why do illegals think that Americans don't know how to pick fruit or mow their lawns?

Question

Most Americans do thier own chores. Some people even hire illegals out of pity. I used to hire kids to keep them off the street. With the mentality of pro-amnesty(anti-american)illegals this is really a case of exuberent pride and slapping the hand that feeds them. They come here "expecting" work and then they have the nerve to call Americans lazy and incompetent..the people that went out of thier way(illegaly) to help a human being out and give them a job. Most of the illegals in my town are lazy and heavy drinkers. I usually have to go through 8 to 10 of them before I find a good one to work. Most Americans aren't racist or inhumane. Please don't use that as a political platform

Answer 1

YES ON HR 4437 to stop the criminals and the illegals they protect...If you are hiring a illegal to do work for you then you are also breaking the law..I will vote yes on hr 4437 in November and with hope it will stop people like you from hiring illegals...If American citizens would quit hiring them then they wouldn't find living in America that easy. I have never hired a illegal and never will. Their craftsmanship is terrible and its also breaking the law.

Answer 2

Come on admit it.
Americans are not lazy? How will you like to pick fruit? If you are not lazy, you sure have some other reason for not picking fruit. You sure want to eat fruit. Some illegals are lazy and heavy drinkers. But so are so many "legals".
Why do you go through 8 or 10 of them before you find a "good one", to work. You are not lazy; you can do that work yourself.
I agree most Americans are not racist or inhuman. It is only a very very small minority; but they are more vocal than the very vast majority.

Answer 3

You seem to be generalizing when you keep using the word "they". You're grouping all of one people together. People are individuals.
A person comes here because America is a better place to live than where the individual came from.
I live in a state where there are many farm workers. They work hard. Americans(in general) need to learn to appreciate the laborer who works hard. Not all are lazy and heavy drinkers. You said that you usually have to go through 8-10 of them before you can find a good one to work. How many white people do you have to go through to get them to work at whatever you're hiring them for.
Remember someone gave your ancestors a break. I'm sure they worked hard for what they got. I know my ancestors did and they were discriminated against. They were from Ireland, England and Italy.
Stop being so judgemental.

Answer 4

you're going to get an excellent variety of "convinced" lies in the following. yet i'm gonna be honest and say no. Why? because of inflation, i visit't do a lot with an "$8" an hour interest. i'd ought to then make a call from eating and residing in a cardboard field, or residing in a room paying employ and utilities and eating once each and every blue moon. ignore about an position of residing or total domicile! human beings communicate a huge interest, yet it really is all it really is, ... communicate. the in worry-free words way that they could very quite stay off of that in this economic gadget, will be to stay at domicile with their moms and dads. and an excellent variety of grown @.sses do so it really is how they could communicate pfft. And BTW, some "illegals" do not even make "$8" an hour. no longer even close. those who mow lawns etc, do not even cost an hourly cost. they're going to cost one flat very lower priced cost. Like that Mexican guy who did my previous neighbor's backyard and outside for "$15" flat mutually with planting etc. the different landscaper would are starting to be everywhere from $80 to $100 for that interest.

Answer 5

If you continue to hire illegals you are not only a part of the problem(probably a bigger part of it than the illegals themselves), but you are also a hypocrite. It is clear what your ideas are about illegal aliens coming here expecting work and then you turn around and provide that work. It is the opinion of many people, myself included, that the people hiring illegal aliens to work for them are the biggest part of this problem. People like you should be prosecuted for giving these people a reason to cross the border. You, sir, are the problem here. You don't want to pick your own grapes or mow your lawn or whatever the hell you are hiring them for and so they don't think Americans can. Way to go ******.

Answer 6

I Hate to break it to you but those heavy drinkers you see are probably those U.S. born Americans. Honestly you cant say all immigrants only do household chores now that's ridiculous. There many immigrants that come from different COUNTRIES not only MEXICO! Know how to do different jobs. Such as Chefs, Telephone Operators, Computer Technitians, Dentists, Teachers and they do speak English! And the drunk part I see many people who are not mexican asking for money on the streets close to the express ways. Saying they are homeless and they can't work..and supposedly they were born here..carrying their signs ex-veteran can't work. Now tell me what is all that about. Racists people immigrants are studying recieving Bachelors and Masters degrees while you are sitting your behinds collecting unemployment because all the immigrants supposedly took your jobs. So maybe get off your behind and take advantage of your country to better yourself and to move on! Think about something better to argue about! I bet if all those household, farm, cooking jobs were available you wouldn't dare because you are too good for that..

Answer 7

A lady wrote the best letter in the Editorials in ages!!

It explains things better than what you hear on TV:

Recently large demonstrations have taken place across the country protesting the fact that Congress is finally addressing the issue of illegal immigration. Certain people are angry that the US might protect its own borders, might make it harder to sneak into this country and, once here, to stay indefinitely. Let me see if I correctly understand the thinking behind these protests.

Let's say I break into your house. Let's say that when you discover me in your house, you insist that I leave. But I say, "I've made all the beds and washed the dishes and did the laundry and swept the floors; I've done all the things you don't like to do. I'm hard-working and honest (except for when I broke into your house).

According to the protesters, not only must you let me stay, you must add me to your family's insurance plan, educate my kids, and provide other benefits to me and to my family (my husband will do your yard work because he, too, is hard-working and honest, except for that breaking in part). If you try to call the police or force me out, I will call my friends who will picket your house carrying signs that proclaim my right to be there.

It's only fair, after all, because you have a nicer house than I do, and I'm just trying to better myself. I'm a hard-working and honest, person, except for, well, you know.

And what a deal it is for me!! I live in your house, contributing only a fraction of the cost of my keep, and there is nothing you can do about it without being accused of selfishness, prejudice and being an
anti-housebreaker. Oh yeah, I want you to learn my language so you can communicate with me.

Why can't people see how ridiculous this is? Only in America!

Answer 8

Aren't you a nice individual.I think it depends on the people you come across.I personally hired american citizens when I use to own a landscaping business and half of them couldn't hack it for more than a month and no i didn't pay them 6.00 an hour.One actually told me that he would rather rob a bank before he would work another day doing lawns.And though I know that there are some hard working Americans those just happened to be the ones i ran across.

Answer 9

I don't think it is that they think we are lazy it is more that they need an excuse to come in here and if you notice most of these document challenged workers are in construction now and it pays better than picking fruit so who exactly is picking the fruit i'm not racist I believe in immigration I just believe it should be done right

Answer 10

I don't know where you get your "most" idea, for where I live most of the folks hire services...it is cheaper overall, for we don't have to store or maintain all that entails caring for a lawn.

And I take offense, though I have no call to, at your obvious dislike of whom I assume you mean, the Mexican nationals. All of these people are not shiftless and coniving. I cannot imagine being born in such a country that I have to entirely leave it to scratch out a living for my family.

I know we cannot support our aliens and refugees (I live in south Texas) though I feel we should try to restructure how we treat the influx of aliens. The people I know who have come here, though not all of them, are good hard-working men and women, who put family and church first.
