[b]Sorry, but I remember how well folks prospered about ten years ago with blue collar jobs. Construction workers used to earn a livable wage and could support their families. With the large number of illegal immigrants in the country, wages have dropped so low that it is not a viable field anymore.[/b] Why exactly should folks take a 50% paycut for the same work (and the same risks and dangers)? This is happening over a multitude of blue collar jobs. And no I don't think education is the key. Not everyone is cut out for higher education and folks shouldn't be forced to do this because cheap assholes want to exploit illegals. FWIW, I harshly judge those who use the labor of illegal immigrants. I think they should be harshly penalized and possibly even jailed for abetting illegals.

While we were founded on the principles you listed, based on the economic climate in which we now live, it is NOT a sustainable principle. We can't just open the floodgates and take in the disadvantaged of the world. Do you not see the correlation between the terrible economy and the increase in illegal immigrants? You seem to think that illegals work to support their families without any assistance from the govt. You would be VERY wrong. They are draining our public resources and US citizens are suffering as a result.

re: humanity. If you want to talk about humanity/humility and helping those in need, look to countries in Africa and Asia. Now, THAT'S poverty. Would you suggest we take in those people as well? Proximity to the US shouldn't be a determining factor in who gets to come here and escape their downtrodden circumstances. [/quote]

It was due to the housing bubble collapsing, not due to illegal immigration. Illegal immigration is at record lows. You're an idiot.[/quote]
