Bad, I will lose half my workforce.  Or, maybe not.

Actually as a company we are shifting towards a more english speaking workforce.  We are requiring a minimum English apptitude for employment.  Longterm employees will get a 6 month window to improve their english before they are let go.

Lots of potential employees out there right now.

So it is not so bad.

part of me want's all the illegals gone... because of the expense and the drag on the system.... the other half of me wishes that all the ones that bust their ass everday doing whatever job they can find should be able to stay... and all the ones that are lazy and or commit crimes....
along with the people that legally live or were born here... lazy ass people... that feel they are entitled to everything... they can all go somewhere else...  We need to trade 1 lazy ass citizen for 1 hard working immigrant...

^ I agree completely. I've met many illegals and some of them are actually trying to make it here and they love it here and they're working two jobs and hardly sleeping just to be able to raise a family. And then there are the cunts who cross the border and expect everything to be magically better, and when it's not they have a major protest with signs that say "Illegal Immigrants Are People Too"... hahaha! They've got great senses of humor.

The scenrario is the same over here in the UK, lots of eastern european workers that have come here have left because of the economic downturn.

Yep.  Immigrants coming over and busting their ass to make the American dream are what built this country.  Not the lazy welfare losers we have today . . .

As Elite says, exactly the same thing going on over the pond here in Uk.

In Scotland we have free riders, people whoa re more than happy to just sit back and let some hard working soul pay for them to stay home. Hence an abundance of jobs. When Immigrant workers come over here from the Easters European countries and take up the jobs, they moan that theirs not enough jobs going round. Maybe if you got off your fat lazy arse instead of eating shite all day and smoking pot and watching Dvd's then there would be some fucking jobs.

Which is exactly why not that many will leave.

Until the law in enforced both in regards to the border and the employer nothing will change.

Its FANTASTIC actually!!!! GO HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As someone who lives in a border state (California), this is encouraging news!!! We are overpopulated as it is in this state! Not too mention the fact that there still are too many workers here anyway. When there are people standing around at Home Depot/street corners on any given day looking for work, it means there are too many of them here!!! If there were enough jobs, they wouldnt be standing around like assholes looking for them!

I work with 6 illegals. . . . . If they were sent home by the INS tomorrow, I wouldnt give a shit!

Shit, there are so many illegals in California it makes me sick. . . . . . GTFO! Our hospitals, county/state prisons, schools, communities are ALL affected by illegals NOT FOR THE BETTER I am sad to say! These are uneducated, poor people that continue to live in poverty EVEN while making more money here in the USA!! They live like animals (multiple people/babies in apts/homes), talk like immature children constantly (i understand spanish, I hear them talk everyday), treat women like objects (unless they are fellow Mexicans, then they sort of shape up).  I work at one of the best restaurants south of San Francisco, and they (mexicans) are all the same.  They arent mean people per se but they just arent benefitting American society whatsoever. . . .  They dont want to assimilate and dont give a fuck about this country, all they want is to make money and send it home.   

I dont think the government has done anything tangible whatsoever to rid us of this epidemic.  We have to have a fucking recession to get these people to leave!!!!????? FUCKING PATHETIC!

Its wealthy absolutely, and it sits next door to Atherton which IS THE RICHEST area code in the USA. . . . .

HOWEVER, next to Atherton lies Redwood City (where I grew up) or as the Mexicans like to call it "Mini-Michoacan". . . . . Redwood City is the hub of illegals on the Peninsula.

You drive through the richest areas of the country i.e. Palo Alto, to Menlo Park, through Atherton. . . .  then broke ass, run down, illegal filled Mexico/Redwood City.  You would think the Mexicans would try and improve their living conditions etc. but it literally looks like a town in Mexico!!! Its rediculous, its not like the Mexicans are working at shithole places not making any dough! They are working for the richest people in the Bay Area!! Its so fucking rediculous!! The reason Redwood City is a shithole is because they DONT CARE ABOUT THE TOWN THEY LIVE IN! They just keep sending the money they make back home, and are content with living in squalor. 

Take a trip down here, and see exactly what I am talking about!

I looked at Google Maps, and that sufficed. The difference between Atherton and Redwood City is amazing.

Also, I have been through Los Angeles; its not much different.

It is not their fault, look what the white man did to them in 1846 for Christ sake. They are still feeling the backlash from that.
