2. That's why I say you have to seal the border before you do anything.

I realize that, and I proposed a solution earlier. Probably too icky for most, however.

I am not buyin' into the idea that Americans won't do these jobs.
If the free-market, and I mean we need a free-market inside America first, can't get people to fill these jobs then the scarce labor pool demands higher pay, better benefits and improved working conditions for these jobs which should go to our poorest Americans first. So the costs go up! BFD! Soooo...the illegals are getting free taxpayer services too. Don't tell me they don't. I know someone who rents to one who had a baby and Medicaid paid for it. So we pay for it somewhere. Our poor American citizens can come off welfare instead so it balances out. Further,if costs get too high people just won't buy as it's too much to bear and then the costs come back down or that industry has to become more efficient and productive.This is how the market works...it regulates itself. Many of these are jobs for teenagers too. Do not reward the behavior you don't want. Just increase how many can come in legally. Anyhow, many of these illegals do not want to be citizens, show no loyalty to America and want to reclaim former Mexican land. That's dangerous imo. In fact amnesty was granted to the hordes that invaded Rome and it contributed to it's fall due to the corruption of these hordes and in the Senate. So our Nero-like-Senate repeats the same mistake. What's Vincente Fox's next move? Probably to sack Phoenix and then LA. |
