It is that first generation of immigrants who perform those jobs that native-born Americans are loathe to do because they are hard and often don’t pay well. Immigrants who are legally employed are unlikely to be involved in criminal activity- they are too tired from working to do so. They raise families that realize a good education is necessary to get ahead and provide a better life for their children.
Immigrants are a positive to this country and it is about time we realize that and give them a pathway to legalization.
Immigrants are extremely vulnerable to government bribery – Welfare, food stamps, education, ad infinitum – because they're starting from scratch. If you people agreed to abolish the Welfare State, we wouldn't care as much about this happening. It's still bad for other reasons, but the fact that the government is plundering our money through so-called "taxes" (theft) to pay for these people to sit at home watching TV ticks us all off.
