Compliance Assistance Employment Law Guide - Minimum Wage and Overtime Pay (http://www.dol.gov/compliance/guide/minwage.htm#BasicPro - broken link)

Illegal workers cannot demand they get paid overtime, because that would only get them fired... and there is always another scab waiting in line to take his place.

again is not about laws, is the way we do business here in america, we dont knell to individuals without power, thats what has made this country
into a powerhouse...

when you define me the meaning of capitalism ILL DEFINE YOUR LAWS..

Capitalism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"Through capitalism, the land, labor, and capital are owned, operated, and traded by private individuals either singly or jointly,[3][4] and investments, distribution, income, production, pricing and supply of goods, commodities and services are determined by voluntary private decision in a market economy."

everyday individuals VOTE by hiring and making decisions to expand their profits...you might say but illegals dont put the money they take out in social services correct?

do you think those companies that exploited those immigrants did not consume? did not put their profits in the banks? and banks were lending DIRTY MONEY....THAT ILLEGALS the leeches made in profits for their slave masters...again we need to direct our scapegoating to the real profitters...of all of these
