I have worked with Mexican workers who could work for way less than I could afford to do. They also drove 5-6 guys in a Toyota pickup to get to work and all lived in the same rental. When I inquired how they could afford to work for such low wages they told me they would mail most of their earnings back to their families in Mexico where American dollars were worth more and so it was worth it to them. Then they too would head back down to Mexico after the work season would end... So I believe if they had to live up here they would have to work for more money since the cost of living in the U.S. is greater than living in Mexico. Kind of made me think, " I wish I could go somewhere where the money that I earned could last me longer." But I was born in America and want to be able to live and work in my own country as well." Yeah I would do the same if I was born in Mexico, I don't blame them doing what they must do to survive as well. But we don't have a nearby country we can head to for better paying wages and reap the same kind of benefits from it, as they were able to do.

ROFL! That full of baloney arguement. Mexicans are no more or less stupis than anyone else. I know that for a FACT. So don't try to lie to people.
We used to travel to El Paso and I see ABSOLUTELY NO DIFFERENCE among drivers. In fact, the Mexicans were MORE POLITE. El Paso has freways as confusing and complex as Minneapolis. Except in Minneapolis, the Americanos will honk and curse at you, if you are hesitant.
It's a supply and demand world. Always was. Always will be. If Mexican Joe can do it for less and the service is the same, the work goes south.
Simple as a pimple.

I think we can all see who the idiot is here. But thanks for the well wishes. Surpriser wrote: <quoted text> Well now. It is OBVIOUS t hat you've never been displaced by a low wage worker. Hopefully you work place will see an opportunity to replace you with a low wage employee so that you'll lose your house and end up destitute. Don't think it can happen to you ? Think again. If it does, don't come whining to me, but beileve me, you'll change your tune about this subject FAST. Friggin idiot.

Part of the scam used by illegals. Declare 9 dependents... if the employer even bothers with taxes, etc. Use phony IDs, a new set yearly. File taxes at year's end. Nine dependents declared maximized EIC (earned income credit). Ilegal receives several thousand dollars of EIC, money taken from you and handed to illegal. Fake ID used and with new false ID obtained for the new year makes it very hard if not impossible to track down the illegal alien. Phony ID also allows the illegal to use hospital emergency room for all their health care needs with no way for the hospital to track them down and make them pay. Citizens pay for the health care of MILLIONS of illegals via higher health insurance costs and for those without insurance higher fees when paying with cash. That's one reason what used to be a $50 doctor/hospital bill is now $500 or more dollars. In Los Angeles county fully two-thirds of ALL births are two illegal aliens. You and I are paying for that cost. Billions of dollars yearly it costs the citizens to support those who are competing with us for jobs, housing and health care. A large percentage of jail and prison inmates are illegals. One study estimated that somewhere between 12 and 25 citizens die daily by the actions of illegals. Car accidents, assaults, etc..... No one knows how many are harmed daily by illegals that do not result in death but a Web search reveals a HUGE number of illegal-performed rapes, robberies, a host of crimes. But, complain about it and be prepared to be branded a racist, a xenophobe, even a card-carrying member of the KKK!!!!! Read the words of the many illegal alien invder supporters and one refrain stands out...... Illegal alien supporters who are Hispanic/Chicano/Latino constantly place their ethnicity before anything: the law, the USA, morality, etc. etc. etc. Do some reading and loyalty to ethnicity is the guiding theme for an ever-growing number of "Americans" who want their culture to become the dominant culture of the USA. The barbarians are not at the gate, folks. They are inside and pose a clear and present danget to the USA.

So what can we do about it? Georgie boy just decided to put up more fence despite violating 7 local laws. Mabey we should get together and some winter have about ten thousand decend on a small mexican town. Then demand social services?

They will wait all day for someone to move. No one knows who got there first, but no one will want to go out of turn, so they all just wait. I have never heard a Minnesotan curse at the slow drivers, and the slow drivers are all over the place.(Courteous to a fault.) Yes, the roads are hard to navigate because there are lakes everywhere, but its a nice scenic drive, even if you can't find where you are going.

Ship it by trail. It's the only safe, sure way. The roads won't be broken down. No truckers going to sleep and crashing into cars on the interstate, killing as many as 18 at one time.

Would also be waaay cheaper to send it by Trailways Bus. Most of the bus drivers stay awake. Truckers are waaaaaaaaaaay overpaid. They are crying "wolf." Time to get out the onion and break the union.

Trinity had racked up 1,123 violations in 604 inspections in the 12-month period leading up to Sept. 21, 2007. That averaged out to 112.3 violations per truck. here is another "flag Ship Company" D.O.T. had dog and ponyed for all the Senators. 12-month period ending Sept. 21, 2007, Avomex’s five trucks at that time had amassed 206 total violations in 172 inspections. That averages out to just slightly more than 41 violations per truck. since Sept. 22, 2007 through Jan. 22, 2008, Avomex received 71 more violations in 41 inspections – well on pace to top the 206 violations in the preceding 12-month period. and these are suspose to be two of the best companies in the program. Looking at your photo, you don't seem to be a American Indian. What is your heritage,German, Spainish,Italian, French ? WOW,I wonder what people were saying when your family started coming into the U.S. competing for jobs ? Please expalin the difference between then and now ?

The diffrence between then and now? easy my family came here legally, notice that word legally. my grand parents, became legal American Citizens, wow what a concept come here legally. we did not sneak across the border illegally, they didn't refuse to adapt to society, they did not refuse to learn the language. they did not work illegally and refuse to pay yearly income taxes. they did not pumpout kids like pez so they can use them as anchor babies.......but hey other then that no diffrence. and by the way I am proud to be Irish. But as for the actual topic, you know, what this thread is suspose to be about. pay close attn to what was written, the two companies listed were suspose to be model companies that the program was using as thier dog and pony show. look at D.O.T.'S own failure and out of service rates for those companies, any American company that had that many major violations would have thier dicks nailed to a board untill D.O.T. did a total company safety records audit. but Bush is Illegally pushing and forcing this program forward, even after congress cut off all funding and ordered that no funding be pulled from other programs to finance it. but Bush still is illegally running the program. that grasshopper is the problem Smooth Operator wrote: <quoted text> Looking at your photo, you don't seem to be a American Indian.

Will you then say it's ok ? Define legal? are you legal ? am i legal ? I think calling them illegal is just crutch. I would bet you that mine and your forefathers never became legal either, they just came to this country in search of a better life and never looked backed...

I have nothing against the mexican people, or the drivers, on a personal level....
But globalism will be the end of America...are high standard of living and high wages will be swept under the carpet when companies can now turn to cheap labour...but that's capitalism for you...The Capatolist are not loyal to any country, they only want to earn earn and earn...
