***''They'll let you go, and get one of these happy immigrants in your spot. They won't be late, they won't get sick, and they won't complain. They will work every unhappy American citizen out of their grass-cutting, trash-hauling, floor-sweeping jobs." ***
It isnt about being black, its about a work ethic.
Fact is the Mexicans DO show up on time and work hard when they arrive. Its a fact of life that employers will hire people who work and pass on those who wont.
People who sneak in over the border should be sent home. Those who wish to apply and enter legally should be allowed to work. Simply put. No Tickee, No washee
It's amazing that the vietnamese and other asians that came here 30 years ago, without language skills or money, have surpassed blacks in education and work productivity. You're right--it's not color--it's work ethic.
