Would it be fair to say the priice of products have went up because of illegal immigration ?

Question

Corporations use illegals and pay them low wages, the illegals make up for this by using social benifit programs. The American tax payers pay for the products as well as the programs that allow illegals to be able to live in the U.S., does this sound fair to you ?

Answer 1

Yes the prices of American products have gone up due to illegals and cheap labor and bad labor..how many people have had a shoddy roof put on their house by and illegal? then less then one year later have to have another one put on because of bad craftsmanship..(leaky roof) so in the long run instead of paying only $800 for the illegals to put a roof on your house you had to repay someone else to put a new roof on for 4 times that amount..just to make sure you got a quality roof with a warranty this time..like i always say you get what you pay for..I laugh at people who hire an illegal to do something..i always remember the address of a home or a business that hired an illegal to do something for them so i can tell them NO when they call and ask for a estimate on a repair job...hahahhaha

Answer 2

you brought out a very good point. jusy read your question and see where it tells you who is profiting from illegals? Its sure not the working people and why do you think so many are allowed in this country? they are not here to help the poor working or middle class people. thats why so many are here and nothing will ever be done about them. after election this whole illegal thing will cool of and you will not hear a word said about them>
i would like to say to 0976 that the people making all that money from the companies are noy union they are called cfs, ceos and the likes. here is a typical uninformed person complaining because a persom makes a living wage while the people at the top take home millions of dollars.

Answer 3

There is only one thing wrong with the above. Mexicans come into the United States and have babies. The babies are then US citizens. However, some green card people take jobs that no one else wants. They are normally low paying jobs. On one hand they have drained the system. On the other hand they are paying social security on their pay. The companies sell their products at a profit, but at a much lower cost. In that effect they make things less expensive such as lawn care and washing dishes in the restaurants and cleaning rooms in motels and hotels. They need to have green cards, be here only to work and go home when they are not working.

Answer 4

yep..

Prices go up, for all kinds of reasons, some of the really bad reasons are:

1. Illegals using our services/resources without paying for it.
2. Raising min. wage - which always raises the price of
everything and always results in people getting laid off.
3. Constant increases in taxs on anybody at any level increases costs & taxs for everybody and always will.

Answer 5

No its more correct to say that you are getting paid a lot less then you should because of illegals in our country.
Taxes are taxes.
YOU pay them whether it is the company getting taxed or if its you paying them.
Our taxes are the lowext they have been for years,
But you are right, much of that money is going to support illegals through our health care system, Educational system, and justice system, As well as the matter of the increase in violent crime that can be directly related to illegals
which deprives all of us of our rights to Liberty and the a safe environment .

Answer 6

I think it would be fair to say that the buying power of American workers has gone down because of illegal immigration, which has the same effect as if the prices went up.

Answer 7

illegals also buy products, which does in fact drive up the prices.

the economics of the illegal immigrations into this country are very complex. It is not the affect on prices that matters so much.

but just rememeber that when we were in a bad depression in 1930 all the prices went DOWN. so maybe some inflation is a good thing and a sign of prosperity.

perhaps we could mitigate this situation if we compelled the ilegal immigrants to report their income and pay taxes on it. We would need the cooperation of employers to do this. your employer reports your income to IRS and holds out taxes for the government. But he does not do that with the illegal immigrants. it is not the fault of the immigrants as they have no power to change this. but it is the fault of the employers who do it and reap the benefit at your expense and also the weak corrupt government that refuses to enforce the laws against the immigrants but will hound its own citizens to the grave for their taxes. stop blaming the immigrants. Blame the government.
The employer gets a lower cost for his products or services but does not pass the savings on to the customer. (if he did the prices would go down.) fact is that he just charges all the market will bear and keeps the extra profit to spend on himself at your espense. he does not pay a fair wage to the immigrants but charges a high price for their services that he subs out. ( like contractors)
aim your anger at the rich employers and corporations and politicians that all benefit form this scam. not the poor starving illegals that scurry over here to avoid starvation in their own corrupt country. they help us in many ways.

Answer 8

ILLEGALS cause our taxes and costs to go up. They use government services and leech off of the system. They have caused many hospitals to go bankrupt because they go to the emergency room, use the services, and have no way to pay for it.

It is time to crack down on illegals by going after employers, ending anchor babies, and eliminatiing sanctuary cities.

Answer 9

It would not be fair to say that. If anything it helps keep the price of things down.
Corporations are the ones that make more & more money so I would look at that first as the reason for higher prices.
If anything illegals make it hard for the people that are citizens to get the help they need.

Answer 10

Education and Health Care, for sure. Heck, if they were willing to learn English like LEGAL immigrants are required to, we wouldn't be spending so much providing them government documents and classes in other languages.
