The great Wal-mart would drive right over the top of American families and our flag for another 1% profit margin, while pushing Red Chinese products....

It's been common knowledge that Wal-mart has employed illegal aliens for years...

Is this an orchestrated timing? Give the right a bone while at the same time push through amnesties in Congress?

I worked at Wal-Mart in 1997 and 1998 and made comments at that time that all of the stores I went in had cleaning crews from the same country, many of which didn't speak English.

The entire cleaning industry is filled with immigrants, both legal and illegal. Of course, janitorial work is a low-paying entry job that requires very little English -- it's a natural for both types of immigrants.

If college kids can get illegal I.D.'s to get into bars, how hard do you think it is for illegal immigrants to get the I.D.'s for the I-9 forms that employers are required to keep? But beyond that, since many poorer Americans look down upon janitorial work, immigrants fill in the labor demand. It's a powerful incentive for janitorial managers to not look to closely at the paperwork if they want to get the work done.

I find it interesting that they seem to be deporting the illegal Eastern Europeans when they often don't deport the illegal Latin Americans. It'd be interesting to get more details about the exact nationality breakdown on those caught.

It is also common knowledge that you support the striking unions.
