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.

That is such an ignorant statement. If you pay 20$ an hour to work in a meat plant you would have a line around your building.... Just because you do not think illegals effect anything they absolutely do. My father was a Contractor and the contractors that used illegals could severely undercut "legal" contractors and make it impossible for them to make money in some situatuions.
