So you honestly think that we could financially take on another 130 million people and it'd be hunky dory? Do you understand why we have an immigration process? Do you understand that undocumented aliens carry dieseases that we don't get in the US?
Diseases?
That's the best you have?
Here is the thing......they always blamed the unions but really they always try to beat down wage gains and grumblings be it organized labor or not. And its really not the american contractors fault when he cant get his roofing crew hired for a big job when he has to pay comp and taxes ect and the Mexican crew comes in for much less and are never checked by any agency for anything not to mention taxes. Its as if ghost crews come in from no where.
Result american firms go out of fin business or work for dirt while Mexican crews send all their money home where they live large off the 8/1 peso to $ exchange rate. Thats not xenophobic is called getting screwed by your own government and your own wealthy american neighbor who's kid go out of going to the war while you on the other hand just buried your nephew killed in same and the same year you went out of business. .
Yea the scabby sort.
Well, we can't have that, can we?
