Good report- example of racism rape and war foundational to the settler colonial state that needs land back and reparations.

The Haitians are all in Springfield legally. If the bourgeois powers that be in government really wanted to stop illegal immigration, they'd pass a law making it a felony with mandatory jail time to hire foreign workers .without them having a work visa in their passports.

Obviously, the bourgeois we elect don't want to jail members of the employing class and pass legislation making it easier for workers who want jobs in the U.S.A. to get the necessary documents to do so. There are nefarious political reasons for this, including that old 'divide and rule' the working class with racist bull and keeping the illegal workers scared enough to accept lower wages. Lower wages mean higher rates of profit for the employing class.
