Well, I'm glad you're not making excuses for the illegals, and you are almost correct when you say we need "low-skilled" workers.
Please be aware that our tax money has been subsidizing higher education, and why do we need all these folks receiving bachelor degrees anyway? Let 'em work for their education, they'll appreciate it all the more.
Furthermore, the idea of minimum wage has eliminated much of the early training for young folks breaking into the job market.
In short; our government's policies have been creating the very conditions we are now lamenting.
Then there is the welfare state phenomenon; this country has set up many incentives for illegals to come here. Everything in the U.S. "free" or so it seems.
We can thank our own government for all of it.
It ain`t just the government that`s at fault, “we” deserve our share to. Lot`sa illegals are working in private homes, or are mowing grass in Beverly Hills.
