lol we do NOT need illegal labor, nor do we want illegal labor. Most Americans want the illegals deported. What is there to be ashamed of?? I think you have personal issues towards white Americans.

Not really, chief. We had a little thing in the 50's called 'Project *******', which deported a few million illegals and actually made many other illegals leave. Although political unpopular, it effectively destroyed illegal immigration for a while.
The 50's were economically great...every race of people dropped in poverty (fairly quickly). I'd say there were many factors involved, but 'White America' nor the rest of America wasn't suffering due to the lack of illegal immigrants.
This is almost equalivent to the arguement that America couldn't be as economically viable without slavery...and that was flatout wrong. We mechanized and increased production three-fold. We'll eventually get rid of most labor through mechanizing.
Take for instance the fruit-picking industry which is starting to make machines that will make fruit-pickers obselete.

So you're quite wrong, and silly to assert such.

What is there to be ashamed about? Sounds like a "liberal" shame to me.
BTW, it is a need for low-skill labor, not illegal labor. The fact that we haven't found a way to meet the need without allowing laws to be violated is the fault of the government.

What do we need to be ashamed of again. We don't need illegal labor, where did you ever get an idea like that. We survived just find until so many illegals got here.

Why aren't black Americans ashamed that the world knows they need illegal labor?

We really don't need illegal labor. We need to put the people in our own country, who don't have jobs, or who are young and need experience, or who like to work with their hands (since most are physical jobs - nothing wrong with blue collar work - since when did it become a bad word anyway?), to work - and employers will be forced to pay fair wages for those jobs that illegals currently do, in turn raising the living wage so that we can actually survive in this damn expensive country!
Only the people who seem to think blue collar work is unworthy are the same people who think illegals should be doing it. The rest of us, who live and support ourselves through blue collar jobs and yes, even like working outdoors and with our hands!, think illegals are killing our opportunities - because they are.
Who cares? right! As long as it doesn't affect you, why would you think any differently!

They don't need illegal labour.. if illegals weren't here, then the uneducated could get those jobs and get payed fairly.. but instead the illegals come work for next for nothing, leaving the uneducated with no choice but to go on welfare, join the army, commit crime.. the list goes on.
Illegals don't think of the consequences of their actions.

Good question. It's probably because most don't know or care about this fact. Illegals do tons of stuff most white people wouldn't touch. And as anti-American as it sounds, we in mess without cheap/illegal labor. And yes I know the irony of a white girl answering this question.

Why aren't Mexicans ashamed that they have to illegally invade another country just to get a shitty job?
