Yeah, Obama was after votes anyway he could get them so I don't think he cares if it passes or not at this point. Kansas will go broke if they legalize the illegal. Thing that bothers me with that is that they used them while they could but if it will cost them money, oh no, can't do that. Man the borders.
This is such a crap argument.

If the only way you can get a job is by getting rid of the competition for said job, then chances are you aren't good enough to do that job in the first place.

How does it help the company by forcing them to hire inferior employees (by limiting the workforce)? It doesn't. They will produce inferior products and fail to compete with other companies that do not have such restrictions.

If your problem is that it's hard to get a job, then improve your skills/education - don't try to harm the economy by forcing places to hire you when they otherwise wouldn't.

ILLEGAL aliens DO harm the economy by forcing down the wages of many people. MOST jobs hurt by illegals are blue collar jobs like construction workers and so on. It's like you hate it when people who ain't college capable like me actually want to live a life above surviving on the street or the ghetto.

Yeah, employers are hiring illegal aliens because American workers are inferior. It's not because illegal aliens increase their profits by hiring cheap, illegal labor instead, is it? Naw.....

Right, American blue collared workers should roll over and hand the jobs they love over to illegal aliens and seek new skills to accommodate them. Did I just enter the twilight zone?
