Why the claims of the ABUSED illegal worker?

Question

1. MOST illegals work in construction (app'x 40-45%)
2. The 2nd largest roup of illegals work in small restaurants (app'x 40%)
3.3rd migrant farm workers (3rd!, not most (less than 20%)
numbers come from US Bureau of Statistics!
businesses do not abuse their illegal workers often because the word spreads quickly and they soon lose their workforce and must pay more for labor.
On occasion, I am sure a problamatic worker is fired without receiving his pay because the company CAN and because it puts fear in those that remain.
By and large, Illegals probably work a bit harder because of the same fear, but at the same time businesses that hire them treat them well for the resons stated above.
stop the rhetoric, or prove me wrong!

Answer 1

What is your point? If the illegal workers don't want to be abused by the system, they shouldn't be here.

Answer 2

The construction industries has been a source of good skilled labor jobs to Americans for years, illegals have destroyed the construction industries for Americans, and why is it that illegals always talk about the taxes the pay, no social security number no paying taxes when you work for cash no taxes are taken out sales tax does not count, by the way that cheap labor argument that you will all hear at some point, has anyone stopped to consider that 30% of the legal workers check is taken for taxes, where as illegals get paid in cash with no taxes taken out that makes it much less that they are hard workers and much more like they are..... CRIMINALS.
If i did not pay my taxes i would go to jail, illegals should to or better yet, GO HOME.

Agriculture, construction, hotel and motel work, domestic service, restaurants, resorts, and prostitution are the jobs that unauthorized workers, who often have limited education, are most likely to fill. For example, it is estimated by some that 30% of U.S. crop workers (~5% of the unauthorized workers in the U.S

On behalf of a request made by Senator Jon Kyl, the Arizona Hospital and Healthcare Association calculated the cost of providing health services to illegal immigrants to approximately 31 million dollars in just one year. The figure was given as a "bare minimum number", said the Association's John Rivers.

The flood of illegal aliens has also caused a surge in crime, and has subsequently seen the prisons become even more overpopulated. Approximately one third of the prison population is comprised of non-citizens

The Federation for American Immigration Reform, a leading group in the immigration reduction movement, reports that illegal immigration costs Arizona taxpayers approximately 1.3 billion dollars every year. Current reports estimate the population of illegal aliens in Arizona to be nearly half a million. The U.S. Border Patrol reports stopping that many criminals crossing the border in just one year, highlighting the extremity of the problem at hand.

Ileagals make up 10% of the work force.

A ton more on cost decided to leave that to yar-

They might be good workers but I can not afford the whole of it. Seal the borders-use our soldiers here in the US and make the fence.

Answer 4

There Are 20 Million + ILLEGAL Aliens Living In The USA

Only 2 Percent Of ILLEGAL Aliens Work In Agriculture

Illegal aliens are NOT doing work Americans won't do.
What jobs won't Americans do?
Americans still
--clean houses,
--do landscaping,
--clean hotel rooms,
--work in restaurants and fast food places,
--paint houses,
--DO CONSTRUCTION WORK,
--work in airports, etc. -

just like we have the past 200 years before "our" government allowed these people to invade our country.

There are 18 million Americans who cannot find a job, so illegal aliens who are coming here to work do so at peril to American workers.

Illegal aliens are NOT necessarily coming here to work.
Lou Dobbs recently reported
that 33 percent of our Federal prison population
is now comprised of non-citizens.

Plus, 36 to 42 percent of illegal aliens
are on welfare, Depending On The Source Of Information

So, for a good proportion of these people,
the American dream is crime and welfare,
not coming here to work.

The Center for Immigration Studies estimates
that the average Mexican illegal alien
costs U.S. taxpayers a whopping $55,000 each.

Some bargain, Huh?

Answer 5

Hadenough was right about the cost of health care escalating. We already need a system that provides for the working American. To have our funds depleted by covering costs of the uninsured, we are unable to provide follow up care on many patients. Illegal immigration whether you believe it or not, depletes our funds, which in the end, causes Americans to not have follow up care. It sucks.

Answer 6

Some of them work hard, some of them don't. The fact is they've come and stayed here illegally, and that is wrong. It's unfair to legal people standing in line for citizenship, it's unfair to tax payers who have to bear the burden, and it's a national security threat.

Answer 7

Wow, I agree 100%! Although, what is your question, if any? OK, well, maybe it's why does our govt support this? Ah, very simple:

2006 Slave labor
Future voters for both Reps and Dems yes, vote IND!
and I can't think of anything else. It's very sad, and our gvt wants us to pay our exorbitant taxes? Boston Tea Party Anyone wanna join?

Answer 8

Build the fence
-deport the illegals
-hold American businesses accountable.

Vote Libertarian!

Answer 9

if most illegals worked construction, the number would have to be higher than 51%, not the 45% you state. so you are lying again, haglund. you moron.
