Illegal Aliens desired
Anyone here who wants to whine about illegal labor needs to sack up and explain how much more they are willing to pay for nearly everything - from meals at restaurants (who cooks and cleans?) to their new house (how many of those Polish construction guys are here on "Tourist Visas"?) Also, don't forget that the illegal labor pool is extremely fluid - which is a big plus for businesses giving them the flexibility to hire and fire rapidly and seasonally.ScrmnPeeler wrote:I'd love to see a system where employers feet are held to the fire.
No jobs = No illegals
Simple.
These are the real criminals.
-OR-
Invade and annex mexico as a US Territory. That place could rake in major Tax Dollars on Tourism alone.
Like it or not, our economy is pretty dependent on illegal labor. Seriously cutting that off will both raise prices across the board and slow down the economy. If that's what you want, then you need to be honest that you actually want the tradeoff that comes with it.
And to address the moron who supposedly wrote the letter at the beginning of the thread: Many illegal workers are on payrolls with fake Social Security numbers. SS is witheld from their paycheks and paid into the SS fund. Of course, they will never be able to claim that money, so it goes to you and I. Cutting off that flow of unreclaimable money into the system means less for us years from now... And about illegals not having driver's licenses and insurance - it's the same jackasses who block laws that would allow issuing DLs to illegals who complain that they aren't licensed and insured. And what's that crap about ditching health insurance in favor of 'free' treatment at the county hospital? Hey, you can have the same opportunity to sit for hours in the waiting room, bleeding, and then get crappy care. All you have to do is give away your assets and quit your job so you qualify as 'indegent'. But you aren't really going to make that tradeoff, are you?
fuckwits.
