Apparently people need to work?

Apparently all those who feel that American's would rather not take on the jobs that all the immigrants take were wrong. At least in Colorado where the line was out the door with applicants to replace all those removed in the raid. Ouch, even one man is a friend of a couple of them who were taken. Some would say, "nice friend" but for myself, I look at it as he must really need a job.

Hmmm, now isn't that something.

Former employees say Swift hired illegal workers to lower wages

"DALLAS — Former employees are suing Swift & Co. for $23 million, alleging the meatpacking company conspired to keep wages down by hiring illegal immigrants."

"The 18 former employees are U.S. citizens and legal residents who worked at a plant in Cactus, north of Amarillo, one of six facilities raided an a multistate federal sweep that led to the arrests of nearly 1,300 employees and temporarily halted Swift's operations."

''These plaintiffs are ... victims in a longstanding scheme by Swift to depress and artificially lower the wages of its workers by knowingly hiring illegal workers,'' said their attorney, Angel Reyes. ''By lessening its labor costs and increasing its profits, Swift has severely damaged the potential earnings and livelihood of these hardworking men and women.''
