How many people have lost their jobs to illegals?

in Bedbug Questions



Question by oldhag:
How many people have lost their jobs to illegals?

I finally figured it out. I kept hearing about all
those jobs Americans just won’t do. We’re never really
told what they are, but I guess we should be happy
they’re getting done and stop complaining about all
the negative aspects of having twenty million illegal
aliens in our midst.
Perhaps we should just accept the idea that 25
American citizens are going to continue to be killed
every day by illegals – half of them by drunk drivers
– because it’s a small price to pay to get all those
jobs done.

We should get used to the idea that nearly four
million children of illegals are filling our public
schools, and that more than 300,000 illegal aliens are
serving time in our prisons. There are another 640,000
illegals who should be in prison but aren’t because
they are fugitives. We’re not paying to incarcerate
them, so that’s a plus, but unfortunately they are
probably the ones responsible for killing those 25
Americans every day. And, of course, we are getting
those jobs done.

We really shouldn’t complain about the resurgence of
heretofore-eradicated diseases, including Tuberculosis
and the plague. You’ve probably heard that bedbugs are
also making a comeback. But it’s okay, because we’re
getting all those jobs done.

I guess we should be more than willing to pay the
cost for illegals to flood our hospital emergency
rooms for free service; and it’s the least we can do
to declare their babies born on our soil as American
citizens. What else could a compassionate society do
for people doing all those jobs for us?

Americans should be happy to press one for English
and to sort through multicultural instructions written
in Spanish (and sometimes other languages) in order to
find the English directions. But again, who else is
going to do all those jobs? Snobby, self-indulgent
Americans? I don’t think so.

I have to confess that I was less than thrilled
recently to see my local super market put up new signs
over their food aisles directing customers to the item
of their choice in both English and Spanish. I found
myself wondering how long it would take me to figure
out in Mexico City that “Jalapeño” means “Pepper.” But
after I thought about all those jobs lazy, spoiled
Americans (apparently including me) simply won’t do, I
realized it was well worth whatever inconvenience I
might experience.

To tell you the truth, I was at a loss to figure out
which jobs the invading hordes of illegals actually
were doing that my fellow Americans and I won’t do.
Oh, I know the usual answers, but those don’t seem to
be the jobs I see them doing. In fact, I see them
roofing houses and making good money at it. I see them
working hard at more and more skilled jobs that people
I know personally would gladly do.

Then, as I wrote at the beginning of this column, I
finally figured it out. It was the story of the Fort
Dix Six that finally made it all click for me. Six
Muslim men were arrested for plotting to kill American
soldiers at Fort Dix, New Jersey.
I have a photo hanging on my office wall of my
father’s Army platoon at Fort Dix . It is dated April
4, 1942. Fort Dix has been a primary jumping-off point
for our troops headed overseas for generations, which,
of course, is what made it such a tempting target.
At least three of the Fort Dix Six were in this
country illegally. They were brothers. They owned a
roofing company. Again, that’s not a job American
workers won’t do, so what could they possibly be doing
here? That’s when it hit me.

Being a member of a terrorist cell is the one job
Americans just won’t do.

Maybe we all need to contact our senators and
representatives one more time about the travesty of
justice currently coming up for a vote. If you do,
please do it before it becomes law. Oh yeah, make
sure to include the president on the list. Maybe, if
all else fails, we can persuade him to, or coerce him
into, a veto of this latest give away of our national
sovereignty.

Our unemployment rate is pretty low and keeps getting lower since 2000..so no I don’t think it’s the illegals.

My sincerest apologies on behalf of all the illegal aliens living in the United States.

I’m so sorry that people have to leave their loved ones to come to the United States to find a better life. But wouldn’t you relocate if you knew that jobs were available somewhere else?

Just so you know, some of the jobs that illegal immigrants perform include gardening, hospitality, textile work, and child care. Would you rather hire a person who demands $ 12 per hour or more (because that’s what they should be paid for such work) or hire someone who will be naive enough to accept only $ 8, and will eagerly do overtime?

Lastly, I’m so sorry that illegal high school graduates have to join the Army and fight for the country that is so rightfully yours.

I’m so sorry that illegal immigrants are trying to screw you, because you sound like a great, compassionate guy who clearly doesn’t deserve it.

Just out of curiosity, when and why did your ancestors come to the United States?

you only look at the negative parts! what about the 95% of immigrants who dont kill people how about the immigrants who pickup fruit for 12 hours every day for five bucks in the scorching hot sun just so you can have a strawberry? your problem is that you only look at the negative points of immigrants being here in teh u.s of a.

How many?

Easy one: just as many as the ones who were performing jobs in gardening, hospitality, textile work, and child care.

All jobs done by illegals could have been jobs for legal citizens or legal immigrants or people who are utilizing their work visas. So 100% of their jobs. There is no job that a person will not do. The pay is the issue. Teens will do any job, the poor will do any job, and the homeless will do any job. If you get a person that won’t, you find a person that will. It does not have to be an illegal.

The president keeps saying that these people are only doing jobs Americans don’t want. I say to you, go by any construction site in this country, and see how many there even speak English.
