>>>The citizens are the ones hiring them.

I can't speak for CT; but in NJ, it is the politicians that hire them, Pay for Play contract bids.

They pay the illegal workers peanuts and then bill the general fund the top going market price for the jobs they do.

Don't know where the price difference goes.

Maybe if former Gov Whitmann is a member of this forum, she might come over and explain it to us.

Oh, certainly the politicians are hiring them and often allowing them to live on government assistance (??). But we have to be honest, even middle class communities use illegal labor, if not as maids and gardeners, then at least as busboys in restaurants and day laborers. Try going to a McDonalds and you find yourself longing for the days of a stoned teenager serving you instead of someone who can't even understand "hold the ketchup."

A few towns over from where I live, in the working class community of Farmingville, NY, they are having a huge problem with illegals. These folks line up along the main intersections, blocking tarffic, and causing accidents. So how do the local politicians want to handle this? They want to build a "safehouse" where all the illegals can amass so that contractors can pick them up safely! It's insane.
