If we were to have all immigrants removed from the United States, who would do their jobs?
Answer:
American's will do it.Thats not the problem, its at what cost to the American public, everything will go up in price, the result will be inflation.We are already seeing some inflation because of gas prices.
NOBODY
the friendly neighborhood crack-heads
Stop buying into the spin that American's don't WANT to do these jobs...they will do them if they get paid a wage that fits the job or do you prefer slave labor wages to the illegal people?
Who did it prior to the Human Tidal Wave from South of The Border? LEGAL US Citizens and Residents.
If a company needs Illegal Aliens working for $2 hr to keep the bottom line fit, then the company's business model/plan needs to be updated/changed. Greedy CEOs and Owners MUST be fined $100K per Illegal Alien...that would take away a lot of the incentive for "Cheap Labor."

How to hire CHEAP "Immigrant" Labor. A thoughtful seminar by US Lawyers.
The same types of people who did before. Forget the cheap labor, that is part of the problem. Citizens need to be paid decent...anything else is just not right.
Americans do those jobs. Check the stats on the # of Americans doing those jobs as opposed to the # of illegals doing them. Plus it is not immigrants that are the issue it is illegals.
By giving the illegals those jobs you are not supporting them you are supporting the business owner who is putting more money in his own pocket by paying less in wages and not paying proper taxes.
The immigrants that are waiting in line legally would be a good start..
I am sorry to say that most Americans will not work for those type of wages. so I will agree that nobody would step up to the plate...
Americans. Pay a decent wage and they will work it. The BS about our cost going up is nonsense. Think about all the ways you are paying for them. Schools, health care..
For every illegal there are 10 Americans to take the jobs for a living wage. If they are all given citizenship, they too will demand this same wage. Then who will do those jobs?
+
the same people that did them before all the ILLEGALS came over. Do any of you think its odd we have a growing poor legal class in this country. Stop welfare and give the jobs to poor AMERICANS.
And if you think I'm full of it. When Swift in Greeley Colorado got shut down and the ILLEGALS got taken out, the shifts for those workers were closed for a matter of a couple of weeks. After that LEGAL AMERICANS took the jobs. We have people, they want to work, stop using the lazy American as a good reason for this crap, not going to work, not today, not any day.
Well if they all left, then the wages would go up a little, and yes there are americans that would love to work like that, just they take it first, and we do have an over abundance of BUMS
Maybe Americans that are on drugs right now. Or Americans that are in gangs or committing crimes for their wages. This whole "paying inadequate wages" concept has far reaching consequences that are often unexplored.
The unemployed will. Slaves worked cheap too you know.
Call up the Bush daughters...
i know plenty of Americans who would be happy to get that job because that is their profession. just not for cheap.
Unemployed Americans. This they take jobs nobody else wants idea is crap. Just last year a meat-plant in the midwest, Nebraska or Iowa I believe, was raided and forced to get rid of about 100 illegals. The next day, more than 600 Americans showed up for job interviews.
Oh I don't know, people who aren't immigrants, people that live here, Americans! The jobs they are doing aren't necessarily jobs Americans who don't want those jobs, its that the immigrants work for less and make it harder for a born american to get a job. We don't need them here at all, especially working. They work for cheap but that doesn't help us, it hurts us. They work for cheaper, so wages get pulled down because of them. If things keep going the way they are going, middle class citizens are going to be driven into poverty. And yes, I blame this on immigrants and selfish business operators for hiring their sorry asses. Not meaning to offend anyone, but thats my opinion.
I used to work for a mosaic-making company in Virginia, and I and a group of other white & black legal citizens were discharged for some made-up reason, (we did nothing wrong). All of us white & black legal citizens made approximately $10-$15 per hour. A couple of days later a large group of hispanic immigrants (who are illegal, by the way, I found out later that their paperwork was not legit). The hispanic workers were paid $3 per hour, and the company keeps the rest, the company is pretty intelligent about working around the government, so everything looks to be legal. The company still does it today, the company's name is New Ravenna.
There are people all over the world that would pay to come here and work, and we could have a processing center to clear them in their counties
Illegals wouldn't do these jobs if they had any other choice- sweet pea.
You see they have no choice but to work in this country for less than the rest of the eligible employable in the US because it is against the law in this country to put an illegal alien to work.
In order for an illegal to get a job they must make themselves marketable to do that they sell themselves as cheap labor"i may be illegal senor but I work cheap."
They can't demand more in the terms of wages because they can't legally be employed in the US. They can't read ,write or speak English so they are worth less than an American who never made it past the 5th grade.
What do we pay Americans that have no formal education, especially ones with a 5th grade education? Not much angel- I think those folks would be happy and more than qualified, they are certainly legally employable, to handle the positions to soon be vacated by the criminal trespassers.
ADD: Yo- turn on FOX radio- the bill is dead. No amnesty
Americans that is who.
You bought into this crap of "who will do their job"
I have done jobs that these Illegals have done, when I was a kid.
We have plenty of out of work Americans that would love to do these jobs, but they won't do them for slave wages, by having the illegals here and letting them do these jobs for lower wages, we put our own out of jobs. and we keep the wages low. your question should be when Americans start doing the jobs illegals used to do for low wages are you now willing to pay 10.00 dollars for a head of lettuce? when wages go up the cost is directly passed down to the consumer! so now rather than a low paid uninsured laborer picking your fruit, we will have Americans that want union wages and insurance, and this will be in every industry that they now service, so don't be surprised when the cost of living goes up even higher then it has!!
You are confusing immigrant with illegal.
