Are you going to pick lettuce, field work, animal slaughter houses, etc? Are you really going to take the jobs that originally were jobs designated for Mexicans that Americans would not do? Be honest with yourself and others?

What is the deal with this only a Mexican will do manual labor (horseshit). You may not be old enough to remember but as recent as the 1970s their was a thriving community of people (American Citzens) who worked those jobs.

Those jobs were a very important part of our economy. The jobs paid excellent wages , and were respected trades. People bought houses raised their children , purchased new cars and trucks and paid for college educations for their kids from the wages earned from these jobs.

Did you know that in the 1970s you could earn .25 cents per foot to trim a trac home? It only took a day to complete an average home of say 1200 sq. ft. for a paycheck of $300.00 ?
Gas was hovering between .50 and .60 cents a gallon back then. How would you like to make $300 a day and only pay .60 cents for gas.

It was the massive influx of (cheap) illegal labor that destroyed the wages and forced hardworking Americans to look elsewhere for jobs that would provide for their families. I still do construction work, and here it is 4-30-2012 42 years later and what do you get to trim a trac home now ? Answer: Usually around .35 cents a foot if your lucky and gas is $3.69 a gallon.

It is impossible for Americans to compete with someone who doesnt pay taxes or insurance and can recieve goverment benefits that the American citzen cant even qualify for. Ive had enough with this they are the only ones that will do that kinda work. They do not work harder , than Whites or Blacks or Mexican Americans or any other American.

They only work cheaper and thats the only reason they are here. Let them start demanding a living wage and take away all the freebies , force them to register their cars and pay their taxes and provide a real insurance card when they are stopped by the cops and then I can compete .
