You could suggest it, but I know it is not true. There are not 10-20 healthy American youth out there that are willing and able to do these tough physical jobs at any price. Like it or not, without illegals most of these jobs would not get done. Lousiana will not get rebuilt without the help of immigrants.

BS. You act like Americans are the most helpless bunch of screwups on the planet. We run this joint, remember? We can certainly rebuild anything worth rebuilding- which is the real underlying point- is rebuilding an underwater city worth doing? This New Orleans rebuilding is the most expensive pandering project I've ever witnessed.

If the market weren't skewed and jacked up by artificially cheap labor, I doubt any smart investor would do it. But, nooooo, we have the geniuses in DC deciding for us.

Not at all. We just don't have enough healthy young bodies who want to do hard labor. As I have said, we are having fewer children and those we do have are getting educated and do not want to do landscaping work. There simply are not enough young American bodies to do the work that legal and illegal immigrants are doing.
