Surely picking strawberries is not the only work illegals are doing. I would bet my right arm that there is more than one American who worked skilled labor before the invasion who is now either unemployed or underemployed and would be there in a heartbeat to do their jobs.
Why don't we see pictures of Americans lining for the jobs illegals used to have in Arizona for example? Wouldn't that be big news?
In my area, packinghouses and construction is where a lot of illegals work, farmwork is usually done by the farm family and machinary.
I believe that the OP missed a key reason why these jobs are available. Americans would line up for jobs that illegals now have, just not for the pay and lack of benefits that illegals do the work for.
If this country was ever serious about ending the illegal immigration problem and the problem of the American working poor underclass, they need to fine business (from major corportations to that friendly strawberry farmer) to oblivion for hiring illegals. The wages and benefits for these jobs would go up, Americans would be willing to work at these jobs for living wages, and yes, my strawberry would cost more........I would gladly pay it.
Why wait for government? Why not grab a bunch of unemployed Americans "willing to work" and go take out these jobs?
americans don't line up, most employers find them lazy with lots of attitude.
but illegals taking all the scraps, eliminates the options.
there is a sneaking feeling among many that the tank is being drained and that the
fish are getting crowded. i can feel it at the gas pump, lots of tension.

Do Americans even try anymore? Is there any proof Americans will take any of these hard working jobs?
So you still want jobs to be taken by poor people from SOB, you just care about them being here legally? Still have the crime, still have non-english speaking people in your precious grocery stores...you just care if they have proper papers or not?

Have you been to the employment offices lately? Have you inquired with those in these offices about the types of jobs being applied for?
If you have not - your post / position is meaningless IMO
