Is lying& stealing from Americans considered a job? Isn't that the only job Conservatives are good at?

Rob from the poor to give to the rich, and people still vote for them. It is called supply side economics. What a shame for the richest country in the world that they cannot take care of their poor.

HaHa, that's hilarious. I agree. now I have to defend you.\n\nMendi8a: \nYour husband is illegal? Wow. I'll send the FBI over. By the way he probably didn't buy anything. He made the pinata and stole the low rider? Am I right?\n\nLawsondavila:\nPeople like you make me sick, saying they do jobs Americans won't do. If they didn't work for 1$ an hour, and the employers made the pay equal to the work, then Americans would do these jobs. Do you honestly think that the jobs they are doing, just never got done before they entered the country? Come on.\n\nWanna Baloon:\nRednecks are not illegal.\n\nand...\nClipz4life:\nWe SHOULD tax junk food. \nOr at least caffeine. We tax the hell out of tobacco and alcohol.\nCaffeine is a drug.\nWhy not tax the hell out of coffee, tea, chocolate, and cola?

What scarcity of jobs, the economy is just booming, just ask any repuglican, you are one of them to lazy to go to work like they say. Isn't it a shame that in America, in a time of war that there are people that can't find jobs. It is supply side economics that is causing it. Give a tax break to a rich person he will eat for a day but give anything to the poor and it is because they are no good.....

There is no job that americans, or anyone, would not do for the right price.  The markets would adjust, and the price of cheap labor would rise until people would do it.  Realize that there is not a single industry where the majority of manual labor is done by illegal immagants.  Not agriculture (where they are 24% of workers), not construction (14%), cleaning (17%) or any other recognized field.  Note that the statistics I quoted above are from the Pew Hispanic Center, not very conservative.

They did something illegal. Isn't that the definition of a criminal?\n\nI'm tired of the stereotype that Americans wouldn't do the work that illegals do. Illegals do all kinds of jobs for less than minimum wage which drive the wages down for U.S. citizens. Construction jobs are an example. There are lots of illegals doing construction jobs that Americans used to do because the companies can keep more of the profits if they pay less for the workers. All that does is make companies wealthier and Americans poorer. Illegals are stealing jobs that Americans have done for years.

I don't and I don't understand it. They are hard workers and do everything they can to provide for their family's. They take jobs that "Americans" don't want. I can't find fault with them.

well i guess it took at least one republican to file the paperwork to outsource the job.\n\nbut that is a good one, and i plan on using this joke on my friends.

Typical Democrat: What a dumb ass you are! First..you always hear the Dems cry about outsourcing job..it's a fact that we IN-SOURCE 10X that many jobs. You are getting your information from the democratic leadership..I know they TELL you what and how to think...BUT try to think OUT-SIDE the box they give you! Quit listening to Jesse Jackson, Johnny Kerry, Kennedy and the rest of these liberals..they don't give a damn about the poor because they are ALL RICH. And just remember it's not the poor who create jobs..it's the ones with brains and wealth who create jobs..Dems bring poverty..THINK!

I'd probably have to say some time between when pigs fly and when hell freezes over. \n\nHonestly, it's not happening. Politicians can hype up as much cr*p as they want, but our economy is too dependent on immigrant labor (there are just some jobs that Americans wont do for less than minimum wage).\n\nI never quite understood American distaste for illegal immigrants. The argument that they steal American jobs is a load of BS (where do we get this idea that we have some sort of god-given right to a job?). They do things we wouldn't do for the pay they're willing to make. I wouldn't say that's a bad thing at all. In fact, they're blending right in to the American capitalist system. The fact that many speak spanish and that Hispanic culture is becoming an increasingly visible part of our national culture as a whole seems to bother many. However, when did we ever say that European culture (and that's pretty much what it is in all honesty) should be the dominant one here? Or that English should be our official language (for the record, its not in the constitution). Just because we've done things a certain way for years doesn't mean its the right or best thing to do.

