I happen to kinow there are many construction jobs where the
superintendant will not hire anyone but an illegal Mexican. Two
reasons, skilled craftsmen and lower wages. I know this from a retired
superintendant.

They have renovated very near my area at work. I can hear what goes on
every day for weeks now. Every single worker speaks exclusively
Spanish. And the Mexican foreman was the only one I heard that could
speak English at any level with the contractor and the facilities
manager at the plant. We're talking defense plant here. Bottom line at
least 50% of these guys are here illegally. They should be on the next
bus to Nuevo Laredo. If they won't even certify this job, will they
certify any job?

Send the illegals back. We have done it before. The labor situation
will right itself as the free market dictates. I guarantee there will
be people (perm residents and citizens) willing to take those
slaughterhouse jobs.

Before you take off on me about racism, I work for a Hispanic manager
and we get along great. Guess what, he agrees with me 100% because his
family all came here legally. So did my wife and all my in-laws.

I am.

What business has the state in telling you what you do to yourself?

Wow, Jack: you continue your run of being wrong.

Methadone is *not* synthetic heroin.

Actually, I've been reading up on the 14th Amendment.

I'm not so sure you have the right of it.
