That's right. But, the citizens here should be prepared to step up to the 'requirements' of having LEGAL people to do their short-work. Essentially, the bottom line is that immigrants, legal or illegal or not, are simply NOT needed in this country. Regardless of the pounding bleeding-heart crap about diversity is good for the nation, there are ENOUGH workers AND the capacity to pay the going rate (whatever that will float up to). Citizens here just need to realize that the problem of immigrants brings with it problems that are not IMMEDIATELY recognizable or effective. It's only later, when they eschew America's standards, language, and history while spending their every waking moment figuring out how to take advantage of bringing grandma or grandpa over to take advantage of reciprocal SS agreements etc. Go take a look at a social security office sometime and see exactly who's there....it sure ain't little old ladies with gray hair that look like your aunt. It's foreigners and young women and our own layabouts trying to SSI or disability...
That is simply not true. Our unemployment rate is at a level that economists used to consider "full employment." If you took millions of illegal and legal immigrants out of the labor pool, there would not be anyone to replace them.

Immigrants in this country are generally younger than Americans overall. So, your claim simply makes no sense.
