Blaming Mexicans and Central/South Americans for taking some imaginary job

Are you actually debating supply and demand with me? Are you seriously claiming that an increase in supply of labor does not decrease wages?

We've had illegal immigrants for our entire history. Blaming them for economical problems is always the strawman argument. Look at how Asians, Irish, Jewish, Italians, were treated over the years just because they came here to work/live.

Are you really claiming that the Italians and the Irish coming through Ellis Island were somehow illegal?
I am not against immigration period, but the American people should have the right to decide who can live here rather than the free for all we have now.
Interestingly, Harvard did a poll and:

A stunning 35 percent said the level should be fewer than 250,000 a year, while another 19 percent said it should be 250,000 to 500,000. Combined, they make up a majority looking for a cut of at least 50 percent over current annual levels. Another 18 percent said they want to see 500,000 to 1 million. Just 19 percent of respondents said they want an increase over 1 million.

And if we are going to take immigrants, I want people who will be net contributors to society, not future welfare leeches.
