Z, > I'm totally against banning illegals from coming here. Let 'em in. That seems like a change in your position from a year or two ago ... Tenchusatsu

re: I'm totally against banning illegals from coming here. Let 'em in. Just make sure that if they have jobs, they and their employers are paying taxes. It's the fear of getting kicked out that makes those immigrants accept any salary lest they be exposed by their employers. But the illegals are almost entirely on the low end of the wage scale... so they force down the wages of citizens that are most in need of higher wages. Great for business and terrible for labor. Aggressively enforce the existing laws against hiring illegals, and you will raise low end wages. Then you can actually increase legal immigration across the entire wage scale. Allowing unlimited illegal immigration (current policy) will only continue to increase 'working' poverty. It's a supply/demand thing.