Ahhh. I have written so much today, my hands are tired. alas, I come to a question i have so much to say about, but don't feel like typing it all out :) Yes, I'm a citizen and damn proud of it. last semester(i'm in college) I worked in the dishroom and served dinner in our school's cafeteria-style dining hall. Dishroom wasn't great, was very hot, humid, and the floor was very slippery. didn't smell too pleasant, and scraping baked-on cheese off of large pans was no fun, either. But to be honest, the job was made fun by my co-workers who similarly didn't care for the job but we made it fun together, ya know? two summers ago, I worked for the State DOT scraping road kill off the side of the road. now tell me THAT is a disgusting job. that job too was made fun by co-workers. I would say working for a hotel cleaning rooms or mopping lobby floors is at least a little more sanitary and enjoyable than shoveling roadkill carcasses, don't you? so if those are the kinds of jobs Americans won't do, am I a sac of potatoes? or worse-- an illegal Maria Chiquita? Thanks a BUNCH for bringing up the anchor baby part of the 14th Amendment, I made an argument the other day and reffered to that. right on. I like your posts and comments so far, I'm glad there are other Americans out there who are fed up with this problem like I am. It hits college students HARD if you're like me. last summer I tried applying to a Jack in the Box part time, guess what? no spots available. the guy at the register spoke no more English than my neighbors' 3 year old. I was pissed that they'd hire someone for customer service (hey come on, cashier is customer service) who spoke that little English, but whatever, it's fast food. hehe

there are jobs that dont make it worthwhile for some americans to take.  People on welfare make more in welfare than they would it they work, the system here needs to be changed.  Unions make it hard to hire employees who might do these jobs; prisoners, kids, etc.  companies that have to pay health care, insurance, etc for legal workers.  I think what bush means is that its bad for the companies profits not to be able to hire illegals, pay them low wages, give them no benefits, and tell them to get lost when the work is done.

Who do you think did all those jobs before illegals invaded our country?  Maybe those jobs didn't exist, or maybe farmers let their produce rot?  Your argument is illogical and self serving.  The fact of the matter is that employers want these illegals here because they can take advantage of them, and the government who looks out for the interests of the business elite, supports them in this.  They try to play Americans for fools by sending troops to the border and suggesting a guest worker program, which is just a way to ensure a permanent source of cheap labor for these greedy employers.  Illegals will work for wages that no American will work for, and as a result they take jobs from Americans and drive wages down for everybody else.  It's obvious you don't know what you are talking about when you bring up something like doing construction work for $7.50 an hour.  Construction work, just so you know, was a good job that paid a lot more than $7.50 an hour and that employed many Americans, until illegals started swarming our country and doing doing construction for shit wages.  A lot of Americans lost good paying jobs, and contruction companies increased their profits by grotesque proportions.  So don't fool yourself by thinking that illegals are essential.  The only reason they are allowed to come and stay is because they increase the profits of the business elite.  But this can only go on for so long.  At some point, Americans will get so sick of being screwed that these businessmen and their politician buddies who are selling out their counrtry for profits, will have no choice but to stop hiring illegals altogether, and these illegals will have no choice but to go home where they belong.

Actually we hold job as president too important in my opinion. The president works for us, not the other way around. Bush has been telling the American people what to do and how to think about certain situations and i find this to be completly wrong. Like I mentioned above, the President works for us and he should do what we want. My loyalties belong to this country, not its president.

Are you still Talking the "JOBS AMERICANS WONT DO" Bullshit.I like millions of other poor americans have done the very work people claim only immigrants do.Ive always done what i has too, to put a roof over my head and food on my table.Yet ive actually worked for less and payed taxes on less wages.Have you ever seen what happens to a $200 check after taxes? I have.It works out to be less than the cash jobs alot of illegals do.Are you blind or do you not even realize there is such a thing as "Poor Americans"
