MARK ZUCKRBERG HAS A MESSAGE FOR ALL AMERICAN:
UNFOLLOW DONALD TRUMP.
Zuckerberg's advocacy group FWD.us released a statement Wednesday calling
Trump's proposal that the U.S. deport 11 million illegal immigrants "absurd."
Posted by FWD.us president Todd Schulte, the statement doesn't name Trump
specifically but calls out the "voices yelling for mass deportation," an immigration
reform idea Trump has supported.
FWD.us's statement reads as a retort to Trump's first policy paper on immigration
reform, in which he refers to Florida Senator Marco Rubio as "Mark Zuckerberg's
personal senator, " implying Rubio takes his immigration policy cues from the
Facebook co-founder. Here's what the FWD.us post says about the consequences
of mass deportation:
"Deporting 11.5 million people would cost U.S. taxpayers $400 to $600 billion dollars,
and would take at least 20 years to complete. Even worse, this mass deportation would
reduce our GDP by $1.7 trillion--over 5 percent. Many industries would be hit hard,
others--like agriculture, construction and hospitality--would be devastated."

There should be more than a dislike or unfollow campaign, maybe boycotting him his companies?
