Or just a job that 'the government' won't do?

What is that show on Discovery Channel or is it TLC, I think it's called Americas Dirty Jobs?? (don't quote me) Anyways there are some nasty jobs on there...definitely worse than cleaning a toilet or picking fruit, and guess what.......they are American citizens doing them!!!! So that show right there proves that the answer to your question is NO, Americans will do the job, they have in the past, there are some that do them now, and there will be some doing those jobs in the future. It's just a myth the Government wants us to buy into.

No, I don't believe that horsecrap that some people give to try and rationalize and make sense out of our current immigration issues. American's would do ANY job because everyone has the need to work. The reason why they don't do them is because they're not available. If immigrants hadn't started to take these jobs in the first place companies wouldn't take advantage and pay dirt low wages, they would have conformed to the economic circumstances. As a matter of fact, there are many many americans that would do whatever job as long as they are getting paid.

I'm an american and there's no job i won't do.
Picking fruit and working in the fields is really really hard. i've done that .
i've been a dishwasher, it's a lot of work for minimum wage.
i've also done a little bit of construction, thankfully, i'm not that weak so i didn't suffer that much.
I can do all these jobs, but I just don't represent all the americans in the US. I've noticed that most Americans don't like doing those jobs.

Cleaning toilets, school janitor, cleaning ladies, servants, pool boys, dishwashers, garbage collectors, street sweepers, working in sweatshops producing American made apparel, waiters, any job that is too menial.
Look around you. The wages are offensively low for an American, but not for illegals, those wages are far better than anything they could be offered in their home country.
I've never heard of anyone from the government as a dishwasher, have you?

Americans won't work in China for 33 cents an hour, producing every piece of merchandise at Walmart.

Are you talking white, black or latino americans?
I believe there's a difference.
But anyone will do anything if their livelihood depended on it, anywhere in the world..
