They are not "immigrants." They are law breakers and invaders.
And they idea that they are needed as workers is a rather weak way to say that their law breaking employers wish to become rich on the backs of defacto indentured Mexican servants.
The last I checked, a slave economy was basically defeated during President Lincolns tenure.
If the so called "employers" of these invaders would offer good wages , then there would be no demand for Mexican invader workers. Jobs would be filled by Americans then, who would not cower in the substandard housing of their employers, and draw on Social Service resources bought and paid for by taxpayers. Most Mexican workers do not pay taxes.
I for one would be very willing to pay extra for the produce Mexicans pick, just to make the wages offered higher, and then hire genuine immigrants and other American blue collar workers.

This just kills me.
When I was a kid, all of my friends went to pick rasberries all summer. It was hard work but fun being out in the air with pals. They gave a quarter a pint.
Now, according to MSNBC, these people are being paid 6.75 an hour. Geez oh Pete, where do my kids and I sign up??? Being a homeschooling mom, a picking job would be perfect for us. None are available in our area. I've asked where we pick blueberries during the summer. They just don't need workers, they have enough.
