So this whole Guest Worker talk is just a bunch of government lies about their true thoughts on the true effectiveness for such programs? I hope that everything the Government thinks or does is not just a conspiracy to you.

No, here is the deal.

Right now, both illegals and businesses love the status quo. These rallies are about the gov't not upsetting the apple cart, not about reform.

The businesses love this because they get illegals who will work for less money, no regulations, not benefits, people who are less likely to file a claim if injured on the job. The businesses don't pay FICA or workers comp on these people.

The illegals love it because they work for cash and send the same home to Mexico for when they go back. On 5K, they can live like a king.

Without strict border enforcement, this plan will only encourage millions of more illegals to undermine the new "guests" who will now demand a pay increase since they will now have to pay taxes. The businesses who want cheap labor will just demand cheaper labor in the form of new illegals.

That is why I said that.
