Are the corporation and privatly held companies in on this?
Is this modern day slavery?
Paying 3 or 4 people to do the job of 1 person.
How can this benefit our economy?

Yeah they're coming in by the droves. You know how many I know of in the Asian communities? I believe private organizations may be in on this because it's a huge part of running a business that can't be ignored. Ask any business person and see if, with a straight face, they can say considering illegal alien help isn't an issue he must consider.
I don't know if this is modern day slavery. I'm not a saint, a politician or a poet. What I can say is that paying 3-4 people to do the job of one is beneficial to our economy. It's simple numbers. Why pay your one little brother 50% of the money to help you rake leaves in the neighbors' yards when you can hire two illegal aliens to do it in half the time and for only a 20% cut?

Your perception is very close to correct.
I think the fat cats that have politicians in their back pockets want a form of underpaid "slaves" to do their work.
As a result they can hold down the wages of EVERYONE.
If the Government wanted to resolve illegal immigration they could follow the lead of history and do what the Eisenhower administration did.
Prosecute those hiring the Illegal immigrants.
When he did that, the jobs dried up and the illegals went back home. (At no cost to the American taxpayer.)
We had the lowest level of illegal immigration in the history of the U.S.
It lasted until the Johnson administration changed the policy.
Since the new legislation passing through congress makes NO mention of prosecuting those doing the hiring, you KNOW the answer to your question.

I don't think it is a conspiracy; although that is possible. The pro-illegals group are all doing what is best for themselves, and their interests intertwine. La Raza and mecha want millions of new Hispanic citizens so that they can gain political power and take back the southwestern states. The Dems want the illegals to become citizens so that they will vote for Dems. Big business, farmers, and even small business want the cheapest labor they can get, so they want millions of unskilled people to come to our country. The big business groups including the Chamber of Commerce have great sway over the Repub party and have heavily lobbied the Repubs to allow the illegals to stay in our country. Rich Americans want to have low-paid servants to do all the physical labor at their mansions.
Pres Bush is very fond of Mexicans and he wants to do all he can for them in our country and in Mexico. Some would say that he cares more for Mexicans than he does for American citizens! Then you have the relatives of the illegals and the illegals themselves. They create a formidable foe to patriotic Americans who oppose giving amnesty to those who have broken our immigration laws, as well as, other laws.

Well, I'm coming over soon to live in the same country as my American wife... and i don't think she is part of a corporate conspiracy.
As for work... as a white British male with a Post Grad. education i think i might be of some use.. i plan to teach! does that count as being of benefit to your economy?
answer me this if you will...as a nation built on immigration and having a dominant culture which IS WHOLLY of immigrant descent...
WHY ARE YOU FAST BECOMING A RACE OF XENOPHOBIC NUTCASES?
We in the uk have problems with immigration but we havent sent a hundred thousand army, immigration and inteligence agents to sit in the channel tunnel! Dont you worry that you might be a teeny bit over reacting? what would you do if Canada and mexico started to build bunkers, string barbed wire and set up fire bases along the whole length of the border? DO YOU EVEN CARE?
It worries me greatly as i have so very many friends and family in the states and it hurts like hell when i see only negative images and hear only complaints about a nation i actualy do love. Its like watching a son or daughter having a breakdown.

The economy has fallen years ago america is over populated with immergration and most americans choose welfare and babies over college. to make matters worst the youths of today have no respect for the future they hold tommorow
And with that the black and hispanic people that think tax payers owe them something will have children that do exactly as they are doing now untill the goverment put a stop on public assistance yearly and give educational courses on how to be somebody.

It doesn't help American economy it helps Mexico's economy. The problem really is that they are here in America and use our schools, hospitals and some are on welfare which they dont pay for! They dont pay taxes.

Most things are. Why do you think the courts live in a kind of fantasy world that allows criminals to flourish and promotes clandestine inurement?

The rich keep getting richer.
The rest of us get paid less, lose our jobs, and pay more taxes.
