One of the comments to the article sounded interesting...
"Steve Case of AOL made a great analogy last week on this issue.. kicking out fully trained by US university science and engineering PHD's after graduation is similar to training foreign military leadership then sending them back against their will to the opposition."

So these are illegal immigrants training to compete for American jobs? It's not like we have a shortage of Americans in college training for those same jobs. Who cares about their "will"? Go home and use your training to help your own countries. We have a shortage of jobs here.

Read the article, they're talking about making a distinction between hi-skills and low-skills immigrants. Which BTW, is really the same difference that's driving the rest of the job market right now, except a lot of our lower skilled ''natives'' seem to think that makes them ''entitled'' and so they shouldn't have to ''compete''. And lotsa luck with that attitude in an age when it basically amounts to ''rust belt'' labor resisting the growth of hi-tech!

American citizens ARE entitled to jobs over illegal foreingers and no they shouldn't have to compete with those who don't even have a legal right to be in this country much less to work here.

Either way why should Americans move over for illegals?

I don't agree with the practice either, but unfortunately the reality is, in a global economy it's basically the same thing as outsourcing, except now we're just importing the labor. And we're all complicit, from importing cars and iPhones, to buying chinese crap at Walmart. So one way or another, we're all becoming just one giant worldwide labor market.... and American workers better start choosing which part of that market they wanna compete for!

Why should the American worker need to compete with people that don't belong here?
We don't need added competition.
You seem like you don't care about opening our borders for more work competition.
