2. I keep trying to make this point...
Too many people, especially those who are not directly confronted with this because of where they live, still think of illegal immigrants as migrant farm workers or something.

They are now being hired for jobs that the working class always depended on, especially in hard times. And in numbers that are really straining the local economies that have to pay for the schooling and healthcare of these people, who obviously don't pay taxes.
