Believe it or not, that was my point. They tacitly allow illegal immigration to happen because they know States like California can't do without quite a few of them, and there is no alternative.

For cripes sakes. We can't do without people in our country illegally? Are you a public school teacher?

You've had your brain washed but good....

The cleaning companies are suspected of bringing in illegal immigrants from Eastern Europe and elsewhere.

Wonder where 'elsewhere' is. Hints: Begins with M, ends with O, shares the North American continent with the US and it's not Canada . . . .

F the grapes and rabbit food.

Man, if people want to eat that crap, let pay for it. If these people can't hire people that are here legally, they need to go to jail and lose their businesses..... Period....

What are the *millions* of illegals doing running around the concrete fields of southern California?

Are these millions of illegals harvesting concrete?

Contractors could care less about quality. Their big priority is hiring people that will work for less. It puts more money in their pockets...Who cares if nothing is square.....

This... is a joke right? OMG. Over 300 you say? Fascinating. And it took an lnvestigation of how many years? And how many investigators? And how many other cases were overlooked as "not as important" in comparison to this countrywide investigation? Hell they could've found more than 300 in my neighbors DOG house! I'm sorry, but anyone with only 25% of normal brain capacity will tell you that this smells very funny.

I know it's fun to speculate but I am not part of a lynching mob : ) Well most of the time I'm not.

Well, I guess I'm not either, but if you change your mind let me know; I'll bring some rope;)

Sub-contractor's have to deduct taxes from paychecks, and pay workers compensation benefits, etc. When they hire illegals they pay them under the table and pass on any benefits. Wal Mart has a responsibility to know who their sub-contractors hire. I worked at TRW for years and they also hired cleaning crews that can't spit out a word of English. Who cleaned our halls and bathrooms before the immigration wave of the last 5-10 years? They didn't clean themselves.....citizens did! Citizens who can no longer get those jobs because the sub-contractors are mostly hispanic and only work other hispanics. That's all we see here in Southern California.
