What happens to our statistics when you take illegal immigrants out of

Why don't you ask a Canadian? They have the highest per capita net
immigration rate in the world, although they don't much concern
themselves with illegal immigrants.


Here's a better question: how many manufacturing plants and service job
companies would shut down if we took "illegal immigrants" out of the
picture?

We have so many illegals because corporations want them as cheap workers
they can exploit by paying low wages and avoiding fringe benefits.

Check out the meat packing industry. Used to provide lots of decent jobs
with good wages and bennies to American workers. Now, the labor is
performed by mostly illegals working at substandard wages. Same with
single family and townhouse construction: most of the work is done by
crews of illegals. Been to a downtown office building? Cleaned and
maintained by illegals.

And, of course, while labor charges have plummeted, the cost of services
and goods is going through the roof.

Corporate greed.

And we get to pay double. Because the illegals for the most part are not
covered by health care, when they need care they show up at the hospital
emergency room, which we all pay for directly and indirectly.

The problem with Herring is that he is simple-minded. He thinks "illegal
immigrants" are the problem, partially because he is a racist who
previously has stated his disdain for Latinos and blacks.

WAFL!!



And, by doing so, volunteering for serious fines, penalties and, in some
cases, jail time.

Are you sure you are not related to Larry?
