33. Very Good Point...
The basic reason...need it be said...is that those who are using "illegal aliens" as an issue do so baesd along racial and class discrimination rather than the real economic impacts. It's strawmen galore as the full picture isn't disclosed...only the ones that serve the political and financial agendas of the biggest noisemakers.

I've long favored a weeklong strike by the "illegals"...shut down all the fast food joints and watch the produce shelves go bare. But I still doubt they'll get the point...hate trumps logic and reason every time.

Cheers...
