[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 5114268, member: 24302"] You've got it backwards. It's not about trickle down savings to the consumer. It's about costs going up for the consumer. I'm not an advocate for illegal immigration. I don't want them bringing their entire family here. I don't want them let in like what is happening now. But there are a number of industries with chronic labor shortages that could use the help. I think a guest worker program with vetted workers that are brought in would be a great idea. The companies would have to prove they can't get or sustain local help. The workers would be closely monitored. And sent home after a brief stay. Three to six months. Look up the braceros program during WWII. And I've witnessed a few towns as you've described. Hermiston, Oregon for one. And I've lived in three towns on the border for about 6 years between them.
