I do realize that the article was about the GOP infighting and I didn’t mean to be a cheerleader for illegals. I was responding to another poster who said that if we raised the wages and improved conditions, lots of Americans would do those jobs. Perhaps they would. Things would definitely be more expensive and soon we would have a Crop Pickers Union with cushy benefits. Is it the right thing to do to give Americans jobs first? Absolutely. But as for myself, I’m not doing those jobs if I can get other work.

Understood, thank you. Just realize, when these millions of illegals get ‘legalization’, big biz will demand more illegals because the legaliZed ones won’t do those jobs either. And they’ll be marching in the streets demanding $20 an hour min wage.
