We need the immigrants!! And they need us

I wondering what America thinks of the really hard workers who do very manual labor....

For those of us living in villas and condominiums, the immigrant men keep our lawns well manicured.

I was watching from out my back window...backbreaking work....never stopping for a second even though they're not being watched.

Raking..raking...making a pile then putting all the debris into a large cylinder container...to be emptied into their trucks.

I'm sure they don't make much money...not even sure if they have hospitalization or social security.

They are willing to live in incredibly substandard housing — witness all the garage renovations found in foreclosure housing. They are willing to live with others in a room in houses full of strangers. For these reasons, for many employers, they are more desirable as employees

They're very poor people....but very hard working.   Wonder if they find contentment when they fill up the big dump truck....to be moved on to the next location.

Are they thinking about their families back in Mexico, Guatamala or Colombia...or wherever...and of the money that they'll be sending home.

Rice and beans...one's a starch and the other a legume.   Is their enough nourishment so that they can labor another day.

I wonder what all the fuss is about ... immigration!   They're doing us a favor!    Donald Trump, I wonder if you have any kind of a conscience.


What goes around ... comes around

how brave you are,,,,such a hot topic...

only thing is i've never seen any doing our landscaping that would be from haiti....i'd say most are from mexico, guatamala or other south american countries

i don't know for sure how i really feel about it...i do know that lots of the e's going around about services they get are mostly not true, and i also don't know if any unemployed americans would work like they do all day in this heat..

i don't get why there is such an uproar over arizona checking legality...if you and i got pulled over the first thing we have to prove is that we have a license to drive...

i get a tad irritated when i see illegals at near riot over their "rights"....if they were citizens, paid taxes, etc, then they would have a voice..

it's a very complicated issue..and i am glad you aren't afraid to say what you believe
