"Republicans want cheap labor. That is what is so wrong."

Actually, I am more of an Employer than I am a Republican, and I admit to preferring less-expensive, hard-working labor to over-priced, lazy-arsed ne'er-do-wells on my payroll. My FRiend...honestly, do you actively go out and look to hire the most expensive labor you can find for a particular project?!

IMHO, the fact that you don't doesn't make you a bad person...MUD

I prefer to hire those who are qualified for the job. I am willing to pay them what they are truly worth. In other words, if they are worth 15 dollars per hour, I will pay them. I don't believe in hiring cheap labor because I don't believe in slavery. And it is in fact slave labor when you hire an illegal alien to do labor that is below the minimum labor standard wage. It is not only slavery but it is illegal, indeed. As much as I have respect for the fact that these illegals are willing to work for cheaper labor, I am also not willing to take advantage of them because I want them to become legal citizens and I want for them to advance themselves beyond the poverty level. They cannot advance themselves econmoically when Americans are using them for cheaper labor. That is very wrong, my friend.

I am not a cheap person. Quality means more to me than quantity! I value quality labor.
