You may want to have some compassion for yourself, how would you like to be doing your job for half the pay?
Think it can't happen? stand back and watch, if something is not done.

Nea, I don't believe we have ever agreed on any issue, with all respect for you and your arguments, it's sensless to keep going back and forth.

The only jobs with half the pay are Construction, Agriculture, and other Physical Services, where illegal immigrants slip underneath the legal rug. There are thousands of other jobs this country has to offer that illegal immigrants have no part of, where wages are not cut or split, Americans have plenty of opportunities of work.

I didnt see it as arguing, I saw it as two people exchanging their views. Sorry if you didnt. I understand why you have your views, you are young, dont have a family to raise and take care of, you havent been to some of these very repressed areas of the US that we speak of you only know what has been in your world to date, I was hoping you would open your mind to those views and try to understand why we feel the way we do. I am in no way a racist because I do not like illegals coming here and doing what they are. I have met very nice people of many cultures I am proud to call friends. It is OK to be angry at people for things they do like commit crimes. I have NEVER called them a derogatory name on this forum or to their face or behind their back, I never would. Although I cannot say the same for some of them.

I have absolutely no hard feelings and do not mind debating, I am only tired.

He should have gave it at least 6 months and see how hard those 12-14 hr days really are...LOL.. Construction is tough work, it's not for people that's afraid of hard labor that's for sure.

Most people in this line of work do 6-7 hours before lunch break, some don't take a lunch break every day.

I do blame illegals too, why? Again, they know by coming here they're breaking the law. Why should they get special treatment for doing so?

My hubby is friends with a few policeman in our town. They basically have told him, that their hands are tied when it comes to arresting them and what not. So, I wonder if that's the case everywhere.

I would say by the looks of those border patrol guys for shooting a drug dealer!! I believe people are just as mad at the government but, lots of people support the overcrowd immigration situation.

These are jobs Americans would do and do for 8 hours. Your saying only immigrants will work that long. I guess your wife would have to work!!
