CDF cant resolve the issue, neither writing the rep or complaining to BP.
illegal immigration is deliberate union busting. its permitted by the federal government who are controlled by biz interests who recruit mexican people to come here and work.
unions would prevent its occurence. BP law enforcement is selective.
this is being repeated in france. the only one standing up for the people are the unions.
LAnative - Of course you are still welcome here in the Ky. Forum. I apologize for the ridiculous and rude responses from some of my fellow Kentuckians when faced with facts they either cannot or will not comprehend. I enjoy your posts and value your open-minded opinions. And you are correct, that is the beauty of City-Data. Thank you for your contribution.
Great response, nokygirl! You go, girl! All people have the right to post -- no exceptions!
Funny thing is, none of you people would have the balls to say any of this stuff in the real world to me
Wouldn't it be great if the gays overran KY? I think I'll move there first and then recruit all of my ***** brothers and sisters to join me. We can gay-up the whole state! Plus I'll send out a super special invite to my gay Latino friends!
I don't care how ****ing tall you are or that you weigh 230...how about we give you a lolly pop for being tall. **** any of you who want to bash my opinion and **** your ideas...the one who thinks he's the tough guy is the total dumbass putting his body measurements up on a blog...get a god damn life. Actually my girlfriend is from dfw so ill be damn sure to let you know next time I'm in the area big boy. Sorry, your body description sounds like your trying to lure me in to rape me ***

Come on dude, quit lying. There is no way you have a girlfriend.

That is an interesting irony. The states that are most vehemently against illegal immigrants are also anti-union. The unions are really the only thing that will keep illegals out. The federal govt has proven they aren't going to do anything about them. The unions however could hold employers responsible.
The packing plants that employ ILLEGALS are the ones who started up 30 years ago in an attempt to bust the good unions that were in packing plants back then.
They were successful in busting those unions and bankrupting the good packing plants that paid a good wage and good benefits and never employed ILLEGALS.
The few packing plants that do have unions today, have a union that we used to refer to as " company unions"

Both are correct. Good observations.
One thing that wasnt commented on back when it happened, was that the SEIU union was a big backer of the pro-amnesty movement for illegals who are already here. This way they could organize this new workforce and push wages and conditions back up. They knew they could do it because the Mexicans don't have the anti-union cultural baggage Americans do.
That seemed a good deal to me. Seriously seal the border, up penaltys for illegals in a big way to make this really hurt employers who violate the law, and give an amnesty to those already there, removing the threat of deportation if they try to fight for better wages and conditions.
This approach satistifys no one in the debate, but it would solve the issue of having this vast illegal workforce (in place and as a future supply) depressing wages and working conditions.
