Yes its true. They are very much needed no matter how much those legal citizens deny it. They might find out only if those migrant workers go on mass leave. |

Start by Fining ALL the employers who don't want to meet the LEGAL minimum wage and LABOR LAWS by hiring ILLEGAL ALIENS. Force them to pay the costs for deporting them.
THEN you will see MANY Americans jump at the chance to go to work. |

Anyone. You don't have to be paid $20 an hour for working the fields. Just something fair and at least minimum wage. |

Americans have been working in the fields and other jobs BEFORE ILLEGALS came to the US!! We can do it again!!!! |

Americans would. Migrants and illegals aren't the only ones working themselves to the bone for little pay and no benefits, there are millions of Americans doing it everyday just to get by. |

oh lord.... you have so much learning to do-and I think you are being brainwashed... ok.. to be an American Citizen, you have to by law pay taxes... so therefore yes if an American has that job they would have to be paid decent in order to have enough money to support their family in their country... I'm looking for a job.. I would go work out in the fields.. but I have yet to see an ad for picking fruit or anything else.. because the employers would rather hire illegal immigrants because they don't have to pay them decent wages or give them health benefits.. so where does that leave me as an American Citizen... without a job... so yes illegal immigration does hurt Americans Citizens |

That would be one way to take care of the HOMELESS problem in this country, PUT THE HOMELESS PEOPLE
TO WORK IN THE FIELDS and provide FEMA trailers
for them to live in and that would be the #1 problem solver!! |

The same law abiding, tax paying Americans who did it before illegals came in and suppressed wages while putting an enormous strain on social services while contributing nothing to them.
By the way, it's amazing how you and others who argue the benefits of illegal immigration base your position on the premise that the exploitation (sub-standard wages and exploitative working conditions) of the illegals is a good thing.

THEIR ARE VERY POOR AMERICANS THAT WILL TAKE THOSE JOBS. THE REASON THEY ARE GIVEN TO ILLEGALS IS BECAUSE THE EMPLOYER CHOOSES TO GET OVER ON THE GOVERNMENT. |

how about some of the dead beats who are born here whom choose to scam the welfare and s.s.i. programs.we have enough losers to fill the gap without importing deadbeats from any other country,,not just mexico,,all illegals should go... |

Anyone who is in the US illegally should go out. Any workers that are needed should come in legally through easy immigration procedures that are not in place right now, that's why the US is getting the worst possible immigration, because anyone who is not willing to break the law is left outside. |

Well I know plenty of americans who get paid less then 20 dollars and hour. Yep there are plenty of people who would take those jobs and not be payed 20 dollars an hour. But shoot I don't think that anybody with do it for 3 dollars an hour. You know what thier pay rate is? Do it even make minium wage. |

that kind of dissing your race, saying that they will work for basically nothing. And of course americans need the jobs because the those people that work for nothing took those jobs away. |

Need some illegals.
Of course, because they're illegal, I think that the farmers should be able to expoit them, underpay them, and beat them as necessary. |

if americans worked the fields things will change, they will have to provide some kind of insurance. and take the pay up. so who is really being treated like crap. not the americans. thats why they have illegals working for them. |

That's the whole point.
This "issue" has come up again because there are so many other economic and political disasters happening right now, government needs to divert attention. The anti-immigrant tirade works so well when people are scared as heck about how they're going to keep making a living, with all the good jobs going overseas. Immigrants are the classic scapegoat.
Our economy couldn't handle paying farmworkers decent wages in our current state, and it won't, as long as we can get the cheap labor. |

thats why nobody does anything about immigration, they know that the economy depends on these great people |

TRUE!!! only the white are against, but these whites have good jobs, and if the illegals leave the country, these are the same that WONT will work in the fields, and for that pay...never in the life! these people that are against illegal people dont suffer of hungry, have education, have a good house...have everything, they dont know what is suffering, that's y they talk. just bcz they are racist. if they could, they expulse any non-white of the country, but how they can't, they just punish the illegals |
