Tell your acquaintance that a percentage of illegal aliens are visa overstays who work as professionals. It is disgustingly easy for them to work through temp agencies for salaries on which that Americans because they pay no or partial taxes... just like illegals who work construction, landscaping, farms, etc.
In addition per PEW 8 million illegal aliens have jobs. Note tht is 8 million out of 20 - 40 million illegals in the US.
major typo; should read:
It is disgustingly easy for them to work through temp agencies for salaries on which Americans can’t survive because they pay no or partial taxes...
