Does anyone (besides illegals and their?

Question

supporters) actually buy into the propoganda,that illegals only do jobs Americans won't do? That's funny.lol! Because 90% of the construction industry in my state,are all illegals! And they do a crappy job at that!

Answer 1

The truth is that illegals are taking good jobs, or what used to be good paying jobs, from Americans. Ask anyone who used to work in the construction, hotel or restaurant industries and they’ll tell you quite a different story than what is being portrayed. Are there some jobs that Americans in general are not as willing to do? Yes. Do these require twelve to eighteen million illegal immigrants, and millions of more legal immigrants, to fill? Of course not.

One could even make the argument that there is no such thing as low income jobs filled by illegal immigrants. They are really subsidized income jobs with the US taxpayer picking up the tab. The scope of the societal costs from such a poorly paid and sometimes exploited workforce is overwhelming. You, the taxpayer, pay tens of billions for entitlements to these tens of millions and their families. This includes food stamps, public housing, Medicaid, Social Security, Supplemental Security Income, Earned Income Tax Credit, public schooling, the WIC program, food stamps, and Temporary Assistance to Needy Families.

Removing illegal immigrants from the work force would only raise wages, relieve an overwhelming economic burden on the welfare, correctional, medical and educational systems, lower the unemployment rate, and force a few people to clean their own pools or mow their own grass until they could find an enterprising teenager to do it for them. To act as if our national economy could not survive without an additional three million ‘undocumented workers’ a year is simply ridiculous and a red herring argument at best. For those who make the arguments that open borders are ‘needed’ the question is really on their shoulders as to how many millions of illegal immigrants do they think we really need. I’ve yet to receive a straight answer to that question.
"Of 473 job categories studied by the Center for Immigration Studies for the year 2004, only four – plasters and stucco masons, dressmakers and sewers, agricultural graders and sorters, and miscellaneous personal appearance workers – had a majority of immigrant workers, and only 23 out of 473 job categories (less than 5 percent) had 33 percent or more. More to the point, every single kind of work done by illegal aliens in this country is also performed by Americans.

One of the reasons some jobs are increasingly being taken over by illegals is because they will accept jobs for lower pay. When a construction worker loses a $15 an hour job to an illegal worker who will do it for $8.50, that is not an example of a poor work ethic by Americans."

Answer 2

I agree with you! It started out on here that "the illegals pick your fruits and veggies and without them you wouldn't be able to afford your food!" Give me a break!! They have now infiltrated into jobs that used to pay a wage that could support a family and no longer does because they have depressed the wages in construction and other industries that used to pay decently. It really makes me angry that construction companies who try to be legitimate are undercut by the companies who employ illegals. I believe that all those construction companies should sue the government every time they lose a job to a company that is known to employ illegals. Maybe this will start happening now as the ball gets rolling more and more with people rising up against illegal immigration. People who buy houses should be looking into whether the house was built using illegal immigrant labour and they should start shunning those houses and not buying them.

Anyways, back to your question, no, I don't buy into the propoganda. Americans can and will do all the jobs presently being done by illegal immigrants and when the illegals are gone, the wages for these jobs will slide back up to where they were previously. The work will get done, and people will still be able to afford to eat! For one thing, there will be more legal citizens working and paying into the taxes and there will be less unemployed citizens so less welfare and EI. There will be no more illegals draining the welfare, education, and medical systems, so within not too long a time, the economy will improve dramatically!

Answer 3

No they do the job that they have reduced the wages on by doing them cheaper than US citizens. Lots of jobs I did when I was younger I would do again but why do it for less money now than I made 15 yrs ago. I'm having trouble finding a dispatching job cause I don't habla enspanglo hell I can't even spell it and why should I, I'm not hispanic, legal or illegal, and was raised speaking english was taught it in school as everyone was in the 60's and 70's. I can't believe that some liberal unions are actually pro (illegal) immigration when it only depresses wages.

Answer 4

Golosa, I have done what you speak of when picking strawberries only paid 11 cents a pound, I fed and clothed my wife and child by doing so. Tell me when did your spoiled *** ever traipse into a field for anything except to fornicate? You disgust me. Did nt you want to be portrayed with a well hung, good looking guy? Or was it someone else? I dont recall. you all sound the same after a while, blahh,blah, blah,,,etc.
Gidget, Yes we do. We research the FACTS. We relay FACTS. We rely on FACTS. You ask silly questions, then have the temerity to ask if anyone does any research? Get real white woman.
THERE IS NO JOB IN AMERICA THAT AMERICANS WILL NOT DO IF PAYED A LIVEABLE WAGE!

Answer 5

Answer 6

There are no jobs that Americans won't do. That is an outright LIE.

However, we don't live 20 per household like illegals do. We can't afford to work for slave wages.

Colortx is dreaming. There is nothing that they can do better than Americans, ever.

Answer 7

Hey lady, take a course in economics's 101.

This govt. relies on slave labor and just because you don't think so, doesn't mean it is. In fact you are wrong about illegals doing a crappy job.

They build beautiful million dollar homes here and they do it better than Americans.

I can see you are just hateful and bitter about life in general....get a life!

Answer 8

It is a myth...We all know that illegals drive down wages in America, given a livable wage, there isn't a single job an American wont or cant do.

Answer 9

The chickens (roosters/cocks, relatively) go through plenty while they warfare. frequently the winner is injured so badly that he will later die of his wounds. Any blood activity is cruel. component of the allure of poultry and canine struggling with is the prospect to make certain various harm to the animal, and the dying of the animal. comparable is going for bullfights. i've got heard arguments that bullfighting is a factor of the lifestyle, and there is various artistry. in certainty nevertheless that the bull is largely tortured to dying. there's a ritual the place some men stick spears in the bull, to injure it and to reason it to lose various blood to weaken it. The bull is goaded so it is going to save struggling with. it is not a rather sight. i think it is a ethical reason after all, that we could continuously no longer inflict pointless suffering on animals. I consume meat, alongside with poultry, myself. i'm no longer an severe animal rights activist. even nonetheless, I hugely choose to think of that the beef that i purchase became into taken care of humanely while it became into alive, and slaughtered humanely, with the smallest quantity of suffering available.
