It's about saving money, and exploiting cheap labor, which can only happen because the opportunities and living conditions in Mexico are so substandard that the illegals make a choice to have their
labor exploited here rather than staying in Mexico.
Any questions?

Brian,
The question/statement I was trying to make is why aren't the native people of this country doing these jobs (the terrible, poor-paying ones)? Somehow in this "everybody deserves a higher education" stupid people with no skills became too good to work at crappy jobs.
I'm 21 and have held some real nasty or poor paying jobs, despite being an intelligent person. I guess I am one of the few who realizes that this is part of life, and life isn't fair
