what do you know, white people dont want jobs that the mexicans and guatamelans had, even when they dont have a job.
i laughed at the convicts and probationers saying **** it and walking off after 30 minutes.
11,080 farm positions are open right now in georgia and these owners would go bankrupt if it wasnt for illegal immigrants working in the fields, because whites wont do that type of work, even if they are unemployed.
btw, im not in favor of illegal immigration.
its interesting though how people say all these jobs will open up, and they'll be scooped up quick because americans will do the jobs illegals do.
well thats not the case.
the sense of entitlement, especially upon whites, that i'm too good for this job, it doesn't make enough for me, even when they are unemployed, and parents who will let them sit at home all day and do nothing, is why this country continues to spiral around the toilet.
every person on unemployment in georgia should be out in the field working, period.
As others have stated, these farmers will only go bankrupt if they choose not to avail themselves of the unlimited visas our government provides. The decision is theirs.

A farm in Eastern Washington is employing hundreds of Jamaican workers to replace the illegal immigrants it lost after an Immigration and Customs Enforcement investigation last year.
Gebbers Farms in Brewster, WA, which grows apple and cherry trees, is hiring 300 workers from Jamaica through the H-2A visa program, issuing temporary agricultural visas.
Only 3% of illegal aliens pick crops. Why? The answer is simple. It is backbreaking, tedious, and is frequently performed in the sweltering heat. So, why would you expect citizens of any race/ethnicity to choose this line of work when even illegal aliens don’t want it?
The jobs you referenced as “opening up” are not those working in the fields. Rather, in the construction, manufacturing, hospitality, and restaurant industries. Heck, many illegals use stolen identities to land jobs working in offices for major corporations, as well as our local and federal governments. In fact, there are few jobs that have not been filled by illegals, as evidenced by the recent publicity involving illegals working as a police officer and flight attendant. And, this is only the tip of the iceberg. Those are the jobs Americans have lost to illegal aliens, and those are the jobs Americans would gladly reclaim, if given the opportunity.
As for convicts, they should be required to perform any job assigned. However, picking crops in the hot sun would be assailed by the bleeding hearts as “cruel and unusual punishment.” Sadly, our nation has grown accustomed to coddling criminals.
Citizens don’t want jobs? Really?

A discrimination lawsuit filed Friday in U.S. District Court on behalf of four black women claims the company gave preferential treatment to Latino applicants and workers, many of whom were illegal immigrants from Mexico.
The company pleaded guilty last week to conspiracy to violate immigration laws and was fined $2.5 million.
The lawsuit claims that one of the plaintiffs, Charlyn Dozier, applied for a job with Howard Industries every three to six months beginning in 2002, but wasn't offered a position until after the 2008 raid. The other plaintiffs make similar allegations.
In the days after the raid, hundreds of people lined up outside the plant to apply for jobs. Jobs at Howard Industries were among the most coveted in the area. .
PHOENIX – Most of the Pei Wei Asian Diner locations that were forced to close in the wake of last month’s immigration raids by Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio are back open for business.
Of the 16 Pei Wei restaurants in Maricopa County, eight were closed while management scrambled to hire replacement workers. Hundreds of people lined up for those jobs.

US citizens are not required to carry drivers licenses, and they certainly wouldn't have green cards on them.
Of course a citizen wouldn't have a green card on them, they wouldn't need one. I said certain legal immigrants are required to carry them at all times. As for a DL, I carry mine at all times even though it isn't required if I am not driving a car. It just makes sense to carry I.D. on you at all times in case of an accident. If Hispanics are so worrried about being checked why don't they do the same?
Simple. Republicans have a higher percentage of racists, xenophobes and other types who are afraid of different cultures. I'm not saying it's a majority of Republicans or even close to this, however, it is a significant enough of a percentage where this group is kowtowed to. And I never said there aren't rich Democrats loving the cheap labor. It seems to me the difference is Republicans look at illegals as workers only while Democrats look at illegals as people first.

And you'd think conservatives would want input from people such as myself or Mexican-Americans in general with regards to the situation we are in right now. Republicans, supposedly the "family values" party, has no issue encouraging families to come to the United States when needed then breaking up their families at a drop of a hat when they see these families as no longer useful.
You mean why have illegals been flooding this country for two decades now?

If you actually read the column left by the OP, you'd see that illegals aren't actually stealing jobs. Furthermore, it is not Democrats who are gaining the Hispanic vote, it is Republicans that are handing the Democrats the Hispanic votes through their insensitive legislation.
Um, no. The hispanics in this country are "owned" by the democratic party. I hope they do better under democratic leadership than the blacks have.

Not everyone has a DL to start with the obvious. I often go places without mine if I'm not driving a vehicle. I walk or bike all over town without it. It isn't legally required.

So.......are you like 12 years old or what? I haven't been without my wallet and license for........decades.
Good for you. I don't choose to. I don't need it and often have shorts on with little pocket space. I'm supposed to bring my wallet jogging? Biking in a park? Golfing? All of this because you do it?

Um, you can get a ticket on a bike. You do know that right? If you can't produce ID you can be detained until they prove your identity.

Good idea to carry ID. If not, a cop can still arrest you. Even if doing what you just did.
