Your take on Illegal Aliens situation...

[ORGANIZATIONXIII]

the illegally alien debate pisses me off all the time I hear it..

of course, we being American's want to "keep it that way" that whole, we're better than everyone mentality and expect everyone to blend into our American society.. well its a harsh reality, but there are more people in this world than American's...

basic economics, if we were to "massively get rid" of all ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS, no matter if their hispanic of not, the AMERICAN ECONOMY WILL CRUMBLE.

why do you say that? because of the job market and how competitive it is. illegals are more inclined to take odd jobs that we, americans, feel we are better than that.. whose gonna build the houses? lay tile? yard work? house keeping? etc. the list could keep going on..

their providing the "dirty" service jobs that WE don't want to do.. like it or not, someone is going to have to do it.. so if your gonna complain, step it up and YOU stay outside hammering nails into wood all day long in 100 degree weather.. because your asking the wrong asian..

and in addition to this argument, illegals are MORE LIKELY TO WORK for lesser wages.. so WE can't complain.. yeah, their taking the jobs.. but are you gonna work for $4 bucks an hour? I think not..

Americans would do those odd jobs if the pay was there. If it weren't for illegals then those jobs would pay more and american people would do it. But being an american citizen you wouldn't be able to live off those same wages as the illegals, cause you've got things like taxes to worry about as well as healthcare and various other things.

Personally, I don't care if they stay or get shot or get deported, doesn't bother me. I just want them to pay their share for the economy by paying taxes. Could you imagine the revenue that this country could bring in if illegals payed taxes?

that is true.. if we could legally TAX their income.. we'd have so much damn more income...

but the whole job thing, if it paid more, I really don't see that really gaining much popularity, due to certain jobs that carry negative stigma's that are attached to it.. the wages wouldn't get that better, for every american there are probably 30 illegals waiting to fill his spot

man im with you on most of your points but they are making way more than 4 an hour. go to texaco on buford highway in duluth on a friday. they are cashing 300-900 checks ALL DAY. i make 9 an hour and barely clear $250 on a paycheck so im having to get a 2nd job. so 300 would be around $10 hr taxed or who knows if its untaxed
