"They're not just taking jobs Americans don't want. They've taken over the construction industry completely "

===

These things are the result of mandatory minimum wage laws.

If we stopped welfare, stopped minimum wage laws and stopped over regulating businesses, and allowed the market to determine the wages, things would eventually become balanced. But people born in the US, brought up on the liberal slogans, think they are "entitled" to things, instead of recognizing that they have to "earn" what they get. That is why employers hire illegal Mexicans, they are tired of the US primadonnas.

Mexican immigrants, be they legal or ILLEGAL have nothing to so with welfare being in the state it is. They have everything to do with putting countless hard working American construction workers out of work and depressing the wages of those who still do.
