You are on psychedelic drugs to thusly characterize the work that illegal aliens do. They are in many sectors of construction. We have a home building boom partly to accomate all these new legal/illegal immigrants. They are working all over the hotel industry.

BTW: Many legal immigrants are picking vegetables and cleaning toilets

Th ad hominems from the Tancredo faction begin, and what are you going to do, hold a gun up to native born Americans heads and tell them you have to take the roofing job in 100 degree heat or become a housekeeper.

And what's wrong with roofing or being a housekeeper? My brother-in-law is a snow-plower. Is that so much different? Do you look down your nose at roofers?

No, all jobs would not be taken by native Americans. Some would be replaced by technology. But many would. And, yes, prices on many goods---tomatoes, hotel rooms, etc.---would go up. So?

In fact we can use a few million illegal aliens. But not the 15 million we have and not GW Bush's scamnesty plan.

You need a sense of proportion! Snap out of it! You don't strike me as a total dunce.

Is your faith in the free-market forces of capitalism really so weak?
