the $10 an hour he paid 10 men doesn't comply with the state's prevailing wage law

I didn't know the "prevailing wage law" applied to those illegally in this country. Naive, I guess.

Isn’t that the argument against immigration? That if you pay the prevailing wage, then you will find citizens to do the job?

Two interesting things here. Either you really can’t find citizens to do these jobs or the often-repeated statement that people will pay more for citizen laborers is false. Or both.

I didn't either. ;) It seems that taxpayers are getting screwed, again! Who said illegals have it bad?
