Sure -- workers who commit felony document fraud and whose employers break every labor law yet both are rewarded for their crimes --- I bet you never provided your cheap servants any health insurance benefits but figure the government can just raise taxes to do that for you. Socialism --- but you make more money than an honest employer who follows the law. Greed --- the love of money is the root of all evil and people will destroy their country for the love of money. You hire illegal labor --- quick profits for yourself is your real reason to support unlimited illegal immigration.

I believe the words I wrote have hit a nerve for you FITZ. You are completely discombobulated. You're all over the place. Either I'm a greedy Capitalist or I'm a Socailist. You can't have it both ways.

My motivations are transparent to anyone willing to read my posts. I like cheap labor because I like $1 double cheeseburgers at McDonalds, and I like a clean bathroom in my office. The Mexicans are perfectly willing to work these jobs for low pay. They appreciate the work, and I am happy they are getting the same opportunity that my great grand parents got. If people like yourself had been in control in the 1900's I would not live in America. Most likely my grandparents would have been rounded up and sent to Nazi concentration camps in the 1930's for a shower. The Mexican people are not blood thirsty killers bent on destroying this nation. They are children of God who yearn for a better life for their families.

The PaleoCons are the greedy ones. They want to keep others away from America's freedom. Shame on the Paleos.

Foreigners are more than welcome to come to the United States. All that Americans are asking is for them to come here legally. I don't think that is asking too much.

I believe you made an earlier comment to someone else a request, in effect, for some references.

Here

Asked what they think is a “desirable” number of legal immigrants per year, most Americans (76%) would prefer immigration be kept below current levels (i.e., they say they would like to see less than one million per year admitted).

In fact, a majority (58%) would prefer fewer than 300,000 enter per year.

Opinions vary somewhat by age, with older Americans taking a harder line against legal immigration; in fact, one in four of those age 65+ (25%) would prefer to see no legal immigrants enter per year, whereas only one in twenty (5%) of those 18-24 have the same view.

Your tedious chearleading for unfettered immigration conveniently ignores all the social costs and security risks that current immigration policies generate. If you could show me some articles that effectively refute Heather MacDonald's scholarship I would really appreciate it.

Here are some more links to Heather MacDonald.

Yes it seems you can have it both ways --- Capitalist because you make high profits for your cheap labor, Socialist because that's how you believe your cheap labor needs to be supported. These people couldn't work for you if they had to pay their own health care and education --- but since you feel that is the responsibility of the suckers -- the taxpayers, you believe in the socialization of those.

They do the same thing in Mexico --- they enjoy an endless amount of very cheap labor --- but the top 10% is doing extremely well --- the only thing is it has caught up with them so now they need to get rid of their surplus of cheap labor.
