    The immigrants in America do have jobs that people want. With the recession here people are taking any job they can get. Where I live, the standards are pretty high now and I cant even get a job. It is really annoying that the people who came here illegally are taking all of the jobs that us hard working legal Americans could have.

    The only reason they are being hired...Cheap labor!

    Before the recession hit no one wanted to do the jobs illegals get. Not being able to find work now and being willing to do the jobs you would never do previously is desperation. Americans created the huge amount of available illegal work, now they understand the consequences of that.

    That's a myth.

    Those "jobs that Americans don't want to do" that Democrats scream about are all done by white people here.

    In the end they will lay their freedom at our feet and say to us, 'Make us your slaves, but feed us.'

    Those "jobs that Americans don't want to do" don't exist.

    Americans aren't doing them because illegal immigrants work for less because they're not subject to minimum wage. And employers don't have to pay twice what they pay the person to the government and in state-mandated benefits.

    A $7.25 an hour citizen actually costs around $20 an hour to employ in most states; and at least around $15 in the rest.

    A $5 an hour illegal only costs $5 an hour to employ.
