You say in your post:..
"In my opinion , you will find families with four or five children. Because they make minimum wages they sign up for every government entitlement. Food stamps , free medical and dental, housing subsidized by our government and many other things. All Americans are paying taxes for them to have a wonderful life. While other Americans work two or three jobs to make ends meet."...
That is precisely the problem which Feinstien Bill is trying to address. For, while Mega Agribusiness, and the rest of the business community are making billions by paying minimum wage, no overtime, no health care, etc., to "Mesicans", the rest of us pick up the tab for it, and like bilwilkie aptly observes we have our hospitals go bankrupt because medicare payment are being reduced drastically by Federal Government...
The Health care issue is the key one. Surely, you would not advocate that my kids be exposed to Bird-Flue brought to school by a farm waorker child working in the vinyards of my county, because they had no access to some type of health service.

I probably have done more DD on this topic in one of my Writs than you will do in your life span.
Be that as it may, we need an enforceable law which will address these issues effectively. And I believe the Feinstein Bill is the best compromise that has come along since the Bracero program was disbanded...
Have a good day, as you say...
