Florida Rep: Do not deport our work force.

[Delldude]

OMG......our current equivalent of slavery is being eliminated.

 

[initforme]

People are willing to pay much higher prices for american labor.

That why illegals are working on labor intensive jobs?

 

[Lesh]

Retirees can do many jobs along with people on welfare

If thats not enough a carefully managed guest worker program can be implemented

Libs always look for the easiest way out of every situation

Yeah. Nothing like 70 year old farm workers to get the job done huh?

Man, I don't know how old you guys are, but working to the grave is NOT the American dream...

First; I have worked since the age of 12 when I had my first paper route.

I'm 62 now, so that's 50 years...That's crazy to me...

Growing up, in the late 70s all of my friends homes were single earner homes. The dad worked til about 55, and retired, usually with a paid for house, a cabin on a lake, (grew up in Michigan), early enough to enjoy the fruits of his labor. They were able to send their kids to college, because back then college costs about $5,000 for a community college, and $10,000 for a University.

So, you guy's want me to work past 65, you can kiss my ass....I've put in my time. Served my country, in the Army, drove a truck for 32 years so far, and hopefully I'll have enough to make it when I give it up....

It's up to the next generation, and from the looks of them, it doesn't look good.

There are plenty 70-year olds taking orders at macdonalds or standing in the door at walmart

Your sarcasm is uncalled for

I dont know your situation

Just because you prefer not to work a few hours a week as a retiree doesent mean you cant or wont

If it doesent fit you needs then dont do it

How's about 70 year Olds productivity compare to that of a 25 year old of today? They retirees can't compete.

If retirees are forced back to work that's on the nation.

If the job requires more physical effort then pay the younger person more

Is that so difficult to understand?

 

[ColonelAngus]

Catering to their base,

Legit migrants get work visa,

CRIMINAL ALIENS ARE NOT FUCKING MIGRANTS,

You lefty fucks always manipulate language.

Migrants MIGRATE back and forth…seasonal MIGRATION following crop harvest…AND THEY HAVE LEGAL WORK VISAS.

SNEAKING ACROSS THE BORDER FOR FREE SHIT DOES NOT MAKE YOU A MIGRANT,

The argument is why should I have to?

Sorry Mac, that’s just a cop out.

Do want government to wave its magic wand and send the retirees on a cruse to Tahiti?

I don’t know about that…Many in the younger generation want the job, but don’t want to DO the job.

You are the best person to know that

Some people are better at saving for retitement than others
