Why is it that anti-illegals do not just roll up their sleeves and go apply for the jobs that illegals are ...

Question

currently doing? To put money where their English speaking tongues fail to do,as well to act rather then talk(so to say)to convince the employers that they mean business,instead of submitting complaints after complaints "EXCUSES"?

SO THEN WHY DO "YOU" ALL WHINE WHEN NOT EVEN THOSE THAT WILL "FILL" THOSE POSITIONS DO?

BOSSES!

BLAH BLAH BLAH IS ALL I SEE.
SO THEN BACK IN THE DAY "WHEN AMERICA WORKED " IT TOOK A COUPLE OF IMMIGRANTS TO OVER TAKE YOUR JOBS?

SO IMAGINE TRYING TO REPLACE 13-20 MILLION?!
PLEASE ENLIGHTEN ME ON HOW THAT WILL BE POSSIBLE WHEN A FEW {BACK IN THE DAY} IMMIGRANTS STOLE THE JOBS. DON'T GET ME WRONG BUT I TOO WOULD BE THRILLED TO HAVE A MAJOR INCREASE IN SALARIES.

Answer 1

Because they simply don't want to work those jobs. People that do want those jobs are too high on crystal or meth to get them.

Answer 2

It is difficult to convince an employer to hire you when you need more money to pay your house payment, car payment, insurance payments, utility bills, etc., than the Mexicans do to live twenty to an apartment and mail their money home.

Americans have to pay for their health care. They cannot just walk into a hospital and get free help. They have to pay taxes, all kinds of taxes. They have to feed their families.

When Illegals take the jobs at half-salary, how does that help the American worker? Perhaps the Mexican immigrants should wise up. They are being exploited. They are being used.

They are working long hours, menial jobs, and being paid peanuts, while the profits go into the pockets of the employers.

Why don't Mexicans go home and straighten out their own country? Why don't they change their corrupt government? Why don't they battle to build a good country like Americans did?

Instead, Americans have worked long and hard to build up a land where the Middle Class were more prosperous than in any other country. Should they sit quietly while an invasion of Mexicans sneak into the country and ruin things?

I feel sorry for any people who are desperately poor. But causing Americans to also be poor is no help to them or to the illegal immigrants.

Answer 3

Soon after NYC was founded back in the 1600's, the Irish began to immigrate over in huge numbers. And the argument then was the exact same argument that people use now against Mexicans. They'll over run our streets! They'll never be loyal to our country because they're loyal to their own! They'll cost us too much in healthcare and services! They're shiftless and lazy!

All this is about is fear. That's it. Every single person in this country (except for Blacks and Native Americans) is either an immigrant or the descendant of an immigrant. And whoever is here for even 5 minutes looks down on whoever is on their way. Once people are done hating Mexicans, they'll turn to some other group of new comers and say all the same things. And you know what? It won't make a difference at all in the long run. This country is all about people coming over and starting new. And your fear won't change that.

If you really want to stop illegal immigration, you should address the fact that there are HUGE discrepancies in the immigration rules for people from different countries. For instance, if you want to come over from Europe, no problem. Want to come over from Haiti? NO WAY!!! If you want to come in from Cuba, we're happy to have you. But Mexico? 6-10 year waiting list. If the rules of the game were administered fairly, perhaps the players would respect them.

Answer 4

I don't think the anti-illegals want the job....just that we are a country of laws and when our government does not enforce the law on 20 million people....then gives me a ticket for speeding that is wrong. I is just about the government turning its back on the illegals getting away with a free ride in this country while we pay for them. Unlike Mexico (lawless) America had a history of enforcing laws. Once we stop believing in laws we become no better than Mexico. I would pay another $3 a meal to have a machine clean my dishes, table, or toilet.

Answer 5

I just came back from a job in Wy where the tradesman added up to 240 people, there were
83 illegals on the job openly admitting being illegal. I talked to the guys that spoke English and they were paid less and were hired through temp agency in Arizona. I ask if they were afraid of being busted, they said no.

Answer 6

Because the people that hire illegals had Americans, but found out they could get the job done for half the pay and are so in love with their inflated profits, they would not offer an American what is fair to do the job.

Answer 7

I think you have things backward. The employers who hire illegal aliens will NOT hire those who you refer to as "anti-illegals" because they aren't allowed by law to pay someone with a social security number less than minimum wage. You seem to have bought into the belief that illegals are "only doing the jobs Americans won't do". That position is one of ignorance and while the business owners who hire illegals are getting rich, the average American citizen is getting fleeced in the form of free healthcare and education for 12 million illegal aliens.

Perhaps you should actually understand the situation before you post ridiculous questions like this. Start with looking up the word "illegal" in the dictionary and go from there.

Answer 8

Pardon me, but it isn't just jobs it's the crap they bring to America. The illegals (south of the boarder) have litters of children (called anchor babies). We Americans are robbed of our incomes via taxes to support them. We are robbed again to educate them. The anchor babies vote for democrats which insures that the handouts will continue. If you challenge the equation you are labeled a racist. It use to be a great country, back in the day when illegal meant illegal and law enforcement wasn't punished to uphold the law. If you don't like my country stay the f**** out!! P.S. I am also proud of my English..something your "people" need to learn.

Answer 9

Those jobs used to pay a lot more before illegal immigrants exceeded our immigration quotas to drive down wages. That is why Caesar Chavez was so against illegal immigration.

They should pay a living wage.

Answer 10

Because by law a company can not pay an American citizen less than minimum wage, no such laws for illegal workers... hence the word "illegal". Do not kid yourself, its about $$ and how much a company can save by using illegal labor but pass the burden to the taxpayer on all the government services that they use that cost BIG $$ and as a non citizen they are not entitled too, sweet deal for the companies right?

By the way the rest of us are doing jobs that take out approximately 25 - 30% or so of our pay for taxes to fund this whole fiasco.

Answer 11

Hey, dude, what happens when ICE makes a raid on a company? The illegals are rounded up and CITIZENS apply for the jobs they should have had all along.

I won't apply for any of the jobs because I am trained for other things. The illegal aliens don't prepare tax returns, do financial planning or mediation. Why should I apply for a meat packing job? Other citizens do apply!

However, that's not the only issue! Why should taxpayers be supporting them? Why should our taxes pay for education, health care and prisons? Why should they get benefits without paying for them? Don't claim they pay taxes because the only minimal taxes they pay are sales tax and property tax through their rent.

ILLEGAL ALIENS ARE SPONGING OFF THE TAXPAYER AND THAT'S WRONG!!! AMNESTY IS WRONG!
