    I watched a couple of Hispanic guys hanging 12? Sheetrock in a strip mall. On Sunday.
    They had their sheet together, so to speak.

    I had a contractor show up at 0800 to put a new shingle roof on my shop.

    He had two beaners with a stake truck. They climbed up on the roof in the hot sun. Took all the old shingles off. Broke for a paperbag lunch on the roof.
    By 1600 they were through and left.

    The roof looked great, I could not find a nail or shingle on the ground.

    As far as roofers, they have no peers.

    you should see the ones that can't afford a nail gun.they have a tin box full of nails hanging in front of the chest and do it almost as fast as a slow guy with a nail gun.

    i had one roofing company introduce a mex as a foreman...they did job and i used my bucket truck to lift shingles to high 2nd story peaked roof and tractor to dispose of the shingles...2 weeks later walking out of the dining room onto a closed porch water dripped out of the top of the door frame on me...when the shower passed i got onto the 1st story porch roofs and found the top of the new roofs where they butted up to the 2nd story siding had NEVER been sealed..i went to town and got 20 tubes of silicone caulk and sealed/filled gaps on all four sides of our big farmhouse ...later found out the buzzards has subbed the job to this illegal mex and he was later kicked out of a bigger town with regs about licensing... now the roof has worked fine for years but i thought i had got an old family been in business for years roofers...watch out if you hire a roofer out of Pratt kansas

    You get a much better roof with nails vs staplers.

    Generalization but true: They work hard, they obey the laws, they pay their taxes, and they assimilate in order to become Americans. This is immigration that will help our nation. Accept these, not the uneducated, unskilled, and unassimilatable whose beliefs directly contradict those held by most Americans.

    Yeah because WE are supporting their whole family here.
    Here?
    Every school day at the local Grammar School:
    White ladies drop their kids at school and go to work.
    Lupe drops them off and walks home.

    Well they are already here and paying into social security no matter who's number they are using. We could round them up and send them home but try finding any Americans that have grown up here to work that hard LOL.

    I fully believe the illegal alien problem has been created by the willingness to hire them. We could have sealed the boarder years ago but chose to bring in the labor.

    To answer your question, NO but we should certainly provide a means for work visas and allow hard workering decent people into the country to assimilate and become Americans.

    Legal-Illegal Bah-Bah-Bah. The vast majority of trades today are Hispanic. Most are willing to work harder than "us" people. Kids today just don't want to get into the trades.

    I have a 12/12 pitch roof. When I had it replaced several years ago the co. owner came out and gave the estimate. He said he'll put his Mexican crew on it. He actually made the statement that they'll do it three days faster, and it will be a better job than his American crew. He said "they" (the American crew) will bitch about the pitch. His Mexican crew did a fantastic job. They worked basically sun up, to sun down three straight days and did excellent work, cleaned up the site every evening, especially detail work like making sure the drip edges were perfect with the shingles etc.

    That's because they have been taught not to by their parents, grandparents, schools, etc. They have been taught you are a second class citizen if you work in the dirty finger trades, and it shows in the wages a "tradesperson" makes.

    The public school systems are indoctrination centers, places where the teachers teach the students to continue with school after High School. To which is fine but everybody cant sit on their fat ass and make a living.

    The money flows next to the colleges. Its about the money, then to teach liberalism.

    Schools are a business now. Teaching is secondary. Around this area a superintendent of district makes 150,000 plus to manage the place, manage no less teachers,then gets fired early in his contract for deficating on the athletic track. Walks out early and collects on balance of contract. Then the next one walks in and gets caught skimming cash and repeat and so on.

    The government is staving off bankruptcy with their entitlements programs with the use of Illegals to become taxpayer citizens. Small business work them and pay no benefits or little as possible and The large corporations pay less for material and labor and get more profits for themselves.

    It's a win win for them until A.I. machines take over manual labor in the coming next coming 20 years. After that is anybody's guess but I think the outcome will be the NWO take over with universal income with mandatory birth control for all who are left alive.[:o)]

    Much has been said about the possible impact of automation: A Forrester study estimates that 6 percent of jobs will be replaced by robots within four years; others say half the world's jobs will be gone by 2035.

    One potential idea for counteracting a future that involves massive job losses is universal basic income, a government-provided monthly or yearly stipend given to each citizen. GiveDirectly, a non-profit company that gives donations directly to impoverished people in the form of cash, is currently running an experiment in Kenya that could provide answers as to just how feasible this is.

    Lots of them don't pay into social security. They are paid in cash.
