Some on the right may wonder why some Republicans support unfettered illegal immigration. Are they all in the pockets of big business who want to underpay workers or skirt taxes? Not necessarily.
Some have bought into the economic idea that labor is a commodity that should only be regulated by market forces. Workers can come into the country and work whatever jobs they can get. If there is not enough jobs, they'll leave the country and go somewhere else. They won't publically admit it, but think that borders and culture are irrelevent in today's world. All other issues do not matter, economics is king.
They live in a dream world. People are not commodities. If the new models of Sony computers don't work, people won't buy them. However, if labor from another country doesn't work, they can sit and collect welfare. They can drain service. Good luck sending them home. Sony computer's don't come with baggage either. The only Sony exports that might explode are their batteries.
