Whenever someone brings up this arguement, I always say “Hey, why don’t we just bring back slavery?” I love to see them backpaddle away from that arguement. It achieves all the same cheap labor goals that they want, but they only disagree with the moniker...

illegals are *cheaper* than slaves. an illegal dies at your workplace? oh well, just get another one. disposable rental slaves that you don't have to house. What's not to like for a businessman?

Southern cracker plantation owners have been unfairly stereotyped. They are morally no better or worse then a sweatshop owner, or farmer hiring illegals today.

I hope that you understand that slavery is quite different than voluntary labor. You do understand that, right?

Really? Show me where someone has backpeddled. Because slavery has nothing to do with slaves running to the plantation and desperately trying to get there. Nothing to do with being free of leg irons and chains. Nothing to do with being paid a wage.
