2. Immigration, including HB1 visa workers, have always, always been used to lower wages.

There is no other reason for bringing in masses of cheap labor. It's all done for the rich capitalist so he can make more money by paying the people who do the work less and less and less.

Yes, I feel sorry for poor people in other countries. But they have absolutely NO Right to come here and work. I don't think we should deport immigrants, nor do I think they should be prosecuted. I just think they should not be allowed to work here and those people who employ them illegally should be fined and imprisoned.

Farm migrant workers should Not be allowed either. If farmers, like me, can't pay a decent salary to their workers then they don't deserve to run a farm. Why should huge farms be allowed to get cheap labor and then compete with people like me who are required to follow the law.
