masses with populism have no perspective, and will die without perspective.
A group of followers will utter the same cries as he does, and will die without perspective.
The land the earth will still be there, the borders won't, those will change.

So get of your high horse 'the law' .

Not much in a writing mood, could do better perhaps, but that is the gist of it.

Absolutely. And it should be a symbiotic relationship, too, so everyone

Yup. If people don't like the US or the way we live they should not come
here. When immigrating they should learn proper English which is the
official language. After all, I would never even think about demanding
that paperwork, store signs or product labels also have a German section.

Usually in a short while you can figure out what somebody is about.
trump maybe legal but he is bad... uses division, threats, lies, bullying,
he cannot even keep the white house together (one after the other leaves), so forget about America.
He was born with a silver spoon or 2 in his big mouth, and thinks he can wrestle the world
and make a show like he did on TV.
The world now has all its weapons pointed at the US.


I am sure the Dutch army does not.

In Volkel US nuculear bombs are stored:
https://vredessite.nl/kernwapens/factsheet2004.html

Says nothing in that article about these being pointed at the US.

what tramp does not know (and I trust you not to tell anybody as it is a real deep secret)
is that those were all hacked by Donkere Veter and are now no longer under US control.
In fact the tramp red button is now connected to Fox TV.
Or so I have heard.

Don't believe media blindly. A lot of lies in there.

You really can't understand anything that you don't personally believe? I gave you the analogy of speeding. They enforce laws according to how important they are to enforce. Can you not understand that concept?

I believe in a rational approach to enforcement. We have laws about immigration and they are enforced. We don't have mass roundups because they aren't warranted. Laws are enforced intelligently. We should not create bigger problems by enforcing laws than they are intended to solve.

Obviously you think illegal border crossing is fine. In that case there
is indeed no further use in duscussion this with you.

Clearly you can't understand simple text explained very clearly. So there is no reason to continue to discuss this with you.

Like I said, blind to anything you don't want to believe.

But I will say the numbers are now going down instead of up. Trump, in spite of his bluster, is deporting fewer illegals than Obama did each year.

https://www.cnn.com/2019/07/13/politics/obama-trump-deportations-illegal-immigration/index.html

This page shows mixed info because they lump voluntary returns with deportations, but still has good info.

About the Obama returns, "She argues that Obama prioritized deporting people convicted of serious crimes and recent arrivals who had no criminal records."

This is what is appropriate. The fact that you are jealous or whatever ill will you harbor to others is not the basis of our national policy.

Please don't tell me you never speed. We all know that is a lie.

US border security was a lot less important when it was letting in a lot of cheap seasonal workers that parts of the agricultural sector were happy to rely on.

They are being enforced with more enthusiasm than they used to be. The main motive appears to be to give Trump something to tweet about. Trump claims to have other motivations, but he does seem to be a congenital liar.
