This guy has labored hard and come up with garbage.

He says the ilegals displace American workers. This is wrong. The illegals displace the unemployable dregs of the workforce.

At current low unemployment the only people left are pretty much not employable given a choice. Druggies, lazy and those who can't get out of bed to come to work are the ones being replaced.

The unemployment figures do not include those that are not looking for work. Either they can't work or they choose not to. If they choose not to AND are on the public dole...they'll just have to go back to work.

It looks like much of his data comes from the Center for Immigration Studies.

"The illegals displace the unemployable dregs of the workforce."

BS! In So. Cal. they are replacing, or have replaced almost all of the construction trade working for $18-20 cash, no deductions.

20 years ago construction paid over $20/hr. with over $7 in fringes plus comp insurance and taxes were deducted.

At $20/hr the illegals are costing the contractor less than half of what a decent american worker cost 20 years ago.

By 1992 I was forced into a position of either joining the cash/illegal business or shutting down and I chose to close a 56 year old construction co. that had provided well for my parents and I for those years.
