Are Illegal aliens are wage thieves?

Question

Do they steal jobs from unemployed Americans— especially low-income whites, blacks and teenagers.?
We can't keep taking on millions of people from countries that refuse to practice family planning. We can't keep taking on sheer numbers that have no end until we end up like Bangladesh, China or India. We can't sustain another 200 million people in this country at this standard of living.

Overpopulation will become the 'Plague of the 21st Century'.
Did you know in 2005 around 10 million , Mexicans live in the US,6 million illegally. One in 12 people from Mexico now lives in the United States.In 2005,Mexican mirgrants sent home an estimated 1.7 billion every month. What do they do with all that loot?

I don't care if fast food goes to 7 dollars a burger, I don't eat the stuff let it be. I don't care about fruit we can import all the fruit we need.What I can't get I'll grow myself GIDGET when is a glass half empty and when is a glass half full? Gidget the world is now split into two kinds of people, and only two! One is the kind who communicate, and the other is the kind who doesn't. Your just after quick points.

Answer 1

PRIME EXAMPLE

In California, CARL'S JR. turned down my B average son who plays football, and is an all around good kid's employment application one month ago. When I went to pick up some lunch, the INDIVIDUAL behind the drive-thru window (for which the job my son was applying for) HAD to ask his supervisor in Spanish what I had asked (to upgrade my drink size).
My son was turned down at a fast food restaurant for someone who deals with the public and CAN'T speak English.

Answer 2

Ok let me share some knowledge with you...

The fact that a country does not practive good family planning has nothing to do with the situation. How many people that live low-income lives have you seen lose a job to an illegal immigrant and not be able to find another job?

Do you realize the number of people in Bangladesh, China, or India? Trust me, America doesn't come close.

Did you ever come to realize that most of the people that come over the border are just saying they're Mexican so if they're caught they just get sent back to Mexico to cross over AGAIN.

As for the 1.7 billion dollars, it's sent back to their families that need it most because a job in any third world country cannot support even one married couple let alone a family.

What you should be worrying about is yourself and not others.

Answer 3

Well, while I am pro-Border Control, I will play Devil's Advocate:

10-20 Million Illegal Aliens are in the US. It is an estimate as their illegal status makes it hard to track them. There are less than 8 Million Unemployed each year. Only 1.2 Million are unemployed long term. Add in 2 Million for Homeless that could use farm jobs (subtract people more suited for an asylum than daily life or are only homeless for a short period, and you have 500,000). That's at most 10 Million. If we take the high end 20 Million estimate, we're only half way to kicking out illegals.


Of course........ if we give all the unemployed and homeless jobs first, then we can hire and legally immigrate 10 Million people!

Answer 4

You know, your comments are very racist sounding and innapropriate. It is people like you that make this world hate each other so much. Why does religion or natinality or skin color matter? If you could only open your eyes and see the other side of the picture would you think the same. What about the other millions of lazy people who sit around doing nothing waiting for their wellfare checks? Or the millions other of people who steal and murder for the reason that they are "different" This is societies fault, i am included in this society but view no one as different, in fact other millions of people are good hearted people, and the only thing we can do for people like you is pray for you, and pity you, only wishing that some day you will understand. And one more thing, those people who come across the border are not all bad looters,most are hard working people trying to feed their families. I hope you see what cycle you are continuing and stop as soon as possible.

Answer 5

For those fortunate to have their ancestors arrive before there were limits on immigration, they want to close the door on anyone after them - kind of reminds me of people who move out to the country to be alone, and then complain when others do the same thing?

Comparing the population of the US with China shows a real ignorance - US, 300 million, China 1.3 billion - so adding 10 million Mexicans who want to work, spend money, send some home (so that, perhaps, their relatives can stay in Mexico? hmm?) does what to our economy?

In raw numbers, there are 7.2 million unemployed in the US. However, there are over 12 million open positions, so I don't believe it's supply and demand, it's skill set.

Interesting tidbid - in Michigan, in 1997 welfare reform was passed and able-bodied people kicked off the welfare rolls - 160,000 people kicked off, within a year < 30,000 of them didn't have jobs - the rest of them got off the sofa, and not to get a government provided soda from a government provided fridge in a goverment provided housing complex.

Oh, and all of that "loot" they send home - based on the number you provided, they send home $20,400 a year. When was the last time you saved $20k of your salary? I think this is to be commended, not scorned upon, since the average "savings" rate of Americans is a negative number!

Answer 6

The USA always tries to blame things on other countries saying they will fight the source of their problems like illegals from other countries, if you dont like them, don't hire them. Grow your own food in your back yard, the problem is here, the drugs are not gonna stop either, they say attack the source, Colombia? come on, is all about the law of economics, if there is no demand for the drugs they will disappear, but the USA is the number 1 consumer how do you explain that? Illegals form Jamaica,Japan, Costa Rica Africa, Europe, they also are here illegally how come you just consider Mexicans the problem. Thats why we have problem because people like you are not even well informed of whats going on. Are you going to start calling us terrorist too?

Answer 7

"Plague of the 21st Century"? the only reason mexicanos get all the jobs is because we have more drive. you think some lazy assed teenager from beverly hills is going to apply for a job picking cherries? The Real American people out there, are the blue collars, the farmers, making, growing, harvesting their own food. we are cheap , because the employers are cheap. so who's the real thief?
i believe americans are insecure about immigrants because REAL americans were overruned by migrants.

Answer 8

If every non-legal resident were sent home via teleporter in the next 30 minutes, within the next 1 week, our economy would collapse.
While we DO need a good system to impliment, we don't need to get stupid.
I can't afford to pay more for food or services & my customers can't afford to pay me more for my product.
Once they're gone, expect to pay in excess of $7.00 for a fast food hamburger.

Answer 9

You are totally correct and that is only the tip of the iceberg.
It is not just what they send home it is how they live on less here that should concern everyone.
Every countries should get serious on population growth. If we don't then everything else we do is spitting in the wind in solving our problems.

Answer 10

Well they are given the jobs and pay. But they do not legal belong here. Maybe an accessory to the crime. If they were not here--there would be no crime.
