It's never the exploiters who are held responsible

Corporations, companies, businesses, and everyday citizens who hire illegally get slaps on the wrist if that.

The company that Guadalupe García de Rayos worked for at the time it was raided in 2008 is still in business.

We have a sick society that blames, condemns, and destroys the exploited, the defenseless. We have a sick society that has no problem with families being torn apart while those doing the exploiting and their greedy selfishness of illegal hiring is barely noticed.

From the everyday citizen hiring house keepers nannies and yard care, construction companies who hire illegally, all the way up to corporations like Wal-Mart. These are the hypocrites. These are the exploiters.

that was going on at the time - very likely the same time frame.

Shit, if I remember right, we had 1 guy there that literally lived in the tree out front.
