Agreed and this issue transcends partisan politics. I have concern about the political impact, i.e., increasing the number of Dem voters making us a permanent minority, but I am more concerned about the long term effect upon our economy, national identity and shared sense of endeavor. We are sowing the seeds of our own destruction.

Also, a lot of these earnings are being sent out of the country, over $20 billion a year to Mexico, exceeding their revenue from oil sales, and don't benefit the US economy. The low wages also depress American wages at the lower end of the income scale, thus increasing the wealth gap and reducing the middle class. If it continues, we will have the profile of a third world country.
