that’s the whole point, right?
To their credit, yes.
And many of them base their work decision based on a peso-centric evaulation of the wage offered by that job.
Why is that some huge surprise..?
There are stories of Mexican doctors in very hard times doing menial cross-border jobs, and that was a rational decision at different historical junctures.
When you can cross and imaginary line and instantly get a 300 percent raise.....This isn’t too complex.
Is it really less? After I get raked over the coals with taxes and other deductions, I make a lot less than advertised. Illegals work tax-free and don’t pay anything for the benefits they receive.
I wonder how much this study costed?
Let’s see.
Illegal aliens will work cheap.
I did not know that.
/s
Many of them work for cash, and that is on top of Food stamps, Section 8 housing and zillions of other little benefits, the latest proposal for which is “The Diaper Divide”.
I heard somewhere that between 1/3 and 1/2 the population of Los Angeles County works ONLY for cash, totally off the books.
What % of the women and anchor babies work?
Victor Davis Hansen wrote a great article on how desperate Mexican illegals offer white middle or even lower-middle class people a chance to “PLAY ARISTOCRACY”:
You have a gardener, a nanny, maybe a cook...
I thought it was a savage, but not completely unworthy point.
Nearby there is a town called “Carmel”, where the former mayor was Clint Eastwood.
There was a home invasion a couple months back:
The terrified, wealthy home owners were amazed at how professional the thieves were —seemed to know exactly what they were looking for, as they threatened them in their pajamas.
Then they suddenly realize one of the masked men was their GARDENER.
WSJ LOVES open borders for just that reason.
Total fiction!
(And everyone knows it.)

Well, bring em in, then. Whaddo we care? It’s acommunist collective, isn’t it? Each according to his identity. Black Hispanic, man, woman. Some are more equal than others. Muslims are more equal for the moment. So are Spanish speaking Hispanics
Is this the actual headline?
Who writes this poorly, and why are they working at the Journal?
Maybe the WSJ should hire illegals for journalism work. What do you need to know to be a journalist who writes the propaganda we see?
Once they receive amnesty andmore importantlythe right to vote, the minimum wage will go through the roof, the value of the dollar will plummet even further, and we’ll truly be in the socialist dystopia our “betters” dream of.
That is an argument for tossing them out.
So I’m guessing they know who they are and where they are?
