The reason the year was so tough is that there is so many illegals now that supply (illegals) have overwhelmed demand (citizens). Simple economics.
Now go home Jose.
That's true --- there are more illegals than there is work --- and millions more packing up to come --- they're starting to come from Brazil now --- but there is a finite number of jobs. It was a real bad year for illegals here ---- and they can't go back because things are getting worse for them in Mexico --- so once they find out about our welfare system that's where they turn.
