I've worked with illegal immigrants, and have spoken to many, and have lived on a sofa for awhile while attending work on a bus and having to walk a mile all with no vehicle. I live in a predominantly latino County, and feel as though I have had plenty of encounters with them. food for thought.

I’ve slept in hotels, but that didn’t make me the owner or qualify me to run one.
I didn't score too well on my SAT, figures into why I can't understand your analogy.
That’s all right I was using some of your circular logic. What it means is there are more than one piece to a puzzle. Seeing on piece or half of the puzzle doesn’t give you the whole picture.

Based on this experience you may feel you have a good understanding of the illegal immigration problem, but what you really have is a one sided view.
If you really wanted to understand the problem then you need to talk to the displaced workers that once held these jobs that are now held by illegals.
Only by doing this will you truly be able to understand the issue.
Are there Americans who are not honest and responsible with their actions?! Every race or group of people, has folks who are not law-abiding citizens or do not strive to be decent people.
We know Americans do all those things, but as Nea1 said, "WE DON'T NEED ANYMORE OF IT!"
Maybe thats because they group up together, get free healthcare, and dont need to fill out applications or go to interviews. They wouldnt even benefit the as much as the illegal because they would be rejected at a dentist or a hospital. They wouldnt be able to find two other American families willing to share a house with them to make minimum wage either. Anyone who says that is wealthy or just looking for cheap labor. Why dont you find a statistic of how many of those illegals supposedly benefitting from these low paying jobs are actually able to get ahead after getting these jobs. Because if you arent paying decent wages then they dont have a chance to get ahead unless twenty of them split costs up. Im skeptical of anyone who says they do jobs Americans wont.
