EMPLOYERS THAT HIRE ILLEGAL ALIENS EXPLOIT AMERICA.

THE KUHNS REPORT

LAS VEGAS -  Hello America, and how is the world treating you?

A few days ago ICE raided a large landscape and gardening company in the state of Ohio and arrested  approximately 100 "illegal aliens." Now the employer and other landscape and gardening companies are griping that they won't have workers to do gardening and landscape work. What?

These greedy employers in all likelihood intentionally hire illegal aliens to save a few bucks knowing that they get them cheaper, knowing that the  illegals are presenting false  identification and social security numbers to work and want us to feel sorry for them.

These greedy employers have access to the nationally recognized program E-VERIFY to insure that they do not hire illegal aliens but they refuse to use it. It's only greed people. The employers themselves should be  fined big time for hiring illegal aliens. They should be mandated and ordered to use the E-VERIFY to check each employee before they are hired. They should have no excuse to hire all of these illegal aliens. If they are required to use E-VERIFY  and then still hire illegal aliens and violate the law, the fines should be heavy duty and  they should do jail time. Until these greedy employers actually are penalized and stopped from skirting the laws and continue to hire illegal aliens the large illegal influx of people coming into the country will not decrease. I recall back in the 1950s, 60, and 70's landscape and gardening work and construction work was done  by American citizens. Hell, during those decades kids coming out of high school would  go into the construction and landscaping/gardening business. There were Whites, Blacks, Hispanics and Asians on these work sites all working together. The only difference was they were all American citizens.

Now, in present day, the employers would have everyone believe that the only people in the world that can do landscape/gardening and construction is the illegal Mexicans, and others from South and Central America and Asia. What a joke. The only reason they hire these illegals is  to save a penny. American citizens would do the  construction and landscape jobs just as well, if not better but the employers do not want to pay the going wage.

What these employers are  doing by hiring these illegal aliens is no better that what the employers did in the 1700 and 1800 hundreds by bringing slaves to America to work dirt cheap only to satisfy their own greed and pocketbook. Hiring these illegals is modern day slavery by the  employers.

Truly there is some work that Americans do not want to do . Example is: working in slaughter houses and picking crops in the hot sun and fields across the nation. BUT, we in America had a very well run program that was started about 1942. It was called the "BRACERO PROGRAM." Workers from Mexico were allowed to work specific jobs.

The basics were this: In addition to salary and wages,all expenses were to be covered totally by the employer. Those expenses were transportation of the workers, cost of the worker housing while working here picking the crops, the workers medical, the workers food and miscellaneous expenses that were incurred by the worker.

It should be noted that the BRACERO PROGRAM workers WERE NOT not allowed to bring their families, including their children into the country while they were working the job they were hired to do.

The employers that brought the Bracero's into the United States were responsible for ensuring the workers were returned to Mexico following their 4,5, 6, or 7 months contract that they were hired to complete.

I would suggest that if these greedy employers REALLY need more workers and laborer's to work to pick and harvest seasonal crops and work in the fields and do specific construction , landscape or gardening project then they should initiate a new BRACERO PROGRAM that had worked well for years in the United States,  and the cost is totally absorbed by the employer.

This ridiculous program of the VISA give-a-ways to get workers is clearly not working. Currently the workers brought into America under this program refuse to  return home,  or choose to  evade visa policies an go underground, evade law enforcement, and get lost in the country. The United States has lost control of proper accounting for, and returning the employees brought into the country, to work a specific contract. Result,---- we wind up with millions of illegal aliens within our borders.

I submit, it should  not be difficult for the government to monitor each employers request for  workers. For example, if Business or Corporation X say they want to bring in 50 workers for a specific job for 6 months. That employer is mandated to check each worker in on arrival, their names, identification, etc., assign them to the position, and let them work and complete their contract for the 3,4,5,6,7 months at which time they are accounted for by name, identification, etc., and the employer  immediately returns the worker to their country of origin  until next season or next contract. Thus, the government can verify that Corporation X brought in 50 workers and can see  the paperwork that the same workers are accounted for and returned to their home country.

Folks, only good controls and accountability of the employer and workers will keep American workers protected from mass illegal alien hiring and abuse of the system. Americans can do most of the jobs in the country. I further submit that it is a big myth when you hear these tech, construction, agriculture and labor employers telling you they need these thousands and thousands of workers brought to America to do the jobs. It's a matter of money and greed with them, MONEY and GREED, pure and simple. These employers that scream they need the illegals and VISA holders to work the jobs have the attitude of "hell with America," "I get these workers on the cheap." Personally, I think that attitude is obscene and disgusting but that is how it is people. We need to change their attitude and have them hire American citizens. - And, that my opinion. Make your own decisions, You decide.
