Concerned about businesses: Juvenal Gamarra, 49, is hoping Indiana's illegal-immigration legislation will die. If not, he says, he fears there will be a mass exodus of workers, hurting both Latino and American employers. - Matt Detrich / The Star
I don't think Indiana's legislation is anit Hispanic, or anti immigrant. I think it boils down to numbers. States can only absorb so many immigrants.

Why does everyone think that America will be so bad off if all the law-breaking illegals are gone? Were we that bad off before they invaded? No, we were BETTER off.

Big business will be worse off because they won't profit as much but U.S. citizens will be better off cause we don't have to pay for them to take care of themselves... just whose interests is our government looking out for? Businesses or citizens? McCain, Clinton, and Obama are ALL for amnesty... it seems we are in worse shape then before... It seems odd that the people mentioned in the story moved away for either 1) Hardships of their country 2) Profit-seekers. They don't want to tackle the hardship of fixing the problems in their own country so they create hardships for U.S. citizens in our country? So what happens when there are hardships in the U.S., they will MOVE to another country? Thanks, but no thanks. The other reasons they gave is to seek more money and for every dollar more they make, they are taking that dollar away from a U.S. citizen. Until every U.S. citizen is making a decent amount, illegals should stay away unless they can fix that problem.
