What's "worse" illegals working for minimal pay, or Americans embezzling,shoplifting,from their employers?

Question

What's more damaging to the country and can anyone prove one or the other?

Answer 1

i will prove three things about this :

1 - this is what shoplifting cost to America :

___shoplifting has become one of the most prevalent crimes in the U.S., averaging about 550,000 incidents per day resulting in more than $10 billion worth of goods being stolen from retailers each year. That is more than $25 million in losses per day. Current estimates are as high as 1 in 11 Americans who shoplift in our nation today.

2 - this is what the undocumented " cost " to America :

___according to Alan Greenspan, Federal Reserve Board Chairman, in his 2001 congressional testimony, “undocumented workers contribute more than their fair share to our great country”. These undocumented workers in essence donated, Greenspan informed 2001 Congress, $27 billion to state and local economies, the difference between what they paid in taxes ($70 billion) and what they use in services ($43 billion).

Answer 2

A society is only as good as the people that populate it. IF the illegals are honest, thrifty, and hard-working then the resulting society will have a good foundation regardless of where the people come from. You question is fairly loaded though since some illegals will embezzle, shoplift, etc. Likewise, many Americans will be honest and loyal employees.

Answer 3

Everybody works for minimal pay. The laws of economics governs the work place to pay as little as possible to get the greatest amount of productivity for any task. If your not willing or available to do the task then the next person in line will do it. The illegals being here in the first place is the problem, not what they are paid. As for crimes against an employer they are covered in increased prices of goods sold to you (cost of doing business). So your question is a "which came first the chicken or the egg question".

Answer 4

Many organizations pay like $10 an hour to illegals.On accurate of that it's not that confusing to carry right here human beings from different international places which will artwork for $10 an hour and then at the same time as the artwork is executed, deliver them decrease back. i recognize of a vineyard that does in basic terms that.50 cents an hour become paid to a babysitter like 40 5 years in the past. You, my buddy are out of contact.

Answer 5

Someone has some real hate issues today huh?

There are people in every country that abuse the system. So in your opinion is that justification for illegal aliens to enter a country??

Name one country that doesn't have people embezzling or shoplifting from their employees. If you ever FIND that country, move THERE!!!!!

If you ever find ANY country that you think is so much better than the USA, GO THERE!!!! Leave us alone with all our flaws and enjoy your new perfect utopia country.

My point is...love it or leave it. If you live here and hate it, LEAVE!!! If you don't, why the f**k do you care so much?

Answer 6

Those of you who call yourselves "real true born americans"... and complain about people going to your country changing your language, customs and culture... What about native americans??? your ancestors did the same thing to those poor people who could not defend themselves from the massive newcomers. They lost their "jobs" and rightfully owned land. A "high prize" to pay for the immigrants who wanted a better life a better country...
Will the same thing happen again???
It's very likely!!! hahahaha

Answer 7

Both are wrong. You are wrong to come to the U.S. without doing it the proper way. And you would also be wrong to steal from your employer, shop lift, or embezzle money. There is NO grey area.

Answer 8

I think the illegals are worse. We have enough lawbreakers without importing more. What we need is good honest law abiding people. It is shameful to allow illegals take the places of those in line trying to enter legally.

.

Answer 9

I think both.

But when citizens get caught, citizens have to accept the consequences. We all have learned since we were in grade school, we have to obey the law. Citizens committed a crime, they will be standing before the judge and they will end up in prison in some cases. Though these very same citizens have paid tax and tax pays for judges, polices, prisons etc. funding. When illegals, say, commit the same crime, they have never paid tax, so think about who is paying for them then.
