re: Are you employing illegal labor?

I am in no way for it.
The problem started in the 80's when everyone was being told they have to go to college. Today everyone goes whether they have the grades or not.
What happened was the union went away in the South anyway and the trade schools went away and nobody was attending any apprenticeship programs.
Now none of the people who went to college to get useless degrees or dropped out can do a trade and that left a void that is filled with illegals.

We switched to a robot lawn mower. I highly recommend! Better than any gardener we've employed.

I am sure I do.. I do not ask gardners' or crews who work on my homes for papers.

My AC, plumbing, and yard work are all handled by white people born in America.
Everything else, I do.
If I ever find out a restaurant employs illegals, I'll stop going there just to appease you.

But do you grow and harvest the food that goes into your Mexican dishes?
I doubt it, so you're contributing to the decline of America.

Have you made any effort to determine if your money supports business that hire illegal immigrants?
How, exactly, would one do that? Ask the manager at the local Mexican restaurant to see everybody's green card?
Why do you think that law enforcement doesn't prosecute businesses that hire ilegals?
Because studies show that somewhere north of 70% of all Illegals obtain credible looking fake credentials as part of their journey north across the Rio Grande. If the employers can't spot them as fakes, how would I?

I pay a guy with Zelle. I have no clue who is actually doing my yard.

You think illegals are working skilled trade jobs?
I don't think so. Those require licensing and bonding.
Swinging hammers, putting up drywall, painting, sure.
Welding, electrical work, plumbing, no way. Not an ani significant numbers, anyway.

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.
Is literally every Mexican we see illegal? How would we go about knowing?

So its ok if they just
Form, pour and finish the concrete,
Frame the structure, deck it, roof it, install brick, stucco, insulate it, hang and finish the drywall, paint it, install the counters, flooring, etc as long as the Electrical, Plumbing and Mechanical is done by Americans?
Dont think illegals are not roughing in plumbing, mechanical and electrical.

So are you for or against using illegal slave labor? Are you willing to give up your Nike tennis shoes?

Yeah, that's exactly what I said, you fricking idiot. I was arguing that it's o.k. for illegals to be here working. That was the point. Y'all populists are so fricking stupid it really makes me wish that stupidity was painful.

I doubt it. Again, not in significant numbers. Because if something were to go wrong with it, the employer would lose the ensuing lawsuit, guaranteed. You might find some employers stupid enough to do something like that, but I doubt it en mass.

Now that you have called me a liberal, and implied that I am stupid, I am guessing your next move will be the emoticon.
Your take is absurd, no, I would not spend money at places that I know employ illegals but its not as though they post a roster of employees and their legal status
