Dummy, what type of jobs do you think that poor people are working and could be working?
And why do you think the minimum wage is only $7.25?
Because they can find cheaper labor (illegal) for most labor.
And there's no way of knowing how many jobs Americans could be doing are occupied by illegal immigrants, because um . . . they're illegal.
Why do you illegal capers have to degrade low wage low skilled Americans in order to make your point?
Tons of studies have shown that illegal immigration hurts the people at the bottom of the economic totem pole.
Instead of telling them to "look in the mirror", you should not be supporting kicking AMERICAN CITIZENS when they are down.
Half of Texas' construction workers are ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS
There's 400,000 illegals working in that one state alone
Half of Texas' Construction Workers Are Undocumented Immigrants - D Magazine
You're telling me that Black people working at Walmart, McDonalds, and other low wage jobs wouldn't be better off working construction?
The
Commission of Civil Rights even did a study and found that it disproportionately hurt the Black community

Idiot, I never said that minimum wage is 7.25. Nikka u brought up 7 dollars an hour
. I think u were implying that all or most undocumented immigrants are earning 7.15 an hour.
Dummy, the labor market's going to force them to pay a living wage.
When they can't find any workers who'll work for $7.15/hr, they'll have to raise their wages or go out of business.
I informed you, based on that article u cited to, that there are some undocumented workers earning above 7 dollars an hour. In fact 15 or 20 dollars an hour.
U should know that a lot of them are using stolen social security numbers to work at legit jobs.
What jobs poor people can work? The fukk are u talm bout.
There is designated work for rich or poor people in america?
I thought this was America where you have better shot to raise yourself from poverty with education and/or hardwork and/or ingenuity and/or just dumb luck as compared to alot of other places in the world
.
Idiot, i can point to a ton of studies that say undocumented workers contribute more to the economy than they take away and studies that show some americans who take more than they put in with things such as claiming disability benefits and other social welfare benefits.
There are a lot of undocumented workers that are paying federal taxes and into social security with every paycheck without benefits coming to them.They are also spend money that they earn into the economy.
Im not degrading low skill and low educated american workers but in this economy especially when it is thriving, they can coexist even in construction jobs or farming jobs if americans want to work those jobs.
Again, you are retarded if you think anyone or anything is stopping undocumented workers from coming in illegally and working. A wall or watever bullshyt. People crossing the southern borders and others overstaying Visas to work have been coming to America really unchecked for two centuries. It has been lowkey accepted by the powers that be.
We have been needing immigration reform that recognizes migrant worker for a long time. At least you can monitor employers and give immigrant or migrant some rights in the labor market.
And news flash dumbass, there are low skill jobs that pay low wages in a national economy. That is a given. Jobs that probably wouldnt exist if undocumented workers didnt occupy them.
Your stupid azz along with those dumb azz trump supporters demonizing undocumented worker where they are really harmless in the grand scheme of things.
Again dumbass, individual incidents of employers exploiting undocumented workers occur but their impact on the national economy (and i.e. wage stagnation) is miniscule. Undocumented workers represent a fraction of overall immigration nationwide. Unauthorized immigrants may be numerous in certain industries but again they are at only at 5 percent of the national labor force. Immigrants both legal and unducumented are overall 17 percent of the national labor force.
Keep on with that simple minded dumb shyt and cosign fukk shyt like seperating kids from their parents, wasting resources on ice round ups to send out people who are just gonna come back in and blocking legal asylum seekers when they are trying to escape violence.
It is retards like you who helped get Orange 45 elected and could get him elected again. Lowkey cosigning the main false narrative theme of his 2016 campaign and his presidential administration
.
You should be directing you anger at conservative policies that have broken up the power of labor unions when it comes to wage stagnation and not the boogie man of " illegal" immigrants.
Low skill workers have little to no protection in the capitalist system that favors the employer without labor unions.
Be dumb brehs and think you woke by scapegoating people who really have no use in your overall vitriol but lowkey and unintentionally cosign the republican conservative agenda.
