So that's why private industry can do jobs more cheaply than the government can. [/snark]

What makes the aliens illegal?

The aliens were arrested after they were determined to be illegally residing and working in the United States. Those arrested are citizens of Mexico, El Salvador and Guatemala.

Thank you. Although you are three and a half years late with your congratulations, thank you very much.

As far as what makes them illegal, having come here without the proper documentation. Private industry seems to love illegal immigrants because they don't hold out for very high wages. Particularly for jobs like painting.

They also don't ask for things like unemployment insurance, disability, workman's comp, or social security benefits. That's helps the bottom line a lot.

The government still uses illegal labor, but it just covers up the savings by buying $400 toilet seats. After all, what's a government project without insane amounts of waste and graft?

He's been a Mod pretty damn long, just not as active as some of the others, so you may not have seen him Modding much.

"Fuck you."

Yes. Guess what those quotes were from.

And if you watched the opening of MiB, you'd know the picture I was painting.
