As We worry about “Illegal Immigration” we are ignoring the third side of the triangle. [Family, Career & Home]… or… {I work Here}. Work & People are, currently, in the discussion mix. Bosses & Immigrants have been blamed. Predatory Landlords have been ignored.

Slumlords & dishonest property managers should be a Major part of the Issue. Those folks delight in preying on tenants that Pay in Cash for substandard housing & don’t complain. Those Scoundrels can Over Charge, yet under-report their Income, while they collect their rent in CASH. They quietly ignore Occupancy Codes & Safety Codes, while lining their own pockets, intimidating their tenants and ignoring the "resident owners" surrounding their Cash Cows.

I’m baffled that neither the Media nor our Elected Officials have recognized the role of Slumlords in “Border Policy”.

Slumlords are a byproduct of illegal immigration, not a source. Remove the source and the byproduct dies off.

I know what you are talking about. I got the police and INS in to bust illegals and they issued 11 citations on the owners for violations. However, the absentee landlord is in Greece and he ignored them.
