From the article :

Some families squeeze together in a single bedroom and rent their living room couch for $50 a week to a laborer.

''I do a lot of home visits, and I've seen eight to 10 people in one bedroom. The landlords turn a blind eye as long as they get paid,'' said Christina Schoendorf, who runs a youth club.

Is this your vision of America?

We have a lot of that here-- I've seen where there's that many in the bedrooms but also that many sleeping in the living room. They only need to do that until they get their amnesty ---then they qualify for HUD housing and can get a lot more comfortable at taxpayer expense.
