Quote by: CoffeeSaint We need Mexicans in this country. They work harder than I ever could -- harder than most of you have, I'll bet. For less wages, which they then spend to improve the lives of their families. I cannot for the life of me see what's wrong with people coming here to work.

Build a wall and shoot people? What is the matter with you?
WHAT ARE WE PROTECTING? |

I'm tired of having my hard-earned money taken in order to subsidize big growers that want to pay minimum wages to these people, then pass their social costs on to the taxpayer.
