Around 95 a huge wave of illegals came in.
The plants expanded. Wages went from around 15/hour in the 80s to 10/hour in the mid 90s.
That's when I worked there.
Today wages are around 7/hour.
There are two meat packing plants in DC employing around 2-3000 each. In a town of 25-30,000.
half the plant workforce is straight from Mexico-Nortenos mostly.
A Quarter is Guatemalen/Salvadoran and the remainder Anglos or Mexican-Americans in management.
Since the human tsunami first appeared in 95 we have built 4 new schools and 2 new jails, with a declining tax base because anyone who can flee has fled...hehe.
It's a friggin nightmare. I got out of there with college-same with some of my relatives.
The old relatives are stuck there living in Tijuana, Kansas.

Your last post to me hurts my heart. I hope the people of Kansas rise up to this invasion.
