The entire country was founded on illegal immigration and genocide. I think people forget that the immigrants are human beings looking for a better opportunity. Not to mention the entire western world thrives because of the exploitation of other countries.

Then the companies who hire illegals need to be punished to the fullest extent of the law and pay appropriate fines. The legal system is such a joke. It protects those with money and power and penalizes those without.

I'm in Cali and while there are still plenty of contractors and stuff that operate legally here without illegals I'd be lying if I said that the same trend isn't also happening here and has been for a while.
That and of course the farming thing. Which for those people out there in the field I don't know anyone else who would actually do that kind of work anyway. But construction for whatever reason is one where it must just be the ability to pay them under the table or whatever that made it so prominent. It's hard to say.
I work with various contractors and even a painter. The painter is Mexican but not illegal at all. I don't think he even speaks any Spanish, but his wife does. But he works on new developments where almost all the workers are Mexican. Not sure what their status is but I know many don't speak anything but Spanish. Unlike years ago however these guys actually do good work and pretty fast too. Not the best, but good.

THE WL WILL BE BUILT ! hOW DO I KNOW THA? Because Trump has backed up everything else he has done and he will back this one up. Anyone who disagrees with that just simply doesn't know anything about the guy. Someone told you he is racist and You guys need someone or something to hate.

Just because there were no formal governments doesn't mean their weren't laws abided by the people that were living on the land at that time. Those laws were trampled upon and those laws included a deep respect for the land on which they lived and every living creature.
