But the fact remains, an American worker now drawing welfare or unemployment could have every job being done by illegals. Americans absolutely will not do those jobs. Not at any reasonable wage.

Americans won't do those jobs. I agree. But what part of that mindset can be blamed on everyone around our children, from teachers and parents to the President of The United States, telling them that they have to go to college so that they can get a good job as an attorney or in a bank or as a teacher or in some other "professional" profession. There's nothing wrong with picking peaches, or digging ditches, or being a mechanic, or (heaven forbid
) driving a truck. Someone has to do these jobs or our country won't run. Our children are told, though, that these jobs are undesirable and they should go to college so that they don't have to work hard and get their hands dirty.
In the spirit of full disclosure, I are a colledge edjumicated truk drivr.
