[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the first and formost responsibility of any nation state is to protect the welfare of all of its citizens.  No matter my personal feelings on undocumented immigrants, undocumented immigration clearly disrupts the labor market for unskilled and uneducated workers in this country.

Sure, I get cheap oranges and chicken breasts, but my fellow Americans lose their jobs and have their wages depressed.

Thus, no matter how noble the efforts of undocumented immigrants to get here, I cannot support it. [/quote]

The problem with your 'argument' is simple, most of the labor jobs won't be filled by Americans even at good wages. Companies that require skilled craftsman and in the absence of trained people then advertise for apprentices often find no takers and those they do sign on leave. As a whole the work ethic of the unskilled and under educated, no American should be uneducated, isn't there. Nor is there much interest.[/quote]

Then the wage must rise. Everything has a price. And if a job has no interest as the current advertised price (wage), then the price (the wage must rise). This isn't rocket science [/quote]

Again, common sense!  Thank you!  The wages rise, better paying jobs for Americans.  This poster is way too sane for DCUM![/quote]
