When wages become sufficiently depressed so that native born and illegals are earning about the same, then American employers will turn to American workers.

Before I retired, I worked for the local phone company. When I went into new neighborhoods, the bricklayers were Mexican, the painters, the roofers, carpenters, electricians, sheetrockers, and floortile and carpet layers, were all Mexican. I know most, if not all were illegal. For some reason the concrete guys were mostly black. All these jobs were good paying jobs, not minimum wage. This is my reference when someone says these jobs are some nobody wants. Nobody wants to pick lettuce, but my whole generation grew up as carpenters, painters,and bricklayers and such.

Union labor would probably be $25-$30 an hour, but most of these are $12-$18 now. If nothing else, I know some teens and young marrieds that would love to have these jobs.
