Of course, this is the exact reason the north went to war with the south. The economic advantage the south had in terms of cheap labor. Now, the US is utilizing extremely cheap labor to produce their goods. How is this any different from the pre-civil war south? The difference is that the North used the economic leverage from the South to strengthen itself, so that it was ultimately able to defeat the South.
Now, we're letting "the South" (mexico and especially china) use the economic leverage to strenghen themselves. When the war comes, it'll be china that wins, not us.

Your whole post is nonsense except the part about you not being good at flaming people. You bore me. This exchange is over, take your last cheap shot if you wish. The exchange was over long before your take-my-marbles-and-go-home snivel. But thanks for confirming that you finally recognized it too. Mr. Evans bested you, he devastated your argument, he blew through all the clever (by half) traps you laid for him, and he did so without even breaking a sweat. So it's no surprise that you're so upset over it.
But at least be honest enough to admit that he does't "bore" you. He frustrates you; he upsets you; he even angers you. But if there's one thing that's obvious from your compulsive interaction with him, it's that he does not "bore" you.
Just an observation from the sidelines...

What are these jobs that "Americans won't do" and who are these Americans that won't do them? And why won't they do them? Why is it that Mexicans can them and live? I don't understand. What are these Americans that won't them doing instead?

I agree 100%.
Welfare enables folks to turn down menial jobs.
I'd rather have an assistance program with the criteria of some job - even picking asparagus.

Posting under two names is counter to site guidelines. So is making bogus accusations.
