Please explain to us all just where it says you have a right to hire illegal workers?
No one has the right to a job, but they do have the RIGHT not to have to compete with criminals. Why can't you understand this? Is your mind clouded by some sort of bias?
This is so true. In this part of the country history binds us to Mexico. It's a proud part of our culture and heritage. But people stampeding across the border with no regard for our immigration laws is not what America is about. They are dragging us down economically and socially and bankrupting our medical and educational resources. It's a sad thing to watch.
Agreed. The lowest bidding almost always has the lowest quality.
I'm waiting to read the explanation that the ILLEGAL ALIEN has a right to a job here.
You are right about this.
Most likely because he profits for illegal labor.
See what you started?...:-)
I'm pretty sure you'll have a very very long wait.
I ask again - where did NellieMae say that these people were criminals or illegal? Was it in between the lines somewhere?
I made a great living writing software...
Now they do it in India for half what I made.
Am I on freerepublic.com whining about it? NO,
I went out and learn a new trade so I can compete.
Folks can whine and complain until they are blue in the face but it won't change a thing. Adapt or perish... It's your call... good luck!
I think its possible. This problem won't end until people like that get treated like the criminals they are. I want those that hire illegal aliens in jail..
and that sort of attitude is precisely how our country is on a road of self-destruction...because of folks who value their "comforts" before what is "right". Your attitude if reflected in that comment is as your generation says "sucks"...
As do I!
I'm also in the printing industry and you are indeed correct - the printing industry has benefitted from the internet.
Knew it would happen.
You must be a pretty lousy software engineer. I'm still in the business and I'm making twice what I was 5 years ago.
Exactly. If these people are illegals, then go raise hell with the politicians until you get satisfaction. Making yourself into a whining victim is unbecoming.
Eventually Gonzo will get the message and a few employers will do the perp walk, live on CNN. A drop in the bucket? Probably.
