because most of the jobs that the illegals are doing CAN'T be outsourced. How do you outsource construction, landscaping, farming, janitorial, food service and other jobs of this kind? You can't so why try this argument?
For example you can't even outsource jobs at swift foods, do a little research about the process of importing and exporting of live animals, animals raised for food have to be processed in their home country. Those jobs are here to stay.

Those illegals that do honest work are working in the service industry for the most part. That is, bus boys, waiter persons, gardeners, etc. You can't outsource those kind of jobs. Some do work the building trades, again you can't outsource that kind of work. Manufacturing jobs are about the only ones that get outsourced. I frankly don't know how many illegals work those jobs.
I know a fellow here in my town. He's a little slow mentally, but he works hard at what he does, house painting, simple Carpenter work. He always made a decent living. This year the poor guy about starved to death. Illegals showed up and took his work. This crap about illegals "doing the jobs Americans won't do" is such a bald faced lie. The quote should read, "illegals will do any job for less money, no rights, and no taxes".
Take a look at how many illegals populate your state prison, you will find it is a significant number. And they are in there for serious crimes. How about "outsourcing" crime back to whatever country these low lifes came from.

Why no longer? maximum of those immigrants are no longer project-free workers, extra suitable than human beings. only think of in this, if each and every of those immigrants spend $5 an afternoon for living, how plenty funds is shifting around to assist the U. S. economic equipment in on an usual basis foundation because of the fact they're right here? do you want to do away with that? Displacing the activity marketplace? i do no longer think of so.. .they're producing economic stream on the financial scheme. is extra useful to take income instead of create a racist disaster. concerning to secure practices themes... unlawful immigration exist because very long term in the past, even until now 9/11 then you definately can't make any relation with unlawful immigration and terrorism. they're "distinctive animals"

The profitability of out-sourcing is dependent on the value of the U.S. dollar. As the dollar slides in value (which is very GOOD for us, provided we exercise our selective rights over who immigrates), outsourcing costs rise. That leads to more jobs stateside.
As TunaVamp mentioned, agricultural and fast-food jobs are next to impossible to outsource, so those jobs are secure except in the case of imported ag produce and automated fast food.
But even with the exceptions, U.S. workers have shown a resiliency in remaining competitive BECAUSE of automation.
Imagine two identical construction teams (just as an example) trying to build an identical structure. One has power tools, lightweight hammers, communications devices to ask/answer questions, battery-powered lifts, timers for prime efficiency of materials mixing, GPS devices for accurate angles w/ respect to the site, etc,...
...meanwhile...
The other team must use rocks, sticks, wet-willy fingers for wind direction/speed, etc, and maybe a ferret-team hitched to a tiny brick wagon.
See the difference? Now THAT's what I'M talkin' about.

Many companies have already outsourced to other countries. Its a double edged sword, we have jobs leaving and millions of people coming in.

how are you going to export lawn care or fruit picking, concret work, construction? Mexicans have taken over the meat industry, but our meat is produced here and would be too expensive to send the hanging or on the hoof beef overseas. We would adjust just fine and dandy if the illegal aliens were gone. Teen age boys might start working again.

Your premise is faulty and shows a basic lack of understanding of business financing.
If they can outsource it internationally for less--they already have.
Deporting illegal aliens will NOT result in the international outsourcing of more jobs.
Major employers and big business do not hire illegals on a wholescale basis...too risky. When they do hire illegals, it is often unknowingly, unwittingly due to falsified documentaiton.
Illegals are by and large employed by mom and pop small business who don't outsource internationally. They go out of business but they don't outsource.
Illegals are employed by lawn care companies, by cleaning agencies, by construction that is seasonal, by farmers, etc. Cant internationally outsourcfe that.

Most of the jobs being done by illegal immigrants are manual labor jobs such as agricultural work and cleaning jobs.
You can't outsource a job cleaning bathrooms or picking lettuce or cutting tobacco.
The illegals are doing the jobs that you don't want to do.
If they were really causing a problem or keeping they would have been gone a long time ago.

Tell the corps not to let the doorknob hit them in the behind. And the American people can start their own businesses and things would be much better. Especially if we banned them from coming in and regulated how much or how little of their products we would let in. Or ban their products altogether if they get hateful. Let's face it, most of their products are pure poison these days. We started this country from scratch; we can do it again! Let them get their cat-high prices from their wage-slaves.
