And that is why wages have been suppressed for many jobs in the USA.  Take working in a meat plant.  It used to be a decent job providing about 20 dollars a hour.  Flood in a bunch of illegals and the average wage is now ~10 dollars a hour.  Illegal immigrants suppress wages. 

Some truth to this. But if they didn't come here the companies would just close the plants here and move them to the countries where these people are coming from. Both of our opinions hold truth. It's been going on for decades. 

Not if we tax imports more heavily. Why do you think other countries tax our imports so much? They want to keep jobs in there own country.
