Well then why would an American employer hire undocumented immigrants over “perfectly suitable Americans” and if they were “perfect” why did the American employer not hire them? They get paid the same, so why?
Where I was employed they knew full well they were illegals and they did NOT make the same pay as the citizens. I was good friends with the higher ups and office people. The only reason the illegals were hired were so they didn't have to pay them as much.edit on 28-1-2014 by Night Star because: (no reason given)

How do you suppose we deport that many people, and more importantly pay for the resources necessary to do this?
If you take away the jobs and freebies, they would self deport.

I'm being honest in showing the evolution of the law and, yes, it does show it getting more lenient than years in a Mexican prison as it was until a few years ago. Now they just deport undocumented people and people overstaying a legal status can appeal or fight the issue.
The original mention was with regard to Mexico being one of the real pressures in forming our new policies up here and pushing for as close to open borders as they can get...while their own southern border is anything but open or similar to how they'd have ours.

Don't feel bad, I am against ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION also, and guess what? I am still call all kind of names because I am latina, what that tells you? that when the interest behind the pro immigration can not find ways to show what kind of agendas they are really pursuing they got into name calling, like certain bullies with no brains.

Yes.. I asked for the actual laws and penalties...and you gave me your interpretation with a happy face on the end. That wasn't the law..that was your view of it.
The Library Of Congress link above shows the law...without happy or unhappy faces put on it. The law, right now and according to our index of Mexico for Immigration laws currently enforced...is deportation to undocumented illegals within their nation, and to quote their General on the matter, in defense of Mexican citizens...for the reasoning.
Now....if the Mexican military and Federal Police would just stop robbing and abusing the immigrants on the Southern Border with Guatemala. Guatemala City has had a few VERY pointed and VERY direct things to say about Mexican treatment of their citizens.....much like Mexico whines about American treatment of Mexican citizens.

Melting pot that was damn right hilarious.
Because it means assimilating in to this country.
Playing by its laws.
Damn right! Those Damn Irish!!!
Oh that's right...we are talking about Mexicans now...
Same as it ever was...Germans, Irish, Italians, Chinese, Mexicans...
Your thinking isn't new, just history repeating itself...and always the same outcome, a stronger nation for the diversity.

That is exactly right Indigo.
Why shouldn't the Hispanic population /illegals get the same treatment as everyone else ?
