Correction Please
Mr. Bush has a little non sequitur in his mantra, “lllegals do jobs Americans won’t take.” I would rewrite this to “Illegals accept wages Americans won’t take.”
That Yale economics class must not have been very well-attended.
Look at meat packing plants. You will see native US citizens working alongside illegals and legal immigrants in this industry, for very small wages. This is probably right along the cost/benefit frontier, beyond which the legals drop out of the labor market.
