"Michael Bryant" wrote in message ... From: (Brian) There are non-Americans here who also have jobs, some of them illegals. And they send U.S. $$$'s back to wherever instead of spending them in our shopping malls, our pharmacies, and our Blockbusters. But I don't hear you complaining about illegals or the amount of money leaving America. Wow, more stellar reasoning! First, I've never supported illegal workers replacing US workers. Attacking Bush outsourcing hardly means I support illegal workers. Duh. I don't support illegal workers replacing US workers, either.... however, the predominance of jobs taken by Mexican immigrants, legal or illegal, are agricultural jobs for low pay that you could not get the "average US worker" to take, and therefor would simply not get done otherwise. I know this from practical experience over a long period of time (my teens and beyond).. I was the only non-Mexican, non Native American worker in any of the fields I ever worked... we had people in town that griped about the Mexicans taking away jobs, but when they were offered those jobs, year after year, before the migrants came in, they always turned them down... BTW, Bush is now back to discussing a blanket amnesty for illegal Mexican immigrants, for the very reasons listed above, among others. |
