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?

No I don't. I look down at those who constantly complain that these industries aren't employing the right kind of workers and have vitriol to business owners who provide good and honest goods and services, that benefit all.

Uh you do know the reason why Wal-Mart is the #1 retailer in the world. They provide goods at the cheapest prices possible.

But not by much. I love the $4 head of lettuce crowd. Balderdash!

When the immigrants take the profession over, the wages go down because these people will work for less under the table, and the job becomes less desirable.

I found it very difficult to work with people that spoke little english. Not that I dislike them, but that they sit there in a group talking amongst themselves and you feel like the odd man out.

I have had jobs like this while I was working my way through college. It was very uncomfortable, and you really don't know if they are talking badly right in front of you or not.
