U.S Firms Recruit Cheap Labor From Mexico
But let's keep making these bullshit laws which target the illegals yea that's it America GOD BLESS AMERICA!! YAY!! NATIVISTS BABY GO HOME MEXICANS YEEE HAW!!!! oh the people actually RESPONSIBLE for bringing the illegals over? why they are good Christian men and they are white and they are my golfin buddies they just doin their part to help the economy but these illegals THEY'RE the problem!!

SASABE, Mexico - When Pedro Lopez Vazquez crossed illegally into the United States last week, he was not heading north to look for a job. He already had one.

His future employer even paid $1,000 for a smuggler to help Vazquez make his way from the central Mexican city of Puebla to Aspen, Colo.

"We're going to Colorado to work in carpentry because we have a friend who was going to give us a job," Vazquez said.

2. My point exactly and that's the problem with this country
I've noticed people of ALL political persuasion and yes I mean you garden variety liberals too I've seen EVERY group contain members which are guilty of being complacent with notion of punishing the illegals but not a single word about those who are actually causing the demand.

3. I am convinced that people have lost the ability to....
think. And it's very scary. The repetition of sound-bytes ad nauseum...some of them from decades ago, are starting to get to me. It's one thing to not know the particulars of an issue, but quite another to parrot useless information originated by some 7th Ave. ad-campaign. I guess immigration has always rankled the feathers of those already here, fighting for their spot on the tread-mill, fearing getting knocked off by an upstart. The nationality's change but the rancor stays the same. Sometimes I wonder if the adversarial system of justice perpetuates the need Americans have for an enemy, or their own personal dog to kick.
