Reply to "Interesting discussion on Immigration"

Keep in mind ... the TRADES are seeing a great shortage of manpower. Myself I sit on an apprentice commitee and interview young people who have 2 and 4 year college interviewing to be a Plumber and Pipe fitter. Why .. the money and there is a demand for people.

In the next couple years we are going to have the biggest labor shortage since WW2 ... who is going to fll that gap ?? Immigrants ... who filled it after WW2 ... Immigrants.

Where is the shortage coming from ??? Alaskan Pipe Line is shut down, Vegas building boom, NYC building boom, increase in technology, all creates jobs .. whos going to fill that gap when AMERICANS have 2.1 children per couple ... basically 2.1 replaces the couple so ... Americans basical replace themselves ... but the demand for jobs is increasing... the immigrants are needed but not a a rate of 1 million a year .. control.

My 2 cents.
