Americans complain constantly that Illegals take away all the jobs at cheap wages leaving the rest of us fighting for the few good jobs out there, and struggling to keep a comfortable lifestyle. Many of us are not asking for outrageous wages, we just want enough to keep our families comfortable and be able to afford what we need, such as houses, cars, appliances and the like. Big businesses feel that the Illegals help them make more profit because they do work for low wages. The government in turn, is then dissuaded by the Big businesses to do anything harsh with the Illegals because the Big businesses profits transfer more money to the government pockets.
So, let's take a hypothetical look at how the economy would fare if we went with the way the Average American would like to have it:
If there were no Illegals, or at least only a small margin of what is currently here, Big Businesses would have to hire Americans for most of the jobs. This would mean wages would need to be higher than minimum, and benefits would have to hefty. At first this looks like a big cut to the Big Businesses. BUT, realize that when Americans are being paid a comfortable wage, and don't need to worry so much about the benefits for their families, they are able to afford what they need. That is they can buy a home, a car, appliances, life insurance, car insurance (yes it's mandatory by law in most states, but have you seen the rates?), clothes, etc.
PLUS, they not only can afford what they need, relieving them of this day to day worry, but they can also afford what they don't need. Meaning the economy will be fed millions, no, billions of dollars through entertainment, accessories and extra appliances, extra cars, vacation homes/condos, vacations - including cruises, plane flights, hotels, cars, parks and restaurants. In other words the Americans who are being paid good wages will in turn put that well-earned money back into the American Economy.
That means even though Big Business have to pay out to keep their employees, they will receive larger profits in turn because those same employees will spend that earned money on Big Businesses' products and services.
Doesn't it sound logical? It's something to think about isn't it?
