What are your thoughts on migrant workers in the U.S.?

Question

This question was removed, why it was beats me...

I think the concepet of migrant workers should be a tool left open to this nations disposal, I also belive this can be a door for future reference when some one applies to be a citizen.

I can see the point to migrant labor for the simple fact, if some one requires seasonal help, but can not get the employes lined up ahead of time, or as a measure to have the required help at the moment. However, their should also be something in play to offer this seasonal work to unemployed citizens on welfare, or even prisoners.

Answer 1

Will and has worked.The trick is not to have loopholes in it so that it is abused especially by foreign workers who will try to take away middle income jobs.

Answer 2

I think the idea's been overused, it was never meant to grow to the scale that it has. 'migrant' implies that people move to one place, work, then leave. Increasingly, it should be called 'in-migrant', because they come in, they don't go home.

I think they should be starting more farms in Mexico, get their own people employed, export more produce around the world.
Get american kids out from in front of the Playstation, and out there picking apples etc. Work really isn't that hard, once you learn how, and there's no better way to learn than by doing.

Mexican people need to fix their own country, and we need to fix ours. Less cable TV, more 'manuel labor'...;)

Answer 3

Well I think that the bums in this country should be working in the fields instead of stinking up our cities and sleeping in doorways. At least they would be able to aford somethings in life instead of shaking a crumpled up burger king cup in your face for donations.
