"Your logic is based on the misconception that employers want to hire illegals."

No. My logic is based on the correct assertion that any given company will want to pay as close to $0 as possible for labor. That is why we had to outlaw slavery and indentured servitude in this country.

If a company wanted to hire a legal citizen, we have plenty available. Your logic is based upon the lie that there is a shortage of available labor. There is not.

Much of Bushie's 'guest-worker' plan is lifted from policies in place in the UAE and Saudi Arabia. No thank you to slavery or purposely importing impoverished slums.

Your assertion is contradicted by the fact that agribusiness has agreed to a $2/hour rise in the prevailing wage on the H2A guest worker visa.

Spin that Mr. Knownothing.

Do you have a credible source or link showing the relationship of the Bush Plan to UAE?

If you weould take the time to read the bills, you would see that the Bush Plan is a compromise between Kyl-Cornyn and McCain-Kennedy.
