[QUOTE="Overpaid Union Thug, post: 1220979, member: 198"] If the border was secure they wouldn't be here and wouldn't be hired by crony capitalists! Why is that so hard to understand? Stop the bleeding and you stop the mess. Many of these farmers and companies that are paying immigrant workers less than what they would have to pay Americans are still charging about the same for their goods or products. If the border were secure and wages were more on par with what they SHOULD be for the particular job than more Americans MIGHT take the jobs. If not they'd have to hire [U]LEGAL[/U] immigrants that were let in. Not snuck in through our porous border. The whole point of the argument to secure the border is straight forward and every American should want it. How it affects labor and prices inside our country is a valid concern but in the long run the safety of our country, which should be the priority, would be stronger. The employers that are paying illegals wages that are less than what their competitors are paying would just have to start paying more. To me paying extra for a head of lettuce is worth having a secure border. Another thing people need to realize is that many illegals take manufacturing, retail, and other jobs that even lazy Americans are willing to do by using other people's SSNs and birth certificates so they aren't even being paid less than the Americans that work similar jobs. But again…..the whole point of securing the border is for SECURITY. All of these other things are just symptoms of that problem. [/QUOTE]
