Let's see: I'm from Chicago, Illinois. I also would disagree with the no comma portion of your statement as several college students, back in the day when I attended college, supplemented with and lived on the money from working in these low tech, low skilled labor venues. As a freshman at Georgia Tech, I spent many nights doing homework while working the night security job at the mall. My girlfriend worked at the local "choke and puke" to get herself some pocket money too! And as an African American, I would gladly evidence my pride with the exclamation point of capitals when I say, AMERICAN!!!
I understood your post to mean Simple Americans! your use of a comma created the confusion. I would have written your post : Simple! AMERICANS!
the economy won't collapse but the economy will shrink. However, due to an increase in outsourcing and the collapse of certain sectors of the economy, i wouldn't be surprise if the net change in jobs will stay the same if not decreases. So after that all is said and done, only few americans will see an increase in wages while the rest will still remain in the same economic state as they were before.
i'm amazed at how anti-immigrant (actually, just anti-mexican) folks are on this site. cheap labor is cheap labor. folks better think twice about kicking out the foreigners. it may affect YOUR cost for goods and services.
i live in Florida and there are a ton of english and canadians ilegal immigants. . They work as waiters and service industr for tips ans cash. How come no one complains about them . All I here about are those evil mexicans . I think it just the american george bush syndrome . We only have 2 more years . thank god
amen, watchdaride. to the other poster i say, at least admit your xenophobia and don't hide it with a " that different, that numbers" explanation.
