opinion:

we don't have an illegal immigration problem. We have an illegal employer problem. We need to have the derision, disgust, and disdain toward illegal employers that others have towards undocumented workers. They should be fined and imprisoned. They should be the subject of public ridicule.

Why do we, even here on DU, always speak of an immigration problem but rarely speak ill of the employers (essentially slave owners) that are often the WORST of the lot---poultry processors, peach orchards, janitorial services---that provide NO healthcare, NO vacation, terrible wages, terrible working conditions, etc etc etc.

To those that choose to focus on the WORKER (who you would NEVER choose to trade places with) rather than the employer (slave owner)...piss on ya'. You are a bigot and a part of the problem. The WORKER is one of US...the employer is one of THEM...the one making the money off the sweat of an underpaid exploited group...in other words a Repub scumbag.
