Well, just have your brickmason husband start his own brickmason firm and hire only Americans. Be part of the solution.

Now here's a guy with answers...

You mean like the steel workers that started up their own steel plant? - Or the auto workers that are building their own japanese death traps?

Man, this protectionism is killing us!

Free trade was the key demand of the Communist Manifesto, get with it!

Good idea, Sam. But the brickmason company goes in as a subcontractor. The boss of the overall job calls the shots. NellieMae's husband will not be able to compete with the low prices/bids of other subs who use mexican illegals...

That's the whole point.

Took the words right out of my fingers.

Let her husband be a general contractor and find work to support a couple of crews.

Hire anyone with a tax ID number.
