Didn't Dana just state a few posts ago that it takes forever before they're ALLOWED to seek work?
Dana lives in England. Totally different situation over there.
And you wonder why they take low income jobs at less than minimum wage. It's the only way they can eat, man.
Here's the problem--they don't pay any taxes on that low-income job. So their "take home" pay is comparable to a citizen making higher wages. There are plenty of LEGAL immigrants who pay taxes and work to become US citizens and don't attempt to get free healthcare, foodstamps, and welfare. The ones who are a drain are the ones who willfully avoid detection, can make $8 an hour (the going rate at the day laborer site here in my city)--UNTAXED, which comes out to more like the take-home of a $10/hour job--then take their wife to the hospital to have their baby for free, who then attends public school for free.
