Sounds about right. But then we’d be obliged to create a sustainable 100% first world economy. Your hamburger might cost more, and you might be doing your own landscaping and housekeeping.[/quote]
Hogwash! Just a couple of decades ago, American kids were doing these jobs. It’s high time we give them the same chance we had to work in an entry-level job and gain some work experience.
What we “save” by using illegal labor, we spend on their education, prison, infrastructure, legal, housing, etc. costs. Labor performed by illegal labor is only “cheap” for their employers. The rest of us pick up the tab (and suffer the reduced quality of life) in order to sustain the employers’ profits.[/quote]
I think the problem here is the complicated processes one has to go through to work in this country. We need to make it much more simple. Show up, sign your name, pay your taxes.
