>>90879431>Most of them take undesirable jobs with low pay that a majority of born Americans don't want.I feel like this is a half truth though. Like, yes, there are people who view manual labor as "beneath them", but then you have a MASSIVE workforce of legal citizens who take great pride in being tradesmen (and make fucktons of money in exchange for having to unclog drains and install copper wiring).
They're "undesirable jobs", yes, but that's not why illegal immigrants are hired. An employer doesn't say "PSSH, I wouldn't want a WHITE AMERICAN to sully his hands with shit water, better hire a Mexican", they simply realize they can hire an illegal immigrant for pennies on the hour (rather than hiring a legal citizen and having to deal with all those silly expensive laws and ethics codes).
The problem isn't that "hurka durr Mexicans are takin Murrican jobs", it's that corporations are exploiting an underprivileged class illegally and while it's saving them tons of money, it's also killing the job market. It's a bigger issue than "immigrants took my job", it's a big chain of corruption that makes things shitty for everyone involved except for the guy at the top profiting off it all.
