I ran across an article on the CNN website about immigration which, is a touchy subject in this country right now. I know some people just want to kick all illegals out and I know some people that say give them amnesty. Both are impractical for a multitude of reasons that don't need to be discussed here.
I just wanted to give everyone an idea of one example as to why people who are willing to work for lower wages helps our economy. One person interviewed for the article said he was willing to pick lettuce for $52,000 a year. Granted this is in California but, that is roughly the same amount an average family of 4 makes in the whole U.S. of A.
