Really, that was a bit asinine. The people adding to the problem are lazy ass citizens who are either too lazy or stupid to do manual labor. You can argue all you want but you would be wrong. Anecdotally, my auto mechanic and body shop owners both finally bit the bullet and hired Mexicans. Why? The mechanic has fired three American mechanics in the last year for shoddy work that cost him money and customers. The young Mexican mechanic works hard and has been well trained. Oh, by the way he is in the country legally. The Body Shop owner subcontracted engine and upholstery to two American shops. The engine shop took 8 months to rebuild my engine only to discover they never really rebuilt it. The engine was sent to a shop owned by a Mexican and will be done next month. The Mexican shop has a good reputation for the custom work they do. Not sure if they are all legal, but for the money they do better work. Same with upholstery. American shop did half ass work on one of my cars. I refused to let them touch my custom truck. The Body Shop owner, found a local shop owned by a Mexican, they repaired the $hit job on the car and are doing my truck seats. Oh, the owner is legal and he travels to Mexico annually to buy leather and other stuff cheaper. He passes those savings on to the shops that contract him. He personally trains his workers which are a mix of local kids of all races and nationality. He does have a Mexican crew, are they all legal, I do not know but they do great work. However, some people who make asinine comments refuse to use him because, well he must be illegal because he is Mexican. To be fair, I have two auto shops I use. One is all locals, older guys, good mechanics, but try in get your car in. There is a wait list because good mechanics are so hard to find. Face reality, the Puritan work ethic that built this country is lost on a majority of the last two generations. But, those pesky Mexicans still seem to have it.

I make it a point to know that the people I’m hiring are legal.
I do not care what their ethnicity is as long as they are legal.

Not sure if they are all legal, but
***but... you are perpetuating this terrible problem of inviting in a permanent underclass of indentured servants by way of corruption.
