We will become a 3rd world country. TPTB have planned for Asia to become the next super power and the economically prosperous show case of the world.

What a load. The US is far from being a 3rd world country. Heck even Mexico is bottom rung of the 1st world. That's how good you have it. Other 1st world citizens (albeit bearly) risk a whole lot to have a shot at your crumbs.

Because politicians are bought by corporations who want more cheap wage slaves and an army of desperate unemployed waiting for a chance to grab a job, to keep their current wage slaves in check.
And left PC "minorities and immigrants can do no harm" sheeple are vital tools they use to promote this agenda.

NC has a high unemployment rate that teters between 9-10%. Because of recent legislation in neighboring states to be stricter on immigrants and illegal immigration, the number of working immigrants has fallen in NC... to the point that we have an agricultural labor shortage.

So why do we have a labor shortage in the fields when we have a high unemployment rate? Most Americans do not want to pull tobbacco, pick cucumbers and peppers, or do any of the other menial jobs that immigrants do. The jobs are there, the labor is not.

Read a history book or the Grapes of Wrath...in the 1930s people could not find work, so they migrated to California or elsewhere to do hard agricultural work...pick peaches, cotton, etc.

The US has abandoned those jobs to immigrants...their being here contributes little to the unemploymnet or employment of most average Americans. They do jobs no one else wants.

So...to the unemployed...come to NC and you can work now pulling late fields of tobbacco and peppers... then harvest Christmas Trees in the mtns of NC...then it will be time to plant way down east for potatoes and cabbages and broccoli and then tobbacco season will be here again....lots of work here.

Besides...to all my co-conservatives. Why would we not want Hispanics to come to America...they are a hard working people, very family oriented, good God loving people...and they aspire to have a good life and will work for it...sounds like the American way to me.

Immigrants/illegal immigrants are doing far more than picking vegetables. It is one thing to have some immigrants to do these jobs, it is quite another when they have infiltrated other areas in the worforce. Many times over we have seen where ICE comes down on a company and deports hundreds of illegals and every single one of those jobs are then quickly and easily taken up by a citizen.

What we are seeing today are wages being driven down, illegals being taken advantage of with poor wages and citizens being displaced in droves. Many construction type companies have literally had to close because they could not compete with the low wages payed to illegals by dishonest companies.

Illegal immigration is a problem on so many levels. These people do not get background or health checks. Thousands of citizens have lost their lives because of illegal criminals who have had previous arrests and deportations.

Billions of dollars are sent back home to other countries of immigrants. Billions of dollars are spent to educate and care for illegals. Amnesty in the past only made things worse instead of any better.

Being trillions of dollars in debt and having so many citizens jobless and falling through the cracks, we must take care of our citizens first.
