If a head of lettuce costs $10, then they must be paying people about $150/hour to pick it.

All well and good you might say, until you find yourself paying $10 for a head of lettuce at the supermarket. >>>>>>>


The old *lettuce* story AGAIN ???

Even *if* lettuce went to 10 bucks ahead, Americans would have a CHOICE as to paying that much for it.

As it is, Americans are being FORCED to pay the bills on illegals through higher TAXES, HEALTHCARE, INSURANCE, etc, etc.

Guess, it's fine with you that our gov't now CHOOSES which of our laws they want to enforce.

Bull sh*t..

Lets see, cities like LA have millions of illegals and not a freaking vegetable field within sight. LOL!

These aren't my kids. These are kids already in programs to help them.

BTW, since when does the wholesale violation of our borders constitute a free market situation. Balony. I am a beancounter by trade and I knew every tiny bit of minutiae involved in running the business. I'd know. And Walmart knew. They didn't get to supersized status ignoring elements of the bottom line.

[RobbyS]

Slapping a hefty fine on Walmart would catch the attention of its management.

[Conservative til I die]

Um, fool? All 300 were illegal.

[RobbyS]

Walmat is a BIG operation. Why hit on the Catholic Church instead of hitting on widespread sexual abuses in the smaller denomination. Because there is a lot more centralized control.

[Conservative til I die]

Alright, fine you don't have to have the same opinion, but at least be honest and call it for what it is, a felony.

[RANGERAIRBORNE]

That is surprising- if the skilled trades aren't going to worry about this, then their jobs will soon be gone to a $6.50 -an-hour electrician from Guadalajara and a plumber from Guyaquil.

[Z-28]

Only 13 million more to go.

[txdoda]

At least in Calfornia, we benefit from them much more than we pay out. >>>>>>>


REALLY......I thought prop 187 was voted/passed in CA ???


As for the laws, no, I don't think they should be selectively enforced. They should be changed. >>>>>>


Yes, let's *change* all the immigration laws to suit our 'invaders & their home countries'. Won't that leave us with OPEN BOARDERS ???

[Conservative til I die]

I still say screw unions. It's a false dichotomy you're setting up here, that you either like unions or favor illegals.

Funny, I've never worked under the thumb of a union and I've never met an illegal on the job. Pay and benefits are good too!

[txdoda]

BOARDERS==BORDERS

(or does it matter ?? re: illegals ??)

[MinuteGal]

Just wait a day or two. Every minority and immigrants civil rights group in the country is undoubtedly now mobilizing. The counterattack will begin shortly.

To the barricades!

Uh, Wal mart isn't union. They do however sell Chinese communist products and illegal aliens do work in their stores...

[WRhine]

Compared to the likes of Tony Snow and this guy, what's his name.........Hannity....Sheesh, what a dweeb.....

Yes, both are easy to forget. Tony Snow is a complete bore afraid of any controversy and Hannity comes off as an Empty Headed Cheerleader for Bush & Co. Last Night he gushed that Bush is America's Winston Churchill appointed the presidency by God. Sean of course avoided all discussion of Bush's Open Borders Agenda during this so-called War On Terrorism.

Hannity must get all his talking points directly from the RNC and has been instructed that with Rush in the Penalty Box (maybe forever) he's got to get his shilling into high gear.

[Joe Hadenuf]

LOL! The entire country is crawling with illegals and he avoids this crisis like the plague. Same as Rush...
