Yea talking sense to DRUMPF is futile,but isn't it confiscation of labor for undocumented immigrants

Let's see, somebody works in the U.S. and gets paid (sometimes), but then DRUMPF would put a (what?) on how those individuals could handle their money?! Talking about his claiming he would restrict Mexican undocumented immigrants from sending money to family in Mexico.

Plus, once the individuals found out they supposedly couldn't do it, wouldn't they stop trying, therefore stopping the cash? Or send CASH without paper trails?

Yea, talking like something DRUMPF says can be discussed rationally.

Try to take more than $10,000 out of the country if you don't believe me.

I assume people would just find an illegal way to get the money back to Mexico. I figure there has to be a way to get around Trump's idea. Does Trump have the right to shut down the Mexican Consulate? I would think the Mexican government could attempt to provide the service of money transfer at its offices. Even if that does not work, I imagine someone would be smart enough to beat the system.

their own money? Even now, the undocumented are rampantly exploited, way underpaid and not-paid, threatened with being turned in.

I do not know if it is slave labor? I guess many would call is something like that, but yes, politicians need to focus on ending the exploitation of illegal immigrants.
