Your lawn guy, home improvement or roofing crews, your favorite Mexican restaurant, the people who built a house that you are considering?

In other words, is your money supporting your beliefs?

Are you willing to cut your own grass to save America?

Are you still fighting against Trump? We don’t like people like you either.

It’s a fluid situation.

Someone asking a probing questions that causes you to engage in self-reflection doesn’t mean that person is a lefty

No, you’ve asked a stupid question. I don’t “employ” anyone. As for businesses or vendors I use, I don’t know what the situation is with their employees is. Have no way of knowing. What are you driving at here?

Can't stop there if you standard is to not "employ illegal labor"

Can't stay at hotels that have maids
Can't eat out at virtually any restaurant
Don't buy any produce at the store unless you know the farmer who picked it

I’m implying, correctly it seems, that you don’t care enough about removing illegal immigrants to voluntarily stop your money from supporting them and the businesses that employ them.

Now that you have called me a liberal, and implied that I am stupid, I am guessing your next move will be the emoticon.

I agree.

What sacrifices are people here really willing to make?

It goes way further than that.
Have or use any of these built in the last 15 years? It was most probably built with some Illegal labor.

House
Hospital/Clinic
School
Retail Store
Grocery Store
Etc the list long.

That’s true. And obviously one can’t account for everything.

But someone can ask about the status of the crew coming to put a new roof on one’s house

Did you not read what I wrote? How do I know whether the restaurant I’m going to is employing illegal labor? I don’t think about it. Do I care on some level? Sure. Believe it or not, there was a time (not so long ago) when our country functioned just fine without these illegal invaders. We did just fine.

Negative. I'm too poor to employ anyone these days. That yard work is handled by me.

And I'm not the spying on business. I don't give-a-shite what my favorite restaurant does, as long as they don't spit in my food.

But if I see a Democrat thriving on their use, I'll turn them in... hoping for a reward.

My ex-wife got a young Mexican gal as live in housekeeper, before we divorced. She stole all of the jewelry and disappeared the same day.

How on earth did our country ever function in the 90s, 80s, 70s and so on. Maybe think about this good and hard and you’ll come to an understanding about why these invaders are harming our country so much.

Funny story...

I used to live in the Midwest and around the holidays there used to be truck loads full of illegal aliens that would put up your outdoor Christmas lights for $75.00. They drove by, noticed I was getting ready to put mine up and offered to do it for the 75.00. I agreed and as they were finishing up I asked for a written receipt, knowing damn well they wouldn't or "couldn’t" write one up...they really couldn't speak. So they stopped but they were essentially finished anyway. We began arguing about it, so I threatened to call the cops or ICE. Needless to say, they got scared and left so I got a free light installation, a gutter cleaning and entirely new light hooks.

I cut my own grass, I do my own home improvement and make Mexican food as good as most restaurants. I have the means to hire it all done but it keeps me busy and active plus it saves me money for investments.
