Our economy needs their labor like we need oil from the ME.
America was able to function before we were invaded with illegals and we can do it again. There are plenty of folks in this country who are willing to do menial labor.
You say we need more illegals, I say we need more Hutterites:
even if we did need the labor, we could drop anchor at any friendly third world port in the world and fill up cargo ship after cargo ship with people who
1 -- would be willing to work for a fraction of what Mexicans are paid
2 -- would be thankful for the opportunity, respectful of our laws and traditions, and would be willing to do whatever was necessary to integrate into our society
what is patently false is that we depend on and must have Mexicans laborers. Yet that is what the two presidentes (Bush and Fox) believe.
