I am not entirely against a fair guest worker program. However, this claim that there are jobs that Americans won't do is an outright lie. Its a way to avoid free market enterprise and flaut the marketplace laws. Quite simply, these are jobs that refuse to pay market price for labor and instead go to the black market, and even encourage the black market.

Guest worker programs for law-abiding foreigners should be encouraged.

By the way, I am a foreigner myself, but I have a BIG issue with illegal immigration / breaking the law.

EGGGGGGGGSACTLY!

I've seen too many friends and acquaintances get their businesses blown out of the water by scumbag competitors who hire a bunch of illegals. How can one compete against a competitor who hires a crew of 10, 20 or 30 illegals? And to think that by simply waving a magic wand and making these illegals all of a sudden "legal" will solve the problem is so effing stupid it makes you question the sanity of those who propose it. That "solution" is just politically expedient, nothing more. What would stop the aforementioned scumbag employer from turning around and hiring MORE illegals. The legit business owner gets SHAFTED one more time by his own damned government.
