But we don’t have $10 lettuce, right?

LoL. We have had Mexican migrant workers picking vegetables for decades. They are a drop in the bucket of the 12 million illegals here. The rest of them have come here in the last 6-7 years and are working constrruction and factory jobs so that the owners of Toll Brothers, Lennar, NV Homes, Hormel, Swift, et.al. can make more profits while charging the same high prices for their goods. Last year Toll Brothers' average profit per house was over $90,000. Yet they can't afford to pay American workers decent wages. Riiiiiiight.

I believe we are also going to find out that a large percentage of those who took out subprime mortgages in the last 3 years were illegals.
