1. Farm Work: This is specifically exempted from the Federal Wage & Hour protections.

Remember the contaminated eggs last summer? There have been multiple stories about the abuse of (Mostly ilegal/undocumented) farm labor in the Liberal Press. Even the minimal legal requirements are often not met.

2. All of a sudden I heard a LOT more english when my local Fast Food Franchises started using the eVerify system. It isn't that the illegals using false or stolen Social Security numbers pay more, it's that those taxes are a free lunch for the Social Security Trust Fund, because no benefits willever be claimed based on those contributions.

3. The current unemployment is overwhelmingly among what "management" MBA types have defined as "Low Skilled" workers, those with a high school or less eductation. Who have to directly compete with the illegals for what work there is, over or under the table.
