Then we should move quickly make them legal, or at a minimum "guest workers"....right now--instead of dissin' them.
I think Donger is right. I think a marginal increase in pay, coupled with the fact there are enough workers who'd be willing to take on second jobs or part-time jobs....that much of the loss could be absorbed, over the long run.
