...at the wages being offered by American employers. I guess us 'lazy' Americans just don't like living with 15 other people in a one bedroom apartment like many Mexican illegal aliens do so that they can survive on what's left of their meager salaries after sending a big chunk of it back home to their families in Mexico.
Start thinking like a capitalist instead of like Willie Green. If you owned a business your primary objective is to make a profit. Ergo, you're going to duck our massive tax laws and regulations and hire illegals under the table.
I'm not saying what the employers are doing is good, but blame the Congresscritters. They're the ones who created the business climate that forced businesses to go underground and hire illegal aliens instead of paying higher wages and health care benefits to American workers.
