Americans won't do the work at the price paid. If not for the Fed policy of unrestricted immigration, wages would rise until labor appeared to do the work. That would be a GOOD thing. The Fed policy is in effect a MAXIMUM WAGE law.

But that is the problem.

For the pro-illegal immigration type, it is a BAD thing that non-college educated Americans should earn above Third World wages.

There has always been a stench of class snobbery towards blue collar Americans about free trade, OBL types I never cared for.

The notion that illegal immigrants will do work that Americans wont is a bald faced lie to dupe Americans into accepting more illegal immigration.

That's right because the illegals have driven down the wages. Construction jobs in my area used to pay $12-15 hour. Now they pay 8-9.00 because the hispanics have come in an worked for peanuts.
