Illegal aliens aren't killing each other off. What they're doing is driving us to work, cleaning our places of work, babysitting our kids while we go to work, and working on our farms. They're good enough to do all the jobs we won't do, do it for less money than we'd ever allow ourselves to be paid to do that kind of work, but they're not good enough to be tax-paying American citizens? Interesting logic.

The exploitation by America of cheap foreign labor is clear and shameful. There's no hiding behind it that you can do to make the fact of it go away. Like Lou Dobbs says, if you can't control the border first, the whole enterprise is shot from the get go. At the same time, nobody wants to make any national sacrifice by raising taxes to police the borders better. We just want everything for nothing.

That a bit of a stretch to say these people do all our work. But whatever the case--it should be no excuse to turn a blind eye to a million illegal entries into the country. I dont care about the economics. This is a situation that has to be dealt with.

When is someone going to blame the corrupt government of Mexico instead of the U.S.--which gladly accepts its dirt poor?
