Do you want a living wage or do you want illegals to work for peanuts?

I found out ours make like $5k a day (our roofers anyway)

Same, but the Mexicans I work with get paid pretty well.

In my country we have a mixture of illegal mexicans and legal mexicans on work visas.
The illegal mexicans usually work for subcontractors that pay them cash every payday and dont make that much.
the legal mexicans make decent wages.

I don't really mind. The mexicans I've worked with were all good people.

Well, a ton of illegals aren't Mexican but that's splitting hairs. What it is, is people coming here illegally and businesses paying them peanuts. Where are they going to go to complain when they're afraid of being deported. They can be great people, but it doesn't change the fact that being here illegally has a slew of negative outcomes.

I keep hearing "oh they do jobs that citizens won't". Yes, the reason for that is no American is going to work for less than minimum wage. Want a living wage, you can't have a group of people that will work illegally for money you wont stand for.
