Well since you consider a system with widespread exploitation and abuse of human rights not a broken one. While I am for a legal system that provides rights to all immigrant workers and since I am a republican and a business man worried about the bottom line I dont think it can be such an insult.

In theory A program supporting legal status for workers would limit the quantity and raise wages for all low end workers. This should offset the increase cost in produce.

Mme - I think that was well said.

"I would "prefer" not to charge in to a "difficult transition" that might be a stupid idea. I doubt you have any idea what the ramifications of such change would be. I am not a universal advocate for change. When things aren't broken, or when they are not very broken, I'm not for radical change. "

I think that has been what I have been trying to say forever on this board.
