Its about time they address this issue. So many immigration busts in the news now.
If they cannot find legal employees, legislation will be created to fix the situation.
What happened to the program they were talking about like three years ago getting legal immigrants to sign up and come here to work those jobs? They can fix it.
Here in the deep south, the minimum wage goes by the Federal (because Louisiana doesn't do much on their own), and its $6.55.
There are sooooo many people down here working at that rate! The local grocery store here has employees that you would think are chained and whipped they way they act, absolutely miserable. But they work for minumum wage, and are too lazy to do anything else.
at $6.55 an hour, x 40 hours, you have $262.00 a week, BEFORE taxes.
Jobs paying $600 a week would be filled like crazy down here. I doubt the local trash men even make that much in South Louisiana.
