My white American born Citizen son can't get a part time job because illegals are filling the slots.

Is that so? My daughter with a tested IQ of 68 (70 is the borderline for mental retardation) has been working since she was 16 years old. However, she doesn't sit on her lazy ass and whine about "not being able to get work," either. She actually works three jobs, one as a contractor (she cleans offices), one as a hostess in a restaurant, and one as a bagger in a grocery store (just "promoted" to cashier..., I am very proud of her). She competes with latinos for two of these jobs and she works because she is a better and harder worker than they are.

On the other hand, I put out a bid for work on my house to 4 different contractors. Two never called back. One white guy bid a reasonable bid, and one bid under just a little bit. Three guys from El Salvador were low, but I wasn't sure. Martin called me and said "If you don't like our work, you cut the price in half! We want the job!" That impressed me. They showed up, ready to start work at 6:30 a.m. and laid tile from then till 10:00 at night. I wanted to buy them a beer and they said "lo siento pero no bebimos. Somos Christianos." Rather than argue with them about whether Christians could enjoy a beer, I just said "well, if you are going to refuse my beer, I have to send you home. I have to get some sleep." Back at 6:30 the next a.m. A great job, cleaned up all the mess, better job than I have ever seen, and I used to be a contractor many years ago. It is not just "underbidding." It is pride in workmanship and a desire to excel that gets work.

I have had many experiences like this. The crap people post here about hispanics being rapists, drunks, thieves, murderers and stuff is just reprehensible, and they wonder why I "play the race card." Right. Who is playing what?

Best of luck to your "white American born Citizen son" in getting a job.

OK...nice straw-woman there...

See, when you are disabled, retarded, ect....the Gub'Mint gives REAL NICE business incentives to hire them!

See, Les_Misrerables son is NOT of a minority/protected/priviledged class...there are NO bonuses for businesses to hire able bodied White kids.

Sorry about your kid, I'm even sorrier that her parent is "supposedly" more capapble than her, but understands less apparently.

I always love hearing the stories about how hispanics are not just the same as us American citizens theyre better!

Excellent. Thank you so very much for proving my point without a shadow of a doubt. Were these people here legally? I doubt it. Do you think that job you offered had a 50% cushion of labor charge? (I seriously doubt it) So this kind of points to a scenario where Jose'and Jose-B were not here legally. Now your complicit in tax fraud. If you yourself had more than a luke warm 70 IQ you would have smelled something fishy about this business deal. So basically, you pitted a few legit business men (who's estimates were all in the same ballpark) against some scumbag tax cheat business guy...to your advantage. You're just as bad as the tax cheat / criminals crawling across our borders. I'll bet dollars for donuts Martin wasn't running his business legally and paid his indentured servants off the books, thus enabling himself to lop 50% profit off the top. No LEGAL labor based business that I have ever heard of has that percentage of profit.

Once again, thank you for proving my point. I gave you the rope, and you hung yourself nicely with it.

Congratulations on your daughter's successes. She is excelling for someon ewith a low IQ and you should be proud of her. Some are not so fortunate even though they don't sit on their ass. Is your point that because someone is unemployed they must be sitting on their ass? Your logic seems a little messy there. You in fact are part of the problem if you hire illegals so don't be so parsimonious about the facts that illegals are a drain on society. You are helping them. Talk about hypocrites.
