RE:"The question is, are you wiling to pay more for those products and services, so that Americans can have those jobs at higher pay. My guess is that faced with higher costs for food, Housing, and Child care that would no doubt come with your plan, most Americans would be unwilling to pay the higher costs that your suggestions would no doubt bring. It's fine to say, 'Let's Pay people More", when the person isn't thinking about where the money is going to come from. I doubt that the Business will eat those extra costs, so you still haven't answered my question: Are YOU willing to pay the higher costs for your suggested plan"

Your premise is flawed. The US allows legal migrant/contract workers to come here and work. For some reason you think only illegals will take "these" jobs. Maybe the reason they get paid less is that their boss can get away with paying them under the table. So in a sense, if you are a taxpayer, you are having to subsidize this illegal activity.
