BTW did you know in some places in california, they've acutally set up designated spots for "day workers" to hang out at? Complete with shady overhang, and a public toilet while they sit there and wait for a job.

I agree, but even if you accept that bogus argument I presented it's BS was my point.
We have those designated areas here as well, it's insane. Everyone knows they are there.
It's hard to hire anyone to do anything here without illegals as part of the work force. I'd submit that it's impossible to hire a roofing firm in ABQ and not have illegals doing the work. MY yard guy, Michael, comes to do some stuff for us every few weeks. Our daughters play together sometimes as well. I keep him doing work I would normally do partially because he refuses to hire illegals. He costs more and I don't really need help aside from hauling, but it's nice to see someone not willing to do that.
