There's also little denying that the lower cost of those fancy meals, well clipped lawns, weekly house cleanings, and cost of food in the grocery store have reduced the inflationary impact of these services due to the cheaper labor from the immigrant supply. Yep pay on one end or the other. Some people just don't get it. They key of course is to determine which end is more expensive in the long run...many conservos have yet to figure that out.

Townhouses, condos, and apartments contribute very little in proportion to the costs of supporting the infrastructure demands placed by the inhabitants. Try pricing in the costs per pupil and you're already well underwater. They need to place more of the burden of those costs back on those who benefit, whether it be employers or immigrants.
