Re: $1000 Video Contest: Community Values & Immigration

you have a really soothing tone of voice. Balanced.

The C-Span video is from the hearing "Illegal Immigration and African American Workers"

One professor who testified made the point, we are losing hundreds of thousands of jobs overseas. These people can scale down into the physical labor market, but for the people who are native to this market, they can't scale up.

This means the blue collar workers have to compete against each other, illegal immigrants, and people who are displaced due to globalization.

I agree the US is a country of immigrants, but labor shortage you speak of is not in the job market most illegals fit into.

The majority of immigrants come from south of the boarder, and are competing in the same job market as our blue collar work force. My lost his $20 per hour construction job, to illegals who were happy to work for $12.

Workers can't bargain for rights when they are in constant fear of losing their jobs. Check out this C-Span hearing tinyurl(.)com/6dx7ou

Do you have to wait until the contest is done?
