What's really sad about this whole cheap labor issue is there are enough illegal immigrants hanging out on corners and lots in Southern California to handle much of the low-skilled, low-paid jobs in the entire country. Don't believe me? Come for a visit and I'll show you the thousands of day laborers just standing around.
So all you open borders types, just how many do we need to mow our lawns, pick our crops, watch our kids, serve our food, etc.? Yes, I know, they're just looking for a better life. So is most of the planet's population. Where do we draw the line for admittance to the American Dream? 4,000,000 a year? 10,000,000 a year? 63,000,000 a year? 172,000,000 a year? 835,000,000? A billion?
At what point does that "better" standard of living begin to deteriorate? What's the number, folks? There's some 6,000,000,000 people on this planet and many, if not most of them, live below our alleged poverty line...which includes a moderate house, a car, television, phone, and other conveniences. So how many? I'm sick of all the stupid racist arguements...I want to know how many our society can absorb before we become what they are fleeing. I'd also like to see a legitimate agruement as to why a society doesn't have the right to maintain its designated standards.
