Raising minimum wage will kill jobs and raise costs, deporting the people willing to work for $7.50 an hour or less, won't?
How does that work?

Except of course for the fact that NO ONE EVER has been able to statistically link a raise in the minimum wage to a decrease in jobs.
This little bit of "republican common sense" is in fact devoid of any sense at all.... at least if you believe in little things we like to call "numbers" and "research."
Not that little things like facts matter to the conservatives.... but nonetheless a fact.

There are many jobs that pay way more than minimum wage that illegals take. Mainly in the construction field. There are about 14 million people in the US that work for minimum wage. There are not 14 million illegals making that.

You have to be able to use logic and reason to see the obvious cause and effect. Your posting history here shows you aren't able to do this.
Deporting illegals will create a demand for workers. If that demand can't be met wages being offered will rise as a natural result with no need for government interference.
