How many other Americans are doing jobs that Americans just wont do?
Are you?
Answer:
if you are jobless and moaning and complaing about "illegals" taking American jobs, why don't you go and take the job away, if you know they are illegal.
Yes. I teach. There's a huge shortage.
Yes, cleaning my own house and mowing my own grass.
I watch my own children and clean my own house. I also cook and mow the lawn. I'm a house wife. Do I count?
OK I want to see that one of those Americans that are picking strawberries or apples answers you question.
Please give me a break!!!
Yeah I'm sure you have.
Yes, maybe we should get one of these illegals to do the work that Bush, and Congress won't do.
i am proud of you and those others who stand up for us americans! it is ridiculous to argue that illegal immigrants do the jobs that many americans dont want to do! why? at least they have a job! they should be thankful. it is not our fault that their country failed! besides, what happened when there were no hispanic illegal immigrants to clean the hotel rooms, work in the fields or other kinds of jobs? we have always been an industrious country for centuries now!! i dont think this country would die if they stopped cleaning the hotel rooms or mowing the lawns. we are too strong for that to make us fall!
It also bothers me that people dont want to accept the fact that the majority of immigrats are from Mexico.that is a fact! it is easy to deny it and call someone a racist rather than accept the truth. i dont understand why many think immigrating to america and causing problmes here is the solution.they need to make their own country better! i wonder if all Mexico will be moving here someday.
Yes, but Bush is wrong in thinking people will stay in these jobs. There is nothing wrong with these jobs, but eventually when more and more educational benefits and assistance programs kick in for the new legals they will be looking for better jobs and ways to improve themselves (don't blame them there).
It should be what you can do for America, not what America can do for you --and that should be followed from the start.
However, if America is going give handouts, what about these benefits for all the Americans who were born and raised here first, and not so much classified on a new group of certain heritage?
just another example of the way a C student proclaims knowledge of a subject. No offense to C students but....
I have seen an infiltration into many job markets by illegal mexican immigrants. Don't try to tell me that there are no American carpenters! Homebuilding and apartment maintenance are two areas that mexican illegals have taken over because they will work cheaper, but in the process have lowered the quality of the product. Who used to build Americas highways? Who used to build Americas new homes? Hey Georgie, America knows your an idiot. Everyone in the world tells him he's wrong, so, he does what he wants anyway. Gee what a great president, NOT!
Yes, I HAVE done those very jobs. I have been a CNA taking care of the elderly in nursing homes, I have also been a dishwasher and even worked out in fields.
Every time I hear Bush say that it amounts to him spitting on Americans calling them lazy!
If there weren't Americans WANTING those jobs there wouldn't be a long line in front of the SWIFT and Del Monte Plants the day after a raid.
I was a carpenter for 20 yrs. and it took me that long to reach the point where I was making a good hourly wage, then low and behold we had an invasion of illegal Mexicans and in a short period of time they more or less took over the construction industry. What I was doing for $20 hr.,
they are doing for $10 hr.
The illegal Mexicans need to go home and fix their own country rather the ruining ours.
President Bush lives in a world of denial along with the majority of the wealthy people in the U.S.
They either don't know or just don't care what they are doing to this country.
I used to work on a farm when I was in HS. I did work with several people who now I suspect are probably illegal. Sometimes you never know but you can make an educated guess. The sad thing is there are jobs some americans won't do mainly because they do not want to do the labor, but if you stop giving people welfare then you will start to see less illegals doing jobs americans "won't" do.
As much as it hurts me to admit it, I wonder if GW caught Ronald Reagan's Alzheimers. I have always been a staunch Bush supporter but this immigration issue is pushing me away. I'm not sure you can ever trust a president during his last term in office regardless of who they are, but I keep expecting the next shoe to drop.
This mostly affects working class people, illegal immigration tends to affect those who make less than $75,000 a year.
What about all of the American workers that lose their jobs working in the car factories due to down sizing? I am sure they would be glad to do a job an illegal does to put food on their families table. Oh but they would get paid minimum wage AND have TAXES taken out their check because they are legal. Now that's sad.
Not as many since the invasion.
Yes I do,everyday!
