Who will fill the job vacencies left by the migrant workers so many of you propose to deport?

Okay.........  Let me put it to you like this:\n\nI am an African-American Male born in the early 1960's.  I was born during the time African-Americans were fighting for their civil rights back in the 1950's and the 1960.  \n\nAnd if I could recall correctly, African-Americans were fighting basically for the same thing illegal immigrants are fighting for now........\n\n(01).  Human Equality\n(02).  Ecconomical Equality\n(03).  Justice for All\n\nOnly differences being is that we were already over here in the United States, and being that we were offsprings to our African ancesstors whose ancesstors were brought over here to work in cotton fields as slaves against our will more than 400 years ago, until President Lincoln (a Republican President now) has abolished it and made slavery illegal almost 150 years ago.  So.....  we were brought over here against our will.  And now, being that we were the offspring of these ancesstors, since we were born over here in the United States over the last century or so, at least, that made us legal by default.  And then almost 150 years later, when slavery was abolished, we have fought in wars for this country, fought for OUR civil rights more than 50 years ago and yet even today, African-Americans still cannot get a fair shake in this country.\n\nExamples being:\n\n(01).  I have to pay taxes every two weeks when I get my paycheck.  From what I hear, illegal immigrants don't even have taxes taken out of their paychecks.  So.........  what gives here????\n\n(02).  I know of an hispanic family (in fact.........  I know of two of such families that live on the same block as I do in my neighborhood) that has brought houses within the last four years.  I have been living in the same neighborhood for almost twenty years, and in the wake of rising real estate prices, I (or the average working African-American) cannot even afford to buy a house in that neighborhood (and houses go for $350,000.00++ in that neighborhood), but yet, the city has awarded a family of immigrant workers the house for $250,000.00 at the first part of the year.  That alone has pushed a hot button within myself.  And where's the justice in that????\n\nAND\n\n(03).  Immigrant workers are probably the MAIN reason as to the reason why I cannot get a decent job at a livable wage so then I can become more of viable contributor to the American ecconomy and buy my piece of the American dream.  When I am asking for $12.00 to about $18.00 an hour to work at a job about five days a week and then an immigrant worker can come into THIS country and can do the same job that I am asking $12.00 to $18.00 an hour to perform for $6.00 to $8.00 an hour.  I cannot help but to think that they are the main reason I cannot get a good paying job right now.  And this would be the same type of job that I wouldn't have a problem landing about a decade ago\n\nWhen I see these very things happening to my people and to me personally, it going to be kind of hard for me to have any kind of pitty for illegal immigrants who want to come over here and take a job that could be rightfully mine and then in the process, push me and my people down to the bottom of the totem pole of the ecconomic ladder\n\nI think that this kind of injustice to my people is another slap in the face right along with the other injustices that we have been suffering through for the last 400 years or so.\n\nI cannot support migrant workers being over here illegally........  I'm sorry........  :(\n\nI am not saying that immigrants are not welcome here.  They are.  But if they want equality and justice in this country, they are going to have to go through the same channels that we went through after we were brought over here illegally on slave ships four centuries ago.\n\n--Charles--\nchaskelljr2@yahoo.com

the immigration boycott. I say there will be many rallying, gather them up and ship them back from where they came from.

Fair or unfair, it is logistically impossible.  What we need to do if we want to stop illegal immigration is start throwing CEO's and Rich people who hire them to work for their companies, take care of their kids or mow their lawns.  Only then will you reduce the incentive for people to come here for a better life.  Cut off the jobs, you will cut off most of the desire to come here.

South Americans. You don't have to fire them and pay unemployment, just call the Migra. Just kidding. Every culture has hard workers and lazy asses.

Senate (most)needs to be deported too. And they can take some of the other party with them.\n\nTraitors

No. We should deport all those who came here or stayed here illegally.

The borders must be secured to avoid all the illegal immigration but also persecute companies that are doing the illegal hiring to exploit cheap labor. As long as there is a demand, the flow will continue. Immigration has to be controled, no question about it.

They want jobs here to jump on the gravy train and they think they're going to get amnesty.\n\nNo Compromise, No Amnesty!

They will get loopholes for guest workers or get visas to have the people tehre, they cannot not have those workers!

Only if they can prove they're liberal...  or Communist...  or Marxist...  or are looking for free handouts...  or criminals...  or a terrorist.  Any hard working, well educated individuals who come to this country looking for lower taxes and limited government intervention in their daily lives will be immediately deported.\n\nGo figure.

They shouldn't. They don't deserve shit and you can quote me on that. Let's just deport their asses.

Immigrants are the best solution to cover the posts of unwanted jobs in many countries! If the law changes they automatically start paying taxes. When you born cannot choose the place to live, later however you should be allowed to do whatever and wherever you want. That's the human right - freedom. Romanians moved to Poland, Poles moved to the UK, British and Mexicans moved to USA, Dominicans, Colombians to Spain etc. There were recently millions of people around globe who found the place to live somewhere else and how on earth the governments will put them back to where they came from? If they find a job it obviously means they're needed there. You lost cooks - pay bribes officers so they go to other industries instead ;-D)))

out if there illegal. Otherwise let them stay, but, illegal immigrants are costing us money, even if they do jobs nobody else will do. That's like saying illgeal immigrants are at the very very bottom of the totem pole.

I tend to agree.  Not only are they going to suffer from the loss of jobs due to employers getting the smackdown placed on them, they're losing the support of most fairminded Americans with all of this Mexican flag waving garbage.

I support a guest worker program. I think it's impossible to throw all of them out. How are we going to find 12 million illegals? I'm a realist and know that we have to build a fence and send troops to guard it. But I know that is impossible to find all of the illegals here. We need to fine employers who hire illegals and reduce legal immigration with quotas. Illegal immigration is a serious problem and needs to be stopped.

they will relise that it wasn't worth it. Not only will they lose a day's pay but also they will have to find new jobs on Tuesday. If they all left, the USA would have no problem filling the jobs. If we can afford large houses, SUV's, internet, cell phones, large screen tv's, and cable then we will not be affected by their absence. I think this will be a good opportunity for the feds and military to round them all up. They will leave by bus, train and trailer. ALL ABOARD!!! Adios Amigos y Amigas!!!

This is an easy answer, Arrest those that do the hiring of illegals. Put them in jail, fine the company's enough so it is not worth it to hire illegals at substandard wage. That fixes everything. \n\nNO JOB = NO WORK = NO MONEY = NO REASON TO COME HERE AND  NO REASON TO STAY.  Really simple.
