what is stopping you or your friends/family from applying for a job to wash dishes or pick vegetables
I'm sure you can find a vacancy for a shitting job washing dishes and getting paid minimum wage
I'm sure you would also have no problem finding a job working 12 hours in a day picking vegetables (assuming you live in an area where those jobs are available
here's a link so you can get started. You want work all day in a field for 12 dollars an hours (or less) right?

their is no requirement to speak Spanish or Chinese to do these jobs.
But it looks like you're again asking "what stops" a person from securing any job already occupied.
specious argument
a filled job is by definition not available
That's the point.
you and every other person in this country can show up and apply for these jobs just like anyone else
And any other person from anywhere on the planet who can make it here. Once again: that's the point.
these shitty jobs are available all over this country
go look for yourself
Made all the more "shitty" due to its wage being hedged against the desperation of an overpopulated world. So unless you have have a sick desire to see shitty jobs becomes even shittier (do you?) then it becomes impossible to follow your reasoning.
Can't you see that?
Doesn't it naturally follow, and does it concern you at all? Because anyone looking to see how a so-called "liberal" train of thought (defined by media rather than reality) is pure self-destruction: there you go.
I guess you're telling me you've applied to be a migrant farm worker, dishwasher, janitor etc.. and have always been shut out by illegal workers
No, but then again I understand everything isn't about me. Maybe that's the difference in our thinking.
I don't know what you mean by safeguards. Define your premise and I'll give you an answer
Again, my premise is very simple to understand
These people do the jobs that you, me and our friends refuse to do
It's been that way for a long time
A safeguard to prevent exactly the problem we're discussing right now: IOW to stop a business from saying, "it's OK to have an illegal worker in this job" while also saying "I don't see why an American isn't doing this job." That's an attempt to secure all things at once, which is nothing short of devious. It's an evil game.
And worse yet, it's done at the expense of those who can least afford to play the game.
The safeguard is to require real documented explanation for any job using a non-American. The revolving cycle is to see that we don't mistake a past snapshot for unchanged reality. It's the only way to be fair to all concerned, in other words.
Again, if you've applied to pick vegetables for a meager wage and have been unable to find work because everyone prefers higher illegal immigrants then maybe you have a point
If a driving force of business is to bank the profit, then it must mean there IS clear incentive to hire an illegal worker. Right?
So. Whose side are you on? One which works toward helping the future of ALL common people in this world within their own countries... or one which lets the money-man play all things at once like a little bitch, while undermining and destroying the value of work.
There's no middle ground to play it safe, my friend. Sorry. This is happening right now and it's an urgent matter. Tick tock, as we say.
