Excellent thread and opening post! Those points really need to be used to battle the liberal and media narrative. Looking through the thread, I don't see any logical pro Illegal response. They got nothing to respond with.

I am sure if we will dump next years 10 millions Europeans with Bachelors and Master degrees who will push the wages downwards , lots of liberals will quickly change their minds.

About arguments Americans don't do these kind of job , it is Bulls... go to Idaho or Montana most of construction, landscaping fast food etc... are done by locals .
Are you saying the illegals intend to go on welfare handouts when given amnesty?

I suspect most illegals working in lettuce picking figure with amnesty, they can grab up much better paying jobs and start taking jobs Americans do want.

Plus there's the family reunification that Obama has promised them with amnesty. They can all start bringing in family members who will also need to have either jobs or government handouts or both.

I heard when the orchards in California hire people to pick fruits, no Americans apply.
Amnestied illegals won't be doing those jobs either. They can apply for disability and other welfare and have a much higher standard of living. Your statement would actually support keeping them illegal -- with citizenship, the need to work low paying jobs will be gone.

Those jobs will be filled by new arrivals -- the next batch of many millions of illegals who will soon demand another amnesty.
