[quote=Toyman at Jewel Lake;13940730]Where is the rest of the story? The 300 illegals that were fired were criminals.really????

Did the federal government do their job? NO

Were these criminals arrested and are they currently serving time for violation of immigration law?NO and NO
Were they deported?NO
Were they arrested for fraud or identity theft for using fradulant documents?NOPE

Or once again did ICE just ignore the criminal element and let them go?[/quote]ICE went to the bathroom and when they got back they were gone....again

I suspect you are right. Much as I'd like to blame this lack of competence on the Obama administration, the past admin did no better a job of enforcing immigration law.

I was just reading one post and I don`t know were they got the idea that Americans won`t work at a grocery store. All of the grocery stores that I`ve been to are Americans working there. Managers at grocery stores get paid well and if your grocery store is union, you get paid decent.

Were I live, Americans are working at the fast food and retail places. So anyone saying that those are jobs that Americans won`t do is wrong. I actually don`t know were people got that idea in the first place. Most likely the media....Finally some justice here for American workers.

Something needs to be done to the education system in the US. And I say doing that something is much better than what the Democrat's (Obama) is trying to do, and that is destroy the whole country. Wake up, or crawl back underneath that rock...

Sorry but you fail in the common sense area. People who have been without work for some time will do any job.

I don't get it. According to the Loony Left, I thought illegal aliens did the work that lazy Americans didn't want to do? Why do these lazy Americans want the illegals' jobs?

Have you checked the unemployment rate lately? A lot of people are happy
to land a temporary job while looking for something better. The education
level doesn't matter in this case.

this government better start thinking about american workers. each tier of unemployment extension is shorter than the 1 before and some people have completely fallen off all the unemployment tiers in this country. from a recent article:

For the first time, rumors of adding additional weeks of benefits to that bill are being heard, reports allyourtv.com.
Senate Democrats have reportedly been working on a jobs bill that would include both an extension of the filing deadlines as well as some unspecified number of additional weeks of unemployment coverage.

But those unemployed hoping for more weeks of coverage should be aware that while this idea sees to be real, it's also nowhere near becoming an actual bill (much less being signed into law).

there shouldn't be even one illegal immigrant in a job that an american citizen could hold, especially as americans are falling off the unemployment safety net!
