You’re making the false assumption that the trucker can only do that particular job.

Lets say there are two drivers that drive trucks, you enter our country making 5 dollars per hour, and the American driver is making $24 per hour with benefits. How exactly is this type of competition good for the American driver?

the American trucker may be worse off, that is unfortunate, but American society is made better off

No we won't be better off pal. You think the American trucker above will keep his standard of living if he has to come down to the Mexican truckers income level? Because that is exactly, eventually what will happen.

You’re making the false assumption that the trucker can only do that particular job.

Oh I see pal, were going to now train the 50 year old American trucker to be a senior aerospace engineer? Or is he going to apply at Wal-Mart?

Are we all going to be flipping burgers eventually. Oh wait, the illegals have those jobs.
