I'm confused. You say that hiring "illegal" aliens causes pay to go down? How? How does hiring "illegal" aliens for low paying jobs cause pay for other jobs to go down?? All you can find are minimum wage jobs? Are you saying that "illegal" immigrants are taking the high paying jobs then?? You can't have it both ways.

What he said is correct and you are wrong again. Under capitalism the price of labor is determined by supply vs demand. Bring in more supply and the price falls. It is totally false that the aliens are doing "jobs that no one else wants". Americans would be glad to do those jobs at fair wages. Fair wages which they could command if not for the unfair influx of labor supply.
