You spout this bullshit and yet you support an increase in a regulated minimum wage. Fucking spare me. Just what percent of food costs do you suppose are a function of field worker wages? I would hazard a guess that they are less than 1%

But its fine for people such as Justin bieber to parade around the US without a green card because their occupation is "entertainer" and "artist". Dont forget the "religious organizations" that skirt the immigration laws as well. There are many ways around a green card if you have the right connections, but these in large don't benifet the working class.

i have no workable solution to the wage gap except to return to the tax schedule that worked. (which wouldnt change your taxes much but would change bill gates taxes a lot.

its ridiculous to talk about because they arent going to let that happen and they are in control of the policy and therefor they are in control of YOU.
and furthermore for those of you who believe that deporting people will make the problem better, they are controlling you in yet another way.

right zappa only cares about stuff he has been trained to disagree with.
rich people GOOOD... starving people BAAAAAAAD.
shrug. i dont really like tax solutions (which is why i said i didnt really have one). but the fact remains theres a lot of money which is grossly needed by people at the bottom that people at the top are letting sit on the shelf to rott.
its a problem anywhere greed and power unite.
personally im ready and prepared for anarchy.
dont take my taxes, dont pave the roads. dont provide schools, dont give us a military, let all the illegals in. let us learn to get along or shoot each other until the population decreases significantly enough that we agree to get along.
the system that was put in place is no longer functional. kicking out illegals is a waste of money and time and doesnt even begin to solve anything.
and as soon as it got accomplished frank lentz and rush limbaugh would have to come up with another non-starter thing to get the nut jobs worked up about.... and it will be the same shit all over again, you'd simply decide that it was SOMEONE elses fault...
it would do people good to realize that when they are all saying the same shit, and having the same solutions its because their brains are poisoned by the same propagandists.

Climbing trees without safety equipment is scary enough , now imagen doing that after smoking a fatty and drinking a brew. The drugs never interfere with the work , we got the job done and noone ever got hurt ( while on drugs that is)

that money gets pissed back into the economy tho, everyone wins, it's just not directed at anyone in particular.
they pay for all those services, try to live with those services without a job, unless u're just a kid, it aint gonna happen anytime soon pancho
and for the last time, everyone pays taxes, everyone is fucked unless u're like filthy rich pretty much, get used to it folks, u should have been by now already.
"everyone wins"
Nope, not the US worker, do you understand the basic concept of demand and supply? US wages are stuck in the mud for decades now and illegals are one of the mains reasons for that fact.
"they pay for all of those services"
Nope, they cost over 8 times more in tax revenue than they contribute, that's called being a burden.
"that money gets pissed back into the economy"
The profits from cheap wages? So what? That's the worse economic argument I have ever heard, try again.
You are entirely correct that about this. What he fails to understand is that the American citizens who would otherwise get these jobs are now welfare cases. How much in taxes are they paying?
You are incorrect zappa as you know ive been working without papers for a while the people who came in with papers either were lazy or could not handle the job , or were fired promptly... You mericans think you should be treated differently because your a citizen lolol illegals have to do the jobs because noone else will.

rxb said: so you think the answer to 90 million workers out of work is to remove 10 million illegal workers.
and im the one spewing nonsense?
please go maths
nothing says "i have no idea what the right place to focus on is"
like "i can solve 1/10th of the problem by being a bigot so lets do that"
Why is requesting that any illegal person should be deported "being a bigot"? I don't care if they are from Mexico, Canada, Russia, or even my own homeland of Poland, if they are here illegally they should be gone.
This is a an economic issue, why are you so tied into the culture and race aspect? Hitting too close to home?
I also don't care if there are only 50,000 illegals, they ALL need to be deported.
Deportng all the illegals would probably put the US into an economic depression. There would absolutely be very serious food shortages and devastating inflation.
What fucking nonsense. Farm worker wages would rise to be enough to attract employees who are otherwise standing on the street corner sucking dick and collecting welfare. Maid service wages would rise as would construction wages. It would almost eliminate the underground tax economy. There are over 10 million. Out damned spot, out.
It's not nonsense. It pretty simple economics, which is most likely why you don't believe it. Modern conservatism clings to these utopian economic theories that simply don't pan out. You have to face reality at some point, you want to kick the brown people and you just can't believe that they are actually an integral part of the economy.
You can't remove millions of people from the labor force without causing major inflation. Even small changes in the cost of food production would be disastrous. And even after labor costs spike, there still will be huge shortages - the fact is that some if these unfilled jobs do not get filled even when pay is raised aggressively. There really are jobs that Americans won't do. We know this because it happens ALL THE FUCKING TIME.
"You can't remove millions of people from the labor force without causing major inflation"
Bullshit, when you already an excess pool of labor, you can boot out the cheap illegal workers and then watch wages of all US workers GO higher, that's not bad inflation.
"there will be huge shortages"
Instead of just making nonsense up at the spur of the moment, prove it!! Shortages of food? Total nonsense. Offer a decent wage and a US worker will take the job, if that squeezes profit margins so be it, it's NOT going to cause heavy food inflation. 
I thought you wanted higher wages for workers? The first instant wages could go higher, you call for economic disaster!!! You really don't know much about basic economics, I'm sorry but it's the truth.

