Firstly, they don't steal "American's jobs" mainly because they are the ones doing the jobs that Americans DON'T want to do. Secondly, they aren't using up our tax money because they don't get social security or medicare. Thirdly, employers take full advantage of them and pay them much less than the minimum wage, AND they still have to pay taxes (sales, housing, work). If anything, illegal immigrants are helping us by paying taxes while NOT getting any benefits and by doing "dirty" jobs that not many Americans are willing to do. |
Secondly, the jobs "Americans don't want to do" are really jobs "Americans don't want to do for the wages illegal immigrants are willing to work for" ... If illegal immigrants were unwilling to work for these (often illegally low) low wages the offered wages would increase to the level that many Americans would be willing to do these jobs.
