I agree, DeepFat. If the cheap illegal labor is no longer allowed (because it's illegal!), then those companies will adjust. They will either pay higher wages or go to work for someone who can. Either way they are no longer breaking the law by hiring illegals. I do believe NashBama can take credit for convincing me of this a while back. I was one of those questioning whether Americans would do the dirty work.
Just noticed on Yahoo News:

Bush seeks better ties in Latin America By DEB RIECHMANN, Associated Press Writer

MERIDA, Mexico - President Bush, ending his five-nation trip to Latin America, sought to overcome rising anti-American sentiment by pledging goodwill and a fairer immigration policy.


Why does the AP think the immigration policy is now unfair?

If you want to see prejudice given as news, here it is!

Pay people enough money and see how hard they work. Not long ago I linked a story from Georgia about a plant that was raided by immigration agents. Most of the plant's workforce was gone and they had to hire people quickly. They raised the wages, put an ad in the paper, and Americans who were previously unemployed were lined up trying to get hired.

Paying someone from a 3rd world country $4 an hour to dig a ditch is like offering me $200k a year. If someone offered me that much to dig ditches, I'll dig the best **** ditch you've seen in your life. It's a huge amount of money for them and increases profit for the businesses. The problem is Americans who would normally be doing those jobs can't live off the wages and are unemployed. Start enforcing the laws, putting stiff fines on employers who hire illegals, and it would be more cost effective for companies to hire Americans at a fair wage rather than risk a stiff fine for hiring cheap illegal labor.

Joy, DF.....I didnt say that I would hire much less support Illegals, I most certaintly would NOT!!
Here is the point I was trying to make on that single line item.....LEGAL MEXICANS work hard and pay the same employee taxes as a white worker. LEGAL Mexicans are some of the hardest workers I have ever seen!! When LEGAL MEXICANS go to spend their paychecks they pay the same taxes as a white worker. LEGAL MEXICANS are an asset to an employer (just like white or black workers).
SOME White workers WOULD rather sit on their humps and spunge off the Uncle than go to work at a lower paying job.
I have white workers come in all the time and fill out apps, they will work long enough to either get their wife or mom off their back or they get "hurt" so they can draw workers comp.
Not all whites are this way, dont get me wrong, it just seems to be a trend towards people thinking that the govt OWES them something.
I have alot of white people working for me that have worked hard their whole life.
I guess the bottom line is I dont see anything wrong with an upstanding person coming to the US and entering leagly in search of a better life for themselfs and their children, its the American way for crying out loud, unless your full blooded American Indian somewhere down the line thats how YOU arrived!
Seems I got Knowitall a bit riled up...

K, no one has a problem with legal immigrants, except there are so **** few of them.

Did you see the video? We aren't talking about farmworkers or roofers here. We're talking about invaders trying to colonize the Southwestern United States and the domestic traitors who are on their side. And, they're winning, especially the Psy Ops war.

By the way, my people came here in chains, against their wishes.

I don't have a problem with people who entered legally & have not broken the law. If I implied that, I sure didn't mean to.
Why is no one at least discussing our safe borders? Anyone can just walk across the border. This does not make me feel very safe. It just makes no sense to me. It is just not Mexicans crossing the borders!

Mexico depends on us to take their poor, violent, and corrupt who then in turn send what money they can back home. Not a bad deal for Mexico! What is going to happen when our resources are dried up? It is not a bottomless pot of gold here. The money we spend on them is not going to help the legal aliens and citizens of this country. The leaders of other countries are trying to pressure us to make immigration more fair (easier!), what nerve! They need to support their own.
I think extremism, almost any variety, is bad. An exception would be a reactionary response to an extreme act in order to protect yourself.

I would like to say that we, as a country, have our priorities or emphasis on the wrong areas. The United States is clearly being over-run and transformed into a third world country. In a lot of places it is already there.

While we're busy nation building across the globe, "taking care of everyone else", our own is suffering.

Why?

Can anyone give me one good reason why we should put corrupt politicians in office who place another nation's safety and well being above our own???