Fair enough. I just went on a rant and came out being a complete asshole to you. Although it was directed at your post, my thoughts were more on illegal immigration as a whole. My bad about that, but I always assume other immigrants are cheating the system when I see something like what you posted.
I'm Brazilian and am very familiar with the Cuban community here in the Miami area. I'm glad you pointed out that our "stupid" government give you guys papers because it is indeed a stupid idea that should be stopped.
You're Cuban so I have no gripe with you. You are legally allowed to be here although I think the method in which you gained your legality is bullshit. Sounds like you agree with me.
Sorry again for being such a dick.

Looks like I'm going to have to educate you once again my friend, the tax chart you have really isn't truthful at all, yes those years that the tax rates were high were great economic periods of time, but no one PAYED those HIGH RATES!!! If you were wealthy and a high earner, there will so many different ways too avoid paying those silly rates, they all had great tax accountants that knew every trick.
Do you know why the 1950's, 60's, 70's and 80's were great economic decades in the US? TIGHER LABOR MARKET!!

Shoddy Mexican labor? Lol. I think a lot of people prefer their labor after dealing with entitled, lazy Americans who rip them off with crappy quality workmanship
Again, i don't know whee you live or what you do for work, but i am in the construction field. My work is dead on nuts. Every time. Because thats how it is supposed to be. I charge $800-$1100 to replace a water heater. The heater itself costs about $500. The other parts necessary for code tend to cost somewhere between another $50-$200. so the labor cost to hire me to install a new water heater is about 200-300 bucks. For that price, i will pick up the heater, drive it to your house, take out the old heater, install the new one, and haul the old one away. That is cheap as hell. My old landlord hired a guy off the corner to put in her new water heater, because she thought i was too expensive. She had to pick up the heater. He didn't have the tools or materials necessary to do the job. He installed the heater on an unlevel surface with no earthquake straps. He reused the old fucked up water supply lines. He did not install an expansion tank. He did not install a drip leg on the gas inlet. He did not install a smitty pan. He did not run the Temperature and pressure relief drain to the outside, or even to the floor. But he did it for $60. This guy is a monster, who left the job in a completely unsafe condition, and when someone gets burned by the T&P or when it floods out the garage, the guy is gonna be nowhere to be found. But i guess thats great because the homeowner got to "save" $140
Ok great story, yeah you convinced me that everyone from that guys country is just like him. Hey if you make the guy black, you could totally reuse this in one of the pubs regular threads about lazy black people.

SirShroomsAlott said: I agree with you on just about everything to be honest, and I don't have a problem with pedro feeding his kids and understand he's doing what he has to do to survive. But as a business owner I can't skip taxes and get away with it like pedro can, not only would I be breaking the law, I'd end up getting the IRS involved and into one giant clusterfuck that would end up hurting me even more.
A LOT of illegals have their income withheld like everyone else because they are using fraudulent social security numbers. What they don't do is file a return and get refunds, and as low wage workers they probably never would owe very much in taxes to begin with.
I wasn't trying to convince you that all Mexicans, Guatamalans, El Salvadoreans et. are lazy or bad or whatever. They are just people trying to make a living. However, in experience in the Los Angeles area construction field, i have seen almost daily examples of absolutely shitty, dangerous, work being done by illegals. It's not that they aren't trying, its that they haven't been trained properly. The problem is exacerbated by the fact that hungry people will say yes if you ask them if they can do _____. You should try this sometime. just head down to wherever the day laborers stand around in your neighborhood, pull up and when they rush your car, ask the first 2 guys if they know how to build a deck. Then ask them if they can do plumbing. Then ask them if they know how to hang drywall. Then ask if they can wire up a few recessed lights for you. The answer to these questions will be yes. Pretty impressive right? Illegals must be great at construction if they can master so many trades right? My point is that i'm not against "brown people" i'm against shit work driving down the value of my excellent work. In fact, its kinda pissing me off that there are people in here trying to imply (or just flat out accuse) that i'm a racist, because of this. If we were talking about okies instead of mexicans, my point would be the same.
