I'm all for people coming here on a work visa / etc. The problem is these people A. don't want to take the time to do it (or can't) and B. If they do come here legally to work they're just another factor in the work force, meaning they can and most likely will be replaced by someone else. Illegal labor is obviously much different than legal labor.

People going ape shit about "immigrants making up this country" sure, but most of them came through Ellis Island, not just waltzing into this country. Some sure, but most came here "properly" and I use the term loosely. Aside from slave labor and the such, which wasn't really a choice of those peoples.

HLS should start driving by Home Depot about 2 hours before it opens in the morning and go from there, and if you're from the IE you know why.
