Then, I'd go with team A - they're cheaper and the worker documentation is the owner's problem, not mine.

Actually, that guarantees that pretty much everyone would pick team A (whether or not they admit it in this thread). If you opted not to conduct business with everyone who has employed illegals, you'd probably have to stop driving and eating, among other things.

Team Fucking A! $20k cheaper and I like Speakeasy's plan!

To me, it really doesn’t matter who owns the business. If they’re employing illegal scumbag aliens, then hiring them encourages them to continue to hire illegal scumbag aliens.

Anyone voting for Team A is a bad American…

*sails into the sparsely responded to poll*

aye.

>.>

*looks both ways*

<.<

ahoy!

i asked this question to folks o'er the last week or so, to try'n get a feel fer what the waters be like out thar. i asked a few 'o me clients this question too...folks who have fearsome earin' power. i always asked folks privately, so thar would be no posturin'...everyone but one said, rather sheepishly, that they'd hire "Team A".

this, more'n any other reason, be why hard line solutions to immigration reform will be impossible;

1. they shall sail to our ports because many americans prefer to hire them.

2. many americans prefer to hire them because they'd rather have money in thar pockets and spread the social costs 'o these undocumented worked amongst the broad swath 'o taxpayin' americans.

and thats that.

ps - one other reason be possible, i 'spose. in all me hypotheticals, i used irish and englishmen as me illegal immigrants. thar be a chance that folks are more sympathetic to this kinda undocumented worker as opposed to other nationalities.

Maybe we are just not hate-filled nutcases and do not really give a rat's ass who does a job as long as it is done right.

You mean like the team of Hispanics that did the roof on my neighbor's house after Katrina? The next heavy rainfall, he was mopping buckets of water from the floor and the dining room table because he wasn't home when the rain started. Oh, and the contractor that hired the Hispanics? Nowhere to be found.

I'm going to go with stupid. Not as an insult, but in the literal sense of the word. You know the facts, yet you choose to ignore them in favor of your prejudices.

Knute - You live in a state which is rapidly being sucked dry by illegals taking advantage of your social services. Your state is losing over a million taxpayers per year. Yet, you somehow think anyone who opposes illegal immigration is a hate-filled nutcase?

My friend - there is a point at which having an open mind is dangerous. When it is TOO open, things tend to leak out...

Of course, my comment made more sense. Hiring illegals is not just illegal, it's immoral...

*hesitates...*

hail mrs. M!

i read many, many 'o yer posts 'fore i first began writin' on this wonderous forum. i respect and understand yer spirited defense 'o americans servin' in the military.

so...i says this with no intent to cause ill will, because ye been one 'o the mighty veterans 'o this place, but i think ye have some kinda hot button thing with hispanics. aye. specifically, hispanics.

me poll had nothin' to do with hispanics, the only undocumented workers i mentioned in me hypothetical were white, western europeans. irish and english they be.

*looks at mrs. M and blinks*

aye?

They could be green for all I care...

*agrees with the bellicose Steve*

aye matey, i can recall ye statin' as much in other related posts.

though, sadly, this poll be lightly voted on by the folks on our mighty forum, wouldn't ye agree that the problem isn't undocumented workers stealing american jobs, but rather the many americans preferring to give them work?

aye?
