Unless you're Blackfoot, Cherokee, of Navajo you have no business talking about immigrants as if they are a bad thing. Yes, oh boy, these peopel are comign to take the country Europeans stole in the first place, oh my. "Hey we stole this fair and square!!!"
Personally I hope they stop coming all together I would LOVE to see some Americans out there in the fields picking lettuce and strawberries for 16 hours, because after about half a day -they'd unionize and a salad would cost you $90 - so good luck with that.

And then we'd need another bail out for that industry since everyone started buying salad from other fresh produce countries. Isn't that great?

I'm glad everyone, other than the OP, thinks Mexicans are the only immigrants crossing over from Mexico.
If you have seen the movie I referenced, you would understand why I selected it.

If they can spare the time to count them coming in you think they would at least try harder to stop them coming in

Actually, farming industries get huge subsidies (bailout) from the government.

+1 on a continual basis too. They get paid huge sums NOT to grow things. They even get paid not to grow things that wouldn't grow on their soil anyway. Farmers in Iowa getting paid not to grow oranges when the Florida crop is huge, I mean c'mon, they can't grow them if they wanted to.
