Re: A solution to the Illegal Immigration "Problem"
Hello, I'm new to the board but just have to chime in on the illegal immigration issue.
First off, I am a son of legal immigrants and non anglo-saxon. With that being said, I am AGAINST illegal immigration. It is a violation of our laws and a drain on our country's resources. I don't understand why so many Americans are conflicted on this issue. What part of the word illegal do you not understand? The fact that they blatantly disregard the laws and concepts of legal immigration show they are probably not going to make very good law abiding citizens that pro-amesty groups push for.
The argument that illegal immigrants contribute to the American economy and do the work that Americans won't do is a myth. If you take out the illegals competing for the low skilled jobs, there will be low skilled Americans that will step in. And if not, that's a sign that the job is underpaid and an exploitation by the employer. Our federal minimum wage is $5.15/hr. If you have jobs paying less, ie. farmhands, then you know that's a violation of the law and that's the reason why Americans won't do that job.
