The minor price differences in goods isn't worth the loss of American jobs, higher health care premiums and higher taxes we pay to make up for them. They're not scapegoats, they're criminals. You seem to be missing the part that they have committed a crime.

Wet backs have been a common work force since the 1920s and all of a sudden they are a problem? They do pay taxes, when they purchase taxable items.
They are having taxes, social security, and unemployment withheld from paychecks, that go unclaimed.
They are the ones that are victimized the most by criminals that live in the same poverty plagued areas that they have to live in.
How often do you see a construction site or highway project where there are 6 or 8 fat bubbas standing around B.S.ing while 2 or 3 Mexicans are happily working away ?
How many good Americans would sleep 5 or 6 to a room to save the money that they work hard to earn so that they could provide a better life for the families that they send money to?
They are better people than you are, they are brown, and you can't handle it.
The people that you vote for are the criminals that you should be concerned with.
You referenced the Irish, Chinese, Japanese, Italians and others. These people came into this country LEGALLY and wanted to become AMERICANS. They learned to speak ENGLISH and assimilated into the American way of life.

I don't know if the price differences are minor.
Also if this is such a problem why is the only campaign a verbal one. In other words why not even an attempt to close our borders? Why are we constantly focused on the effects and never the casue. Seems like an easy enough problem to solve, no?
Basically one side of me is war mongering and arrogant.. the other side wants peace and unification... This post doesn't really contribute to the thread, sorry.

OK apparently I need to change it, how about Illegal immigration is not a problem. sorry I didn't add the "illegal" part to it, I didn't think it was necessary.
speaking of ignorance...there's a difference between immigration and illegally coming into this country. Your complete lack of understanding regarding the subject is actually laughable. Glad you're leaving
Because it's impossible to close the boarders completely.
In other words, just because I leave my front door unlocked when I go to work, it doesn't give anyone the right to break and and still my things.
