Re: The Beat Goes on
I live in a place where illegal immigration is rampant. All of the closing of eyes to it in the last many years has resulted in a huge population of illegals. Due to proximity, we interact with this population all the time. If you think the illegal immigrants are picking lettuce and mowing lawns in Los Angeles, think again. That was then and this is now. They are working in construction and all skill levels of factory jobs. Off the top of my head, I can think of two I know well, one is a skilled machinist, the other manages a restaurant. I don't mean he washes dishes. He manages it. College-age children of illegal immigrants, many NOT born here, are not only attending our crowded community colleges, but taking the places of the children of citizens, no questions asked. I think Trump behaves like an idiot, but attention to the problems and policies of illegal immigration is long overdue.
