It would be easier to raise the minimum wage or would not have to if illegal aliens weren't underpricing the labor market.

Voters Want to Punish Sanctuary Cities in Politics Email thisShareThis Related Articles Daily Presidential Tracking Poll Most Agree with Trump that Illegal Immigration Increases Crime Voters Question Justice Department’s Motives, Powers Support for More Border Control Hits Four-Year High Voters Want to Get Tough on Those Who Hire, House Illegal Immigrants How the Media Spins the Immigration Issue Sign up for free daily updates Friday, July 10, 2015 Following the murder of a young woman in San Francisco by an illegal immigrant from Mexico, voters want to get tough on so-called “sanctuary cities” that refuse to enforce immigration laws. Sixty-two percent (62%) of Likely U.S. Voters think the U.S. Justice Department should take legal action against cities that provide sanctuary for illegal immigrants. The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that just 26% oppose Justice Department action against sanctuary cities. Twelve percent (12%) are undecided. (To see survey question wording, click here.) Fifty-eight percent (58%) believe the federal government should cut off funds to cities that provide sanctuary for illegal immigrants. Thirty-two percent (32%) disagree, while 10% are not sure. This marks little change from May 2011 when legislation was unsuccessfully proposed in Congress to stop all federal funding for sanctuary cities. Republicans and unaffiliated voters are much stronger supporters of both actions than Democrats are. In addition to San Francisco, numerous major cities in the United States are now sanctuary cities including New York, Washington, D.C., Los Angeles, Miami, Denver, Chicago, Philadelphia, Houston and Detroit.

Low wages reflects the skill level for the jobs available. Want more pay? Learn a skill.

Black Man kills 7 in New Jersey, and Pennsylvania Not Peep from the Mainstream Media Posted by Emmanuel / July 10, 2015 image: threepercenternation.com West is charged with killing three people and Read more at threepercenternation.com West is charged with killing three people and Read more at threepercenternation.com Authorities say a man killed seven people in New Jersey and Pennsylvania, including his cousin, between May and July. Todd West is in jail in Allentown, Pennsylvania. In announcing charges Thursday against the 22-year-old from Elizabeth, New Jersey, Union County Prosecutor Grace Park called the killing spree “unprecedented.” West is charged with killing three people and wounding a fourth in Elizabeth in a matter of hours between June 25 and June 26. He’s charged in the May fatal shooting of his cousin. West and two others are charged with killing a man and a woman in Allentown on Sunday. They’re also accused of killing a person in Easton, Pennsylvania, 45 minutes earlier. The prosecutor says the same handgun was used in all the shootings. A call to a lawyer who previously represented West went unanswered. Read more at threepercenternation.com

Most part time workers have more than one job.

Can you cite a source for that? I don't believe that is true.

3 Pinocchios for Kenneth Quick fact checking at BLS say 18.9 % of the work force hold part time jobs. 4.9% of the work force hold two jobs. Do the math, 4.9% is not a majority of 18.9%. A majority of part time workers hold one job. That's not even taking in to account some of the 4.9% hold two full full time jobs and therefore are not even part of the 18.9.
