We have plenty of home-grown unskilled workers here man...They are called drop-outs. Good lord, we need to import them too?

True, but not all are drop outs. A lot of people out there prefer to work with their hands, manual type labor, and many are quite intelligent, and prefer not to sit at a desk all day.

The problem is the wages no longer support manual type work due to low wage illegal labor, by the millions, in *every* industry where there is some labor involved.

Remember when roofing in the construction industry paid really good wages?

Same with almost all aspects of construction, or quality cooks, heating and air conditioning, warehouseman etc.

Industries where almost any labor is involved has been savaged by low wage illegal labor. With credible reports estimating upwards of 30 million illegals in country, not to mention anchor babies. For years now, Americans having been voting, screaming, demanding, protesting for relief, and saying enough!

It begs the question, how many millions are enough?

45 million? 60 million? 90 million?

And is this really all about cheap, low wage labor. Or is there another, sinister underlying motive here?

It *is* about slave wages. Trust me, illegal mexicans are enslaved. They're worked like slaves. However, there is one Bush in the family tree, namely:

Jeb's kid, who is gonna bring the hispanics back into our tent. Or so they believe. Wrong. Illegals vote for handouts. Karl Rove himself in '04 said if we get 40% we win the presidency. We got 42%, and this is why W so jealously protects the Hispanic vote. He figures the new adds after amnesty will keep our GOP in power.
