So you agree with Mexicans replacing Americans at factories and with manufacturing moving out of the US?I agree with legal immigrants getting jobs that Americans WON'T do. My wife worked in a cotton mill. 80% of applicants failed the drug test KNOWING they were going to take it. The only workers they could get were immigrants. It's not the employer's fault that Americans won't work.

Read #17. This is not free or open or fair business practice. A friend of mine works for such a company in Silicon Valley, he's Korean, and a legal citizen and he is planning on leaving because the abuse the company shells out on workers, but these guys on visas can't leave. So they work 80 hour work weeks for 30K, not because the market dictates the cost of labor but because they are used as indentured servants, legalized slaves. From what he said, most of these guys are all but burnt out and don't have any life or see their families but have no choice...it's called white collar sweat shops. Welcome to the new reality.
