I wouldn't say that illegals don't want a good education for their kids, or imply that they're bad at all

Children of Mexican illegals who end up in American big cities generally ruin our schools. Draw your own conclusions.

The Corporate Conservatives and Corporate Liberals are on the same boat with this tacit policy.

True...and - surprisingly - I'm not sure I can criticize them. Markets are now global and American companies must compete with foreign companies which use cheap labor. The best way to do that is to employ cheap labor.

I posted as I did to point out who's suffering from globalization - American workers - and who's benefitting - foreign workers.

There's also a very disturbing statistic; the wealthiest 5% of Americans, and especially the wealthiest 1%, have been increasing their wealth hugely over the last few years while the rest of us have been losing ground.

Statistically true, and many factors to it. Higher immigration rates on the low end, decline of corporate inhibitions of board members of public companies rating their own worth with ever increasing salaries on the high end, fueled by the end of the corporate culture wherein the boardmember expects to serve the company for life.
