Alabama's new illegal immigration laws/rules

History is cyclical. It is the mexicans today, it was the blacks yesterday and the irish the day before that. I think that legislation that would naturalize the people that are here "illegally" would be better and will play a big part in the coming election. I run into plenty of white guys who basically are giving roofing away due to lack of business or what have you.

and that's most-likely the general consensus....

Alba....I can only speak from my own experiences in the western U.S....What you describe was indeed the case 20-30 years ago....However, today, it's quite different....The predominant Mexican illegal workforce is purely opportunistic culture....as one put it; "Their stomaches are in America, but there hearts are in Mexico".

That's a good one but we just need their backs not their hearts.lol.

TomB Said: Twill, Twill, Twill....That;s what the Pelosis & bunch want us/them to do....All the while, they continue to pull the strings....

You are right. Whoever is not bending over for the Federal Reserve, shoveling money @ Banksters, Bailing out Wall St" or is simply against welfare is truly Anti American. You are right Sir

Wish that were the case here!

Alba Said:

Robert Said: The illegals are leaving the state Alba!I think its great hope we can get a similiar law here,im sick of the pandering to illegals by the goverment.Im thinking moving to Alabama now as thier economy is booming,was in florida for labor day weekend and saw nothing but commercials for tradesmen in Alabama!!!!

If youre a roofer especially a residential one there is plenty of work because of tornadoes.if youre a contractor trying to put a crew together good luck with that.The contractors were used to hispanic crews that all needed was the address of the property the materials and the job was done.now they got bubbas working for them who constantly dont have gas money nor transportation ,lay out drunk or in jail.They promise to finish the roof by tuesday and next saturday theyre still working on it.

I agree with that sentiment. The hispanics that I see are very hard, conscientious workers. They do want to install the roofing right. They work hard trying to feed their families, just like I did when I was bringing my brood up.

The white guys are basically scammers. They will try to get away with as much as they can while pricing themselves like they do premium work.

Twill, Twill, Twill....That;s what the Pelosi's & bunch want us/them to do....All the while, they continue to pull the strings....

The protesters need to be @ Wall St and @ the border.

Wall St is shipping out jobs/ capital and the workers to eat the carcass are coming from Mexico.

And we as citizens JUST LOVE THAT CHEAP LABOR!

Understanding, there is good/bad in everything....I know of many Mexican illegal's who truly have/are trying to assimilate with the U.S.A. But, sadly,I must admit, the majority prefer diversity, and a lot have obvious contempt for the U.S.A. & it's citizens. It's much bigger than most think. So what we end up with is a half-hearted/insincere workforce.

The irony of it all, is that they, (Mex. illegals), are perpetuating the demise of the middle-class here in the U.S.A. Are we going to allow the U.S.A. to become anoither Mexico? It's headed that way...i.e., protestors on Wall Street/etc...against capitaslism,(I suppose)....They're, (protestors), are bitch'n at the wrong people....It's our gov't. that creates the environment for wall street as well as the illegals to simply do as they please.

I was talking w/ a contractor yesterday. He was complaining about the Mex's. I said the white guys are screwing it up. He sez, "WHAT? The Mex's are doing them for $190 a sq!"

I said "Is that really any worse than a white guy doing a $350 sq job for $250?"

Immigrants(not just hispanics) make the best pool of workers for construction trades.Many of them are intelligent young strong easy to manage.Being uprooted from their home countries they lack the connections or credentials to do something better so the construction jobs are a good fit for them.Economy needs the immigrants.The military alone takes away 2 milion people from the private sector.Their places need to be filled somehow.

Alba....Unfortunately, you speak the truth....Yes, the roofing, (applies to most any predominant physical labor type construction trades), workforce has been literally destroyed/polished-off over the last three decades....It will take years to bring it back, once we're allowed to...Until then, it's opportunustic illegals and white trash....

twill The crop picking migrants in my day were mostly blacks. " You must have been born before 1861 lol.

Yup once you start a program it is difficult to get away from it. Yup keep the government working. Trade illegals for legal illegals. http://www.politico.com/news/stories/1011/65405.html May be a whole workforce for roofers. Hmmmm B) :) :) B) Deep Down In Florida Where The Sun Shines Near Every Day
