You are an idiot frag. (no offence) Illegal immigrants completely f*ck the LEGAL AMERICAN unskilled laborers. Noone wants to dig ditches at $5 an hour. The reason that you will only get paid $5 an hour to dig a ditch is cuz the illegal immigrants are willing to do it for that much. Digging ditches in the hot sun SHOULD pay lets say $10 an hour, but the illegals are willing to do it for $5. Legal americans WOULD do the sh*tty jobs if they paid what the job is worth.
In turn these unskilled AMERICANS turn to government assistance because of this, completely f*cking the economy. Not to mention all of our tax dollars pay for their healthcare and education. In turn, they don't pay a dime in taxes. You are wrong Frag.

That's also the reason you pay $10 for groceries instead of $20. Like I said, our economy can't handle 2X dollars for shopping, since we are f*cking hooked on shopping, as a nation.
And besides, Illegals get NOTHING in return, what the hell you talking about healthcare and education?? They get none of that, lard-ass lazy americans on wellfare do however.
Now I do agree that illegals have a negative impact on "unskilled" Americans. But they are not out of a job by any means, there will always be demand for heavy/inconvenient labor. Legal Americans have rights however, minimum wage for example. Illegals work for less than this, making the products you buy cheaper.
A sudden influx in prices would make our economy come crashing down, especially since the skyrocketing gas prices.
The last thing we need is a 1930's style depression, unskilled workers be damned (I'm borderline socialist, mind you, but the economy of our country is holding the world as we know it together, thus more important than any tax/wage issue).
That's the way I see it anywhoo... your opinons are welcome Shlonky, just refrain from calling me an idiot plz
