Yep. The whole argument that illegals are doing jobs Americans won't do doesn't hold water. Any industry where you have a relatively large number of illegal aliens employed also employs Americans and lawful residents. The latter two actually make up the vast majority of the workforce in those industries. There just isn't a job that an American won't do - any claim to the contrary is a lie.

I'm a liberal, kind of, although I'm also a fiscal conservative.

I won't claim that illegal immigrants won't do jobs that Americans won't do. I would claim that Americans won't do jobs that are paid way under minimum wage. Yet, if the illegal immigrants are not available to do these jobs anymore, the employers have no other choice than to hire Americans or lawful residents.

It will cost them more, it will thus either reduce their profits or even increase the price of the product itself, but that's the price we, the American public and the consumers, have to be willing to pay if we want to see illegal labor to disappear.

I am.

Its not a liberal/conservative issue. Anyone that harps on that rant is only displaying their inadequate level of particular hackery because that is all they can manage to get from their brain at any given moment.

Common sense needs to be practiced, even though it will be contrary to most profit margins, and even though it is something that logically goes against an unregulated market that has only one bottom line: profitability at the expense of everything else.
