But hey, if you like increased crime, and increased urban problems so your precious employers can continue to have access to cheap labor, then do not cry when the politics of areas that have been severely impacted shifts to the left, as we have seen happen to California.

Trying to change the subject, I see. But according to your previous post, the immigration status of the folks involved was not the apparent cause, because the neighborhoods "went" regardless of whether the new folks were legal or illegal. So if you really believe what you said, then you must attribute the decline of these neighborhoods to something other than immigration status.....

Again, employers who hire illegals do not deserve to be in business, and to me, they are no better than "independent businessmen" who sell illegal drugs. Your arguements do not wash.

If apples = illegal drugs in your world, there's no hope for a rational conversation.

Apples arent illegal, using illegal labor to pick them is ILLEGAL. The farmers that use ILLEGAL labor to pick crops are no better in terms of morals that drug dealers that sell ILLEGAL drugs. Illegal means Illegal, and no man has a right to pick and choose what laws he has to follow, especially when use of illegal labor is technically considered a fellony.

As for the neighborhoods I mentioned, while its not politically correct to say this, I will say outright that the flood of illegal, and yes, in many cases even legal, immigrants who are mostly uneducated did cause a severe decline in the neighborhoods I mentioned, but of course, Free Republic is thankfully not about being politically correct.
