Bush?..When did this question become political?...Iriemon said:I have thought this as well.
What Bush means is this: if we don't let in cheap Mexican labor that will work at minimum wage or less without benefits, we will have to pay Americans who live here more to do the same job. That would hurt corporate profits and make our maids more expensive.
The guy is so transparent.
There are plenty of unemployed African-Americans looking for jobs...you don't have to look to far to find one. Why not give these jobs to them, U.S. citizens, instead of these illegals who don't even deserve to be here anyway?realist said:I staff anywhere from 10-20 Mexican workers year round here in socal. We couldn't survive as a growing company without these laborers willing to work for 7.00 an hour. Per the agency that staffs us, they all have social security #'s, however after talking with one of the lead workers they can easily get around this to work here illegally. I think work visas will help reduce labor costs and streamline the process of getting more labor to the companies that need it.
I don't see illegals taking jobs that Americans want in our situation. I see illegals and legal immigrants primarily Mexican as a valuable resource to help us become profitable by keeping our labor costs down.

Iriemon said:Why couldn't you survive paying labor $10 an hour, and raise your prices? If your competitors had pay labor the same, they'd have to raise their prices too.
Loxd4 said:Here goes my offer for a bill for unemployment:
You(unemployed person) should get unemployment for only one month while look for a job...if you(unemployed person) do not find a job(Hopefully because you can find one and not looting the government) within that month...the government should have 3 job to pick from(that you can burn you're bridge down). And if you do not pick one of these job or get one on your own(that this illegal immigrants are taking and you can do take from then so they can't get a job here...so they go back)...you're unemployment should stop....now if you should get that government job...you're unemployment should be lower, not dropped...but after 3 month you should be financially stable...if not you can sign up for 1/2 unemployment payment...
