Americans in general are spoiled. Yes I am american and yes I am proud to say I am spoiled. We do not want to stand in 100 degree heat and pick tomatoes, or build houses, etc... We want cushy jobs in the a/c where we sit on our behinds and get paid more. And you can argue all you want that the homeless man on the corner begging for change could take there places but let's face it, some of those so-called "homeless beggers" aren't really homesless and are making around $150 or more a day. Little work with great pay is the goal of nearly every american. You can deny it all you want if it makes you feel like a better person but we all know the truth.

Because the buisness owners are exploiting them for profit. It's pure greed plain and simple. To the people who say " illegals do the work that Americans won't" I say :Do you know WHY Americans won't do the jobs? Because they don't pay enough. Why don't they pay enough? Because the illegals have driven the wages down. Who benefits from this? Not the illegals. They work hard and live in poverty. Not the government. They can't collect taxes from them on those low wages even if they weren't being paid off the books. Not the rest of American society. We have fewer living wage jobs available and have to pick up the expenses for all the public services these people use here like schools, health care etc. The only ones who profit are the greedy buisness owners who hire them.

I don't. Our farm has a firm policy. Americans only will be hired. And guess what...we turn a profit, so there is no excuse for the employers.
Fact is...farmers who don't hire illegal aliens receive the same amount for their crops as those who do hire them. There are no savings passed on to consumers.
I am not part of the reason they are here, but I am part of the movement that would see them gone.

It is not all of us. It is the big companies like Tyson and Taco Bell.
Most of the americans don't want them here. The whole line they do jobs americans WONT do is BS and a half.
They are taking the jobs americans need but we cant survive on what they pay illegals.
We don't live 20 to a 2 bedroom house and take 2 to 4 bucks an hour per person.
Don't catagorize all of us in one bowl as giving them jobs.

Here's the deal:
If they weren't here to begin with (criminally), they wouldn't be hired.
And if they weren't getting jobs (criminally), they wouldn't be here.
I blame them and the employers equally and completely. Neither one is "lesser" at fault.
Both are equally 100% wrong.
