If they line up for Wal-Mart jobs, they can line up to pick fruit and vegetables. Maybe they can do the jobs that the Mexicans are stealing.

Ignorance is never pretty, and yours is downright ugly.

The Mexicans aren't "stealing" this work. Americans stopped doing the work in about 1971, when the Great Society programs began making it more lucrative to go on welfare, than to do agricultural labor. It's still that way. Why do really hard work, when you don't have to?

My own observation comes from the fact that, prior to that tim, the schools would always have an influx of white kids in the fall who left after the picking was done. They were the kids of migratory laborers who followed the crops around. After 1971, they no longer showed up ... and not too long after that, the Mexicans started showing up instead.
