You know, issues like immigration are just there so the GOP can use them to win elections

and cut taxes for the rich. The GOP does nothing to fix immigration issues, going so far as to stop McCain in 2007, and they didn't lift a finger in the last 4 years, so they can use the issue against Obama now. They totally don't care about the major issues of the day. They don't care about people's problems that need fixing.

They were fined heavily but a fine to Walmart is nothing.
