Immigration agents and local law enforcement in five states today arrested the Depew owner of seven Mexican restaurants, 11 restaurant managers and 45 illegal aliens in a scheme that authorities said involved smuggling workers from Mexico to work for low wages in the restaurants
There is no way he could earn enough cash with a low education that is so very very common among illegals, or get a job a higher education would warrant. Most likely he purchased the restraunt chain jointly with other illegals, or as said before he was a drug runner.

yeah, a true hero, right?? He comes here illegally, acquires a restaurant, hires other illegals, pays them sub-standard wages, and becomes a success competing against citizens that follow the rules. Sure, the new version of The American Dream - lie, cheat, steal, bend the rules.

Success is measured solely by the wealth one manages to accumulate.
I have to agree with you. People are always saying things like "its better for our economy to have low level workers that aren't paid a lot" or "we're doing them a favor". We are not helping them out by paying them incredibly low wages, and we are not doing ourselves a favor by employing another country or workers who cannot be taxed and are likely taking government benefits. COME HERE LEGALLY.
