Obviously if the company couldnt afford it they wouldnt have hired all these legals, they were just saving money using illegals.
Also I bring it up all the time, the paint industry, theres some good ones using legal workers, and they're getting the shaft cause of the company that hires illegals for 5 bucks an hour, which makes for shorter jobs. DOes that mean legal workers dont want to do the job? Of course not. There just needs to be uniform rules about employers hiring illegals to balance everything out.

Itll be interesting to see what is going to happen in Arizona, where they are going to punish employers who hire illegals. If things work out well I wouldnt be surprised to see it spread to other parts of the country.

all in the business. maximize profit as long as you can get away. who cares right or wrong. employers know and will take advantage of the situation.
