"not really, most of the jobs they do are stuff nobody else wants to."

Nice cnn talking point. It implies that work is fine for brown neo-slaves, but that americans are above it. The other problem is that citizens would do those jobs if they paid better wages and not slave wages. But the market for unskilled labor is terrible because millions of illegals drive down the cost of that labor. Which is what giant corporations and wider industries that take advantage of that labor want. If you ignore this you are being intellectually dishonest.

Not gonna be watsing what little time i have left on this earth reading the rest of your regurgitated cnn talking points. Take it easy man.

Dont you feel like they are exploited by large corporations as a modern form.of slavery though? They are in positions where they have no recourse should they be abused.

As far as econony, they compete for low skilled jobs with citizens, driving down the value of that labor, while simultaneously cometing for housing, driving up the cost.

If youre talking about pure gdp, i dont care about my 401k or large corpo stock prices. I care more about my fellow citizens who are struggling the most.
