A similar situation is developing nationwide.

We don’t have enough workers. The answer is to allow for more LEGAL immigration.

I don’t have much faith in the ability of our government to function in an efficient manner but we need to let in a bunch more LEGAL immigrants, from all over the world, not just Mexico.

Our country is great because of our immigrant past. And because it was hard to get here. Only the intelligent and hard working figured out a way to get here.

But we (the people) get to decide who comes, not those rushing the border.

We need people enthusiastic about becoming Americans not ones who want to come here and turn it in their third world crap. If your religion is that adverse to our culture(pork and all) then keep your ass where you are.

We have plenty of workers...If anything, we have too many small businesses...

If you go into business counting on cheap foreign labor to fill your pockets for you, you have no business being in business in the U.S....

The retail company I work for has a really hard time hiring in quite a few cities/states these days—and we’re on the east coast & moving into the midwest.

Did you notice the amnesty folks never wanted to talk about managing more legal immigration of more desirable immigrants (by which I mean health-screened, no criminal background, sponsored by potential employers who expect to provide benefits)--but instead just wanted to do away with the law entirely--?
