Trying to remember what a Liberal friend of mine/devoted NPR listener said a few weeks ago when I railed against uncontrolled borders and mass invasion from Mexico and God knows where else: 'Where's the compassion for these people? We're all immigrants. If they were Irish or English you wouldn't say a word.' When I asked if it didn't bother him that they were working for slave wages, that many had become fact indentured servants -- immoral and illegal -- he had no answer.
A second friend then said he'd heard of more than one company...in Eastern MA...with a policy of supplying llegals' apartments. They'd state a certain salary, then take out rent, utilities, leaving very little for food. Kraft Foods in Littleton -- shuttle bus to and from Lowell everyday. The workers look Brazilian, but could be Mexican or Costa Rican. Police raided a Lowell apt. house a few months ago and found 900 illegals. One room was partitioned off as a fake document center -- blanket over a rope -- with the wherewithal to fake any US ID document you'd ever need.
