The Hidden Costs of Illegal Immigration
By John A. Ross (04/05/06)
The hidden high-tech opportunities and jobs that illegal immigration is costing America is a secret socialists that call themselves liberal and global economy advocates do not want Americans to know. For years American manufacturers have known that they can affordably develop and manufacture labor saving equipment that would replace the jobs illegal immigrants routinely perform in our fields. Permitted to exploit technology available, American manufacturers would revolutionize, for starters, farming and many other jobs “that Americans will not do today,” according to President Bush.
By discouraging farming equipment and other manufacturers to not produce labor saving devices, policy makers force food prices up and deprive manufacturers and their employees of opportunities. Illegal immigration is the safety valve that prevents Mexico from experiencing a revolution and is justification policy makers use to place obstacles before our entrepreneurial equipment manufacturers. In other words, Americans must pay higher food prices, absorb public assistance costs (medical and welfare) and forget about the high-tech jobs that would be created by our manufacturers.
The majority of illegal residents that sneak into America come because there are not opportunities, literally none, for them in Mexico and the other places they are running from. Crime, corruption and the greed of the 200 families that own Mexico ensure that the status quo does not change. Sincere Mexican patriots that love their country are the only ones that will change that country into a nation of laws, like America, and not men. Many years ago, Americans determined that Mexico is too big for the U.S. to manage and it rests with the Mexican people to resolve their problems there and not import them to the America.
In summary, the root of America’s illegal immigration problem is that Mexicans refuse to enforce their own laws and insist that we look the other way when they break our laws.
