No this is not true any more, U.S. companies prefer to hire illegal workers ,
1. they will work for less pay
2. they are not able to join/form unions
3. they can be fired for any reason at any time
4. they can be easily scared and manipulated
5. They are unable to sue a company for any reason
referring to #3, I seen many times where a illegal got carpal tunnel, and the company ran him off, instead of paying for his operation, by doing this practice the company can keep their insurance low.
I worked as a mechanic for a major corporation, that is well known for hiring huge numbers of illegal immigrants. I seen how many production line workers were treated, and abused. I know that if we don't stop the illegal immigration and get every thing back under control, we may end up being treated like they are now.
When a illegal comes to this country, they are not only destroying our future, but they are destroying the rights we all deserve as human beings.

No, he is the biggest hypocrite I have ever seen
He needs to look what the he** his own people are doing before he talks s***. The folks from Guatemala, and a few others south of Mexico are going to Mexico to take jobs that the Mexicans won't do..
He is all for them coming here to our country illegally, but try going there undocumented and you could be looking at felony charges punishable by up to two years in prison...
Now what kind of crap is that???
Also the illegals aren't just taking all the crappy jobs. They are getting jobs working with the government. Working at our airports, missile ranges Department of Forestry.. I know plenty of Americans that would be more then glad to get some of the jobs these folks are getting. They can think what they want but Americans are very hard working people, and a lot of them are working for mim wages and can barley get by, and can't get help from our government.. but someone from another country can get help.. Something is so wrong about that...
Minimum wage in Mexico is 4.00 an hour
not much less then ours in America, plus the cost of living is a whole lot cheaper there...

no all illegals not just mexicans drive down the wages so far tha Americans can not work the job and pay their bills while they live in trailers and old farms building and send their money back to their countries tos upport their families... if those jobs paid a fair wage for the region they were in people in America would work them..it is that simple..for example in the town of Cotton City NM (about 50 miles from theborder) they pay the workers in the filed probably $20-25 per day... that is 10 times their wage in mexico and easily afford their family to survive, but even in a twon like that rent is $300-400 for a single wide or maybe something a little bigger...that means that after workinga months at 6 days a week you bring home $480-600..not much to feed a family of 4, and even at...if they paid even minimum wage, which is what $5/hr..and for a six day week they would get 1 day of OT at time and a half..that is $1040 for the month..still low income but liveable somewhat.....they would pay taxes on it and maybe bring home $800 but atthe end of the year b/c they are low income they would get most of it back..they would be paying taxes,

I do not agree with Vicente Fox. He is trying to justify the presence of Mexican illegals in our country.

Why would blacks take those janitorial or babysitting or even construction workers if they arrive to this country legally. Hey don't forget some blacks were forced to come to this country without their wishes in the name of slavery!!!!!!! This was a typical racial comment and is a shame to Vicente Fox and he should take it back!!!!!

Of course.. i mean all Americans ( black included) place themselves on some sort of pedestal where they feel they cant work for 5 cents an hour, because there in America, and as crude as the comment may have been, i mean its the truth, no "American" is going to work an 12 hour day for 5 cents an hour, especially when they know some "boater" ( excuse the french) is more than happy to, i mean this may sound harsh but its the world we live in

Vicente Fox is a criminal and should be prosecuted for human rights violations by the UN. Fox couldn't tell the truth if he was paid to.

He's just saying that to justify that he cannot create jobs for his own country.
If there were not illeagal mexicans doing these jobs then cost would go up but eventually they would spur more jobs in the technogly sector that eventually solves most problems.
The taxes that would be generated would help our country.
I have no problem with mexicans coming to our country legally though, I think that they are hardworking and family orientated culture.
I do not agree but it may be true!

Who cares how Fox feels about the U.S. immigration.Send the illegals home and find out if Americans will do the jobs the media and the government says Americans won't do.
