Bc and subgenius are trapped in the Right Wing bubble, so they are out of touch with reality. Of course anyone vaguely familiar with Hispanics know that they have a wicked work ethic.
It does our country a great service to have more of them involved in our economy. Last year my wife helped a Mexican man obtain a loan at her bank. He owns a his own business doing landscaping and general manual labor. She then asked him how much he would charge us to remove a few trees and put up a fence around our back yard. He gave her a really low price, but at the end of the three day job, decided to charge us NOTHING. Why? Because he was grateful for her help at the bank, although she did nothing really out of the ordinary beyond translate for him.
Mexicans don't offer the best price for quality work simply because they're illegals who have no choice. That's all a myth. It is their work ethic and sense of fairness that has completely escaped most American companies who care about thing but profit margins.
This notion that allowing more Hispanic into the economy would add to unemployment, is ludicrous and is based only on racist presuppositions. Frankly, I'd hate to think where our economy would be without them. They are some of the most self-sufficient, hard working people on the planet. They know how to work together as a unit too, which is something most American families lack. Most Mexican families I've encountered have numerous household members employed. They tend to work low skill, manual labor jobs, but when combining their resources they manage to do well for themselves.
