Most Americans support it and they don't know it.

You do like low grocery bills, right?

What's your point. I know that very well - the history of Ellis Island.
You are forgetting, they went through legal channels - over 12 Million of them.

Only one person of my family tree went that route. The others did not arrive in this country till much later or not through Ellis Island.

Almost never. This country has survived much greater problems - a Civil War, the Great Depression, Vietnam, 9/11, etc.

Many of the products you get from the store would cost you 20 to 30% more if migrant workers and illegals weren't in the fields working for next to nothing.

Vilsack: We Need Illegal Immigrants to Keep the Price of Food Low | National Review Online

"Vilsack also spoke frankly about how without the labor of illegal immigrants, the price of food in the United States would cost “three, four, or five times more than it does now.”

You can't be serious? Are you saying that big business supports bringing in 60 thousand children from central America? Why? What good are 60 thousand children to a business man? Child labor laws and all that.
Preposterous.

So I can expect a decline in my grocery bill as our government appears disinterested in securing our borders and continues to permit illegals to walk on in? When will the decline occur?
