As far as the "difference". I'm saying, again, that there really isn't one.
Immigrants, are immigrants. Just like our forefathers were when they came here and put all the native people in "Reservations".
As for laws, yup, they take oaths to uphold them. Yet, they don't and never have. They will always focus on the ones that help them out politically. Always have, always will

Here is a great article from TIME on why undocumented workers are "Good for Business". In fact, my own State could lose $1billion annually without enough migrant workers.
http://business.time.com/2012/06/14/the-fi...migration-laws/ The source does not matter, you will cry foul.
Look at your reality, Conservatives sources are always evil while yours are always right on the money.I do have a problem with conservatives and their shortfalls why don't you ever think the other side ever has any.
As for this hefty "tax" and that it would cause your state 1 billion . you didn't think that with this Obama tax. oh , i mean Obama care. Didn't your cost go up even though obama said they would go down, did you loose your doctor or are you one of the lucky ones that didn't, even though Obama said no one would loose their doctor and had to admit he was wrong ( if he could be wrong about such a small detail , What about the big ones ?). According to the CBO it costs 950 billion dollars annually and supposedly saved 140 billion bringing the grand total 800 billion yearly , divided by fifty states equals 1.6 billion Obamacare is costing your state (every year). Now the CBO ,by law , has to use the figures given it by the administration, Thats right they were forced to use data for obama care given by Obama (nothing could go wrong there). How long have you been interested in politics , Long enough to know that the us government ALWAYS EXTREMELY underestimates costs , and is inefficient in everything it does. So if obamatax ain't hurting your state (in this great roaring economy ) The 1 billion in reference to farming won't, and you need a much stronger argument.
Minimum wage increases will hurt much more. We can't use resources any more , cause it is a he said she said argument, but , we can use common sense . On the surface raising it sounds loving and empathetic. In realty the Free market works to fast for the government to act.
Lets say you raise fast food workers from 8 an hour to eleven ,
what will the trained employee say who makes eleven. You can not deny he will require the same wage increase to fourteen . Now the shift manager at fourteen says you need to pay me more than the guy at the register, so now he gets 17 an hour. Now the assistant manger who make 17 needs to go to 20, and the manager who gets 20 now wants 23 an hour( If you don't see this coming you are fooling yourself), within a company with five employees, that companies payroll just increased 30,00 a year and ask anyone who owns a small business with employees ( not the same as hiring sub contract work )you will easily add at least half of what your company payroll is to Taxes, fees and such. Do you really think a business can take a 45,00 hit. NO. They will have to raise their price. The girl working at the mall in the clothing store, she needs her raise or she is going to work fast food - so up goes clorthing to cover all the raises , The construction worker ( of which my business is). I have guys showing up wanting 10 an hour . fresh out of high school , that don't now how to read a tape measure, and now they will want 13 an hour to start because it is harder work .
Please tell me you are smart enough to see this cause and effect of this .
This is why we have this debate every couple of years . The minimum wage increases , the free market compensates to fast for the government to handle, so everybody cries for minimum wage to increase.
Search its history yourself .The only thing it ever hurts are the poor and elderly( the exact ones the government says it is trying to help), because now , those one a fixed income have less buying power, their dollar buys less. The poor will benefit for a while , untill prices rise and then we will be back in this boat.
To be honest , This will happen , just watch its cause and effect
On of the truest statements I have ever heard " Within the free market their are winners and loser but when the government tries to decide who wins and loses , we all lose ". Only time will tell .Please learn from it.
