I get flamed for defending immigrants. I agree with what you are saying for the most part but not the last part on the taxes and wages.

Only the illegal or undocumented. Which is what I thought we were talking about. Legal immigration is great. They are documented, legally employed and paying taxes. Ideally when they come here legally we can control the rate of influx that can be sustained by the economy without overburden. Illegals are a detriment to ALL including the legal immigrants.

Companies and business are after only one thing:profit.

What's wrong with that? They need to make a profit to stay in business. BUT, I believe businesses have a responsibility here at home first to keep both businesses and jobs HERE! I'm not talking about communism but there needs to be a concern for the greater good of this country, rather than simply the BOTTOM LINE!!!!!

Why hire someone when you have to pay them the minimum wage with personal rights and benefits when you can hire someone who doesn't speak English and do it for the fraction of the price?

Less than admirable integrity and concern for the greater good of the country!!!! Classic example of why we're circling the bowl. Get ready to take a deep breath and hold your nose.......... As I said before, what makes a great country is the leadership steering it in the right direction. Well, we've been heading in the wrong direction I fear for too long.

"If immigrants were causing so many problems, why don't people just stop buying the products that they are producing or offering? Because people love cheap goods."

SommoneR covered that quite well.
