Question is will the next administration ( whom ever it is ) do anything to remedy these enormous problems. Will they even care ?

I gotta tell you, having lived in South Carolina for 2 years. Living on a tourist paradise. A place where the wealthy live in gated communities called Plantations, and the black American Citizens are mostly very poor, and out of work or struggle to survive. It was an eye opener to say the least.

You cannot imagine how many restaurants and hotels are on that island, and how many jobs are taken by illegals. Its a Service Industry economy.

I worked with a black woman that did the cleaning at Havertys and she had held a decent paying job, with great bennies, in one of the hotels on the island until the wages got so bad she had to find a job closer to home. Havertys was 42 miles from the town where she and her family lived.
(Bumper to bumper traffic coming and going for her) I hate to think what her fuel prices are now.

Remembered when I posted about the "don't go to work protest day" ? I told you guys the traffic was nothing that day. They have as many or more illegals then DC.

We have American citizens that have to rely on food stamps and any help they can get. These are working poor that cannot survive on the wages they get.
Its not about Illegals doing the jobs that Americans wont do ( maybe the farm labor, but I am not so sure about that either) Its about a living wage....

See another thing that NO ONE MENTIONS IS THIS. Illegals can do very well on those low wages because they live multiple families to a household .

I know because I was very well acquainted with an Illegal from Venezuela that had been here less than 3 years and had $ 17,000.00 in her BOA savings account. Had bought her mother a home in Venezuela and was helping her brother with his car repair business in Venezuela........There were 12 adults and I don't know how many children in their 3 bedroom apt, and used the Islands free medical clinic for their various ills.

VIM Clinic - Hilton Head Island, South Carolina

I noticed this on their website :

Now every person who lives or works on Hilton Head Island has easy access to health care. And the best part is that it was accomplished using an untapped resource, the retired medical professional.

............... you had to qualify by income for everyone in the household.

So you tell me if this clinic wasn't being exploited


So I guess if we lower our standards and quit being so spoiled we too could PROSPEROUS IN AMERICA.

Wasn't that something Dodge tried at one time - the limit on the number of families per household? Seemed to me at the time that it was pointed toward those workers who drove new cars/trucks, but lived in abject poverty? I don't know how that turned out, but to do that realistically, one would have to have the support of all the landlords in the area. It's a health hazard all by itself! In our office, we "live" together 9 hours a day, 5 days a week and keep passing the same germs around. We're still sick from the bug that went around before Thanksgiving! It's no wonder they're a drag on our free medical community.
