There's no room in my life for hate, bro.
I'm just wondering why you're so worked up about these guys getting paid for an honest day's work.

It is frustrating... seeing jobs taken from american ppl like myself... if I lost my job I'd be sol for a while... try to get a job at a lawn maintenance service... they tell u to fuck off if u no habla inglese... if I had to pick fruit for a living I'd starve to death cause there's a dozen guys who don't have to pay taxes who will take less money and admitted probably work harder than I would... I don't hate ppl but the corruption that goes on in this world stemmed from greed.... whatever

Working through a labor agency u r still required to prove citizenship and pay taxes to a ss#.... and at min wage how can they be making the same as someone making 20/h otb?
I'm talking about the guys who hang out around the train station or the Home Depot or even the shape up hall in Mt Kisco that is there specifically for day laborers. They even have English classes for the ones that don't get picked on any given day.
I already went through how they get the rough equivalent of a $20hr gross paycheck.

Ah yes I'm familiar with this type of place... and I agree wholeheartedly that immigrant labor surely drives corruption in the lower working class.... must be nice to avoid taxes.... I pull usually 15 hrs overtime every week which pretty much covers my taxes for said week so I end up making my flat rate minus the ot.. which sucks cause I know I'm not getting a whole lotta that money back... and I still think if the migrant (illegal) workers were to be taken out of the scenario we have more than enough unemployed americans to cover those jobs... its unfortunate that a corrupt few muck shit up for the rest of us

Yes we do. And quite a few of the improperly admitted to college who could use those starting out jobs to gain work experience and a work ethic
