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?

There are lots of things our grandpas could say in polite
company which would be totally unacceptable today. And I
don't think there's a damn thing wrong with that.

Um, grandpas? If Chavez were alive, he'd be about 70 or so, and we're
not talking about 1920, we're talking about 1970-something...hell, I
figured a late-middle-aged righter-of-wrongs like you would have been
right there with the little turd, using a pitching wedge on anyone who
tried to take away your "Stop the Wets!" sign...

LOL !! Yeah, I thought Chavez was a great American and the
United Farm Workers a righteous organization.

Why are you so rabid about using ugly language ? Are you
afraid you won't be able to express yourself if offensive
words are removed from your vocabulary ? Don't worry, I'm
sure a clever fellow like you can figure out how to be
plenty offensive even with a few of your choicest epithets
relegated to the trash bin.

So, it is the term "ILLEGAL ALIEN" that is bothering you??

Calling an Illegal Alien an "Undocumented Worker" is like calling a
Crack Dealer an "Unlicensed Pharmacist"

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...

See what happens when you deal with them like adult human beings, Jeff?
