On KFI640 AM in L.A. right now I'm listening to this Manhattan Institute broad on the radio saying we need the illegals to do the jobs Americans won't do like construction, agriculture and busboy work. She dismisses the idea that those jobs still worthwhile as entry work for high school and college students.

She also denies the 3 million number from Time Magazine. She says maybe 500,000 come yearly. She also says it's too hard to prosecute employers. She says industries would collapse without illegals because 70%, 80% are illegals in agriculture. She says we'll need 10 million new persons to fit low end jobs so we need the illegals. She wants to give illegals bargaining power.

Good grief. She also claims illegals are paying more in than they take out because while they use stolen social security numbers they never take that money back out of the system. Ugh. She insists they "grow the economy" but admits that on a state-by-state level it is a problem. When did we become a national monolith? Yikes. She's insane.

This is absolute Barbara Streisand.

First off, this ruse that "Americans do not want to do these jobs" is a fat lie. It is just that the illegals are being hired because they are cheaper - Americans still want those jobs, especially in construction, restaurants and yes, even agriculture. A huge cop-out lie.

The problem has nothing to do with employers. The problem lies with THE U.S. GOVERNMENT who is sanctioning the illegals, at the expense of our tax dollars. And we know for a fact, that at least 75% of the money paid these people is going BACK TO MEXICO, and IS NOT CONTRIBUTING to the US economy. Vincente Fox is making out like a bandit (well chosen word) since the money pouring into his country is the second largest money-maker in Mexico.

OK, who is sleeping with who?? Why is our government sanctioning the HUGE DOUBLE STANDARD allowing law-breakers to not only flourish in this country, but giving them our tax dollars for BENEFITS????
