My 2 cents worth,

Everyone hollers about how much it would cost us if we lost all of the illegal immigrant workers, who would fill those jobs etc. If we added up all the money we pay out in health care, welfare, food stamps, law enforcement, prisons, , education,signs in Spanish, and all the other little add ons; we could afford to pay anyone who would take those jobs about three times what is being offered to do them now. The only people who really profit from these workers, are businesses who hire them under the table. Not only do they get away with paying them less than minimum wage, in most cases; they don't have to match their social security payments, unemployment, or health care costs. We get to pay for all that. There are millions of people, a lot of them more educated, and just as willing to work, waiting in line for the privilage of being allowed to immigrate to this country. If someone was allowed, or just decided to cut into line in front of you, how would you like it? The president of Mexico, in a speech in a European country, bragged that they are taking over America without ever firing a shot. I'm a believer.
