If the American is asking for 20 dollars the Hispanic is asking for 18 dollars and he does it fast with no drama.

question , is that $18 bucks documented as labor then by requiring taxes be paid ?

All I know is that the Mexicans that come here and provide services and work, come to work when they are supposed to, and finish the job and provide good quality and do it in less time thatn the locally born. I don't care what it is, construction or tire services. Work their asses off, do a good job and charge a competitive or fair price.

Just curious.

Are you a tariff defender?

You don't know those things. For one, Mexicans are known for their half-assed sloppy construction work. Don't take my word for it, have a look at the extensive library of YouTube foulups. And I personally have had many service problems in restaurant orders because their English is unacceptably bad, and their attitudes sucked when problems arose.

All this is moot anyway. The vast majority of citizens want them out, even the good employess and all-around decent ones.

Talked to 2 contractors who told me the same. Illegals deported or self deporting. The ones who are left are asking for more money because they know that they are in demand.

Evidence rather than anecdotes would be nice.

he Mexican / Central Americans don't do that or have those problems to any great extent. They come do the job, work their arse off make the same wage as the American but do it faster. No drama either.

Sounds like HB1 workers. Don't complain about 14hr days, family comes second to work, willing to work for the wages an American barely gets out of bed for.

Really are indentured servants. They can't make as much as Americans who don't want to do the work. They can't complain much or they will find themselves sent home. And construction companies take advantage of them.

He should be sitting in a federal jail for hiring illegal aliens

To Whom It May Concern,

If your business model is dependent on illegals to keep you profitable or operating at all, you're no better than a plantation owner in 1850.
