When I studied in Mexico I didn't like what I saw --- they have very separate classes of people there --- based a lot on race. You never saw the college kids of the elites waiting tables or working in hotels ---- which was very common of the middle class here --- I waited tables myself paying my way through college --- and most everyone else was doing the same. I've lived where white middle class housewives would work part time cleaning motels for extra spending money --- to me there's nothing wrong with that ---- it's not like some separate class of exploited people needs to be brought in to do jobs because we suddenly think we're too good for those jobs.

Look, I'm against this abomination of an immigration boondoggle as anyone. But I won't stand by while people attack a very good friend of mine by accusing him of being a slave owner and exploiting illegals!

Can you show me one statement Carlo made where he in any way denigrated those whom he employed? No you can't!! He only had praise for their work ethic and respect for their situation. You may consider that exploiting, I consider it being a decent human being.
