I’ll make a further prediction. Those immigrants will be given a choice: voluntarily leave permanently, or stay and work for N number of years to “earn their residency”. And then the “voluntarily leave” process will be slowly gutted of resources to process those applications in a timely way. The end result will be massive numbers of people who are technically allowed to leave the US whenever they want, but in practice each immigrant will be picking crops at no cost to the agriculture industry for years. Including their kids “of working age”.

Oh lord, and liberals would tout it as a “humane solution to the immigration ‘problem’”
It’s disturbing how easy it is to imagine these scenarios. All I have to do is think “what’s the most cruel thing the ruling class could do to both cut costs and demonize the workers without scaring wealthy liberals who imagine themselves as progressive?”
They probably already do that, but yeah, that’s the only end result I can see for this (other than the collapse of the American agricultural industry)

basically a hybrid of the Saudi system and good ole U.S. style indentured servitude
And to give immigrants false hope/mock them they’ll install signs that say “Work sets you free”
