Calif is so screwed up, and Texas is not far behind.

Let's just annex Mexico. I think they should be prosecuted for workers comp fraud because they are here illegally. Also, these employers should be locked up under the jail for employing them.

This is a good development actually. WC is paid for by the employer. If these employers are hiring cheap labor to avoid paying higher wages and taxes and benefits, then I hope injured illegals sue them in large numbers and make themselves too risky and expensive for employers.

Good point, excuse my gut reaction.

You can be sure that as we speak, Irv & Sol from the law firms of Loophole, Shyster & Swindle and Dewy, Cheetum & Howe are rubbing their greedy claws at the thought of all the shekels heading their way, representing the downtrodden aliens.

[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]I dunno but it sure looks to me like a greedy company intent on betraying the nation for profit has had the tables turned, and is now bent over the bed, taking it hard up the poop-chute.

Just breaks my heart, too! [I]Ha [B]HA!![/B][/I] :thumbsup:[/SIZE][/FONT]

Another point is that employers like illegals because they don't have to keep up safe working enviornments. A good example of this is the meat packing industry, whose safety standards have gone down with the increased hiring of illegals.

I expect many of these illegals will be so greedy that they will injure themselves deliberately to collect benefits and the ambulance chasers will have a new source of income.

Even so, it still won't add up to prosperity for the nation below. Some Mexican's wife that he sent the money home to will just run off with a sancho because her husband now only has four fingers. They have been cursed to the utmost generation for their keeping of idols, and it ain't gonna end soon. Viva Mexico!!
