I wonder how much of our economy is "under the table" -- cash payments
off the books. I know a lot of people who work that way, and they aren't
all illegal aliens, though a couple are. I think it's a hell of a lot of
the economy, and I'm not even counting drug transactions.


in my opinion based solely on years of anecdotal and personal
experience, there is a significant under-the-table economy among



the middle class self-employed work force.



Um, is that yet another PC term for illegal aliens?

Lawdy, lawdy, how come a self-aggrandizing little **** like Cesar Chavez
could not only say "wetback," but use it to refer to illegals and even
have a large group assembled to "Stop the Wetbacks!" way back when and
still get hugged by every silly-assed white hippie-dippie pseudoliberal
around, and if _anyone_ says it now, those same folks have a coronary?

nah...mainly hairdressers, construction contractors, and home-repair
workers... not an illegal alien in the crowd i've had any experience
with. i've no problem with the huge mexican labor force in my
community...though many others do. frankly, all of the mexican laborers
i have met are hard workers and pleasant people. they suffer any
exploitation with gratitude. it's the ukranian and belorussian women
(of the "mail order" vampire bride kind) that cause me to worry about
aliens... well, them and those ever frequent ufo sightings here in the
south...
