139. We just interpret the OP differently
I didn't read anything that I interpreted as blaming the immigrant (legal or non-legal) workers. I agree with you that they are not to blame for taking whatever opportunity they can to try to better life for themselves and their families. I said this is a previous post in this thread.

That doesn't change the fact that it is probably human nature for unemployed local laborers to feel resentment for those who are working AND blame the companies that use the immigrant labor to save a buck. It doesn't have to be either/or.
