right now in my condo complex, 8 Mexicans are working for $10 an hour or less keeping the place immaculate. Are they affecting my life in a negative way? No.

Dude, when are you going to learn nothing is for free. Illegals cost the US gov't conservatively $50 billion per year. The money you save at your condo complex is chicken feed compared to what we pay in the form of schooling, hospital care, insurance money[when an illegal without insurace is involved in a car accident], free lunches etc. If you live in LA go down to Wilshire and Alvarado. Check out what's happening in that neighborhood. Then go up to Highland Park. The infrastructure is deteriorating badly in both places because density levels are way too high as illegals are packed into the apts there.

And then there are the lower middle class and poor Americans who got aced out of a job at your complex because they demand a living wage [for CA] of $15 per hour. The entire wage structure in LA is depressed for poor Americans because of the illegals who live 8-10 in a one bedroom apt and send most of their money back to Mexico.

The addiction of Americans to cheap illegal wages are as bad
the addiction to oil.......and its hurting all of us. This is one of those issues where partisanship on both sides hurts the entire country.
