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. |
With unemployment as high as it is do you really think there is such a thing as "jobs people don't want"?
Additionally, you actually do get a lot of "skilled" illegal aliens. Electricians, airconditionar repair men, etc.
You can have them do work, have someone else sign for it and pay them less.
The only jobs I can't see a lot of americans wanting which illegal aliens do is farm jobs. For one reason only. Farm Jobs are exempt from minimium wage.
I have no fucking idea why either, it's not like being a waiter where you get tips.
Actually... I do know why... because companies lobbied for it to be that way so they could hire illegal immigrants. (And legal migrant workers).
