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 supress wages. 

Most Americans don't even want those jobs. They complain about them taking their jobs away when they themselves don't even want it.

True to some extent, but this is a bit of a fallacy. Immigrants don't just all fall into a funnel of undesirable jobs. They're mostly given them due to the nature of skills and wages accepted (willing to work for lower wage if it means that their employer will pay cash and not report the income; ie most construction jobs).

Even for those undesirable jobs, you move move far enough north (or shoot, just far enough away from a city center) and you'll find nothing but white people in those same jobs.

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."
