re: #1044 HoosierHoops

Maybe American Businesses that want to cheat paying an illegal person 5 bucks an hour should be forced to pay a fair wage in a fair market…Changes the landscape when you can’t leverage 5 bucks to say 10 or 12 bucks an hour..Kind of a bummer they would have to play by fair rules…
I know it will never happen..Oh well

If the immigration rules enacted in 1986 under Reagan were actually enforced, many of those illegals would be gone, unable to find work. Illegals have taken over most of the construction jobs in the South. Companies employing illegals can bid WELL UNDER competitors using legal or American workers. This trend is putting Americans out of work. I know a cook who used to run a concrete contracting firm. Guess why his business is gone?
