This is a very old article but I just found it the other day and I think it's an interesting discussion to have.

So basically when people loiter and trespass in front of your business the city rolls in and tells you, you have to provide, bathrooms, water, and shelter for said loiterers. I never cease to be amazed at the People's Republic of Kalifornia. How long before the crack addicts outside the Wawa trying to bum cigarettes are provided with state mandated hot meals forced from the company?

Home Depot should have hired security to put these clowns on their asses years ago. I mean seriously these illegal day laborers that hang out at Lowes or Home Depot in the morning make what $10 - 15/hr in cash. So back of the envelope calculation $20,800 non-taxed income MINIMUM if you could work most days. An American by contrast would need to be paid roughly 30 grand to match that. Then again you have to consider that an American making that wage wouldn't qualify for federal assistance (above the poverty line) like the illegal day laborers do in the form of section 8, food stamps, medicaid etc. Good fucking luck finding a 30 grand a year job with a benefits package like that.

I really don't see how people can live with themselves hiring these assholes and cheating an American out of doing an honest day's work. I'm willing to bet if a bunch of out of work union laborers showed up in front of somewhere and loitered around like that they would either be attacked or threatened by the current occupiers or the police would be called to remove them. I'm not even going to into the lumber yards and hardware suppliers Home Depot and Lowes put out of business to create a place for illegals to loiter.

It's just disgusting the pandering that goes on at the expense of the American worker. I know several people who have been out of work for years and are willing to do ANYTHING just to make ends meet and can't find a job. So to say that illegals do the jobs Americans don't want to do is bullshit, but nobody wants to admit it because then we'd have to have a real debate about how fucked up our economy is.

Kalifornia and detroit are coming to a state and city near all of us if illegal immigration and the false gods of political correctness and multi-culturalism are not stopped. They will disarm us first though.

Dafuq?

What is it with those idiots in Cali that like to hold the wrong party accountable for various problems?

""We welcome it," said Pablo Alvarado of the Los Angeles-based National Day Laborer Organizing Network. "We need it. The workers deserve it.""

Obviously stores in the area need to put up 8' privacy fences and tear down their signs so as to not be an attractive nuisance, kind of like what you have to do if you have a swimming pool.

This is a great idea. Now, if the legal ones will step inside, fill out an application, pay tax on your pay, and ask those people standing out front to just "move along" that would be great.

Home Depot and Lowes will NEVER stand on principle and pull out of the state. They will provide bathrooms, chairs, air conditioning, heat, even food and water if required.

Then, they will raise the cost of their items to offset this, making sure that THEY do not bear the burden of cost.

Just like the state, the more free shit they give away to those who ask the more they charge the individual (in taxes) who isn't doing the asking.

I still think illegal immigration will be solved if we elimnate things that draw them here like birthright citizenship and all the goodies the anchor babies can get. If people think the illegals dont eat the food they are stupid.

I also believe we should have our border agents be much more free to use deadly force. They are invading our nation.

Further we should not let illegals challenge deportations in the courts. IF they are here ilegally they are a criminal and need to go home except in very rare cases ( a son who is an anchor baby who served honorabley in our military mabye)
