Who (as in what segment of society) benefits most from allowing illegal immigration across the border from Mex

Question

Think about yourself and your neighbors. What do you gain? What do you lose? What costs you more? What costs you less? What should you personally be doing about it if anything?

Answer 1

The rich. The rich get richer and the poor get screwed! Blue collar workers are the back bone of this country, and are the ones most affected by the invasion. Illegals undercut their jobs, sponge their benefits and depreciate their neighborhoods and life style.

Answer 2

companies who want labor workers benefit the most. construction mostly.
personally, i don't gain anything but perhaps a good story to tell someone.
I don't lose anything except for the 2-3 seconds of time when i call a corporate number and get the "para espanol press numero dos!"
there's nothing i can personally do about it but vote.

Answer 3

Unfortunately the USA isn't big enough for everyone who wants to come here so there's a quota system and it's not fair to the legal immigrates waiting their turn. With the recent terrorists actions in the US by foreigners it's become a priority to document all foreigners in the US.

Answer 4

I think it's a wash. Construction companies surely benefit, but they are paid by the taxpayer. If they work in factories, the consumer benefits. Then again you have to pay higher taxes for their education and for community hospitals. Pretty even really, in my opinion. I'm no economist though.

Answer 5

there are no benefits to letting wetbacks get away with crossing the border. it costs everybody more money in taxes so their lazy @$$es can go on welfare.

Answer 6

the company's who want to hire people and not have to pay anything,like insurance,401's and high wages.
