Ed [:)] <br /> <br />I agree and I disagree. [8D] <br /> <br />I very much believe in fair wages. I am not a big fan of the current day Wal-Mart. I also believe our unprotected protected border is a welcome matt for all who want to wipe their feet and walk through the door. About 2 months ago there was an article about the Border Patrol, the Park Rangers, and the crime in the U. S. National Park System. The National Parks, especially the ones in states that border Mexico, have become a haven for illegal immigrants and believe it or not terriorists. The Park Rangers are lightly armed and are few and far between. However, on the other hand, those others folks aren't. So folks from many other countries wipe their feet and walk in. The article stated that the parks used to be a beautiful and SAFE place to vacation. Now they are not. They might still be beautiful but they are not safe. I once saw a "COPS" espisode where the Arizona Highway Patrol pulled over a van with illegals packed in their like sardines. They contacted the Border Patrol to come get 'em. The answer from the Border Patrol was let them go, we don't have a agent that can get them or a place to put them. Sad , but true. <br /> <br />I very much believe in fair play, fair wages, fair this and fair that. Years ago there was a shortage of service workers at places like McDs along the east cost. So to get workers they upped the hourly wages. Then the workers came. When business/industry can't fill the positions open then they will raise the pay. As long as their are people willing to work for low pay ie the illegal immigrants, then wages will stay low. I once had a roommate who worked in poultry processing. Now these jobs are becomming filled more and more by illegal immigrants. <br /> <br />I wouldn't put it past WallyMart to subcontract these people. I wouldn't put it past them to pull dirty tricks in their retail trade. THEY DO. (My opinion based on other articles I have read.) Wal-Mart has greately gone downhill (and many other American places) since Sam died. He was a humble man and fair in his dealings. But as he gave up more and more control of the daily workings of the company it went downhill. <br /> <br />Let's be fair in our employee dealings. Let's hire those who are legal to work and pay them fair. As for the others, send them packing. <br /> <br />It is time to guard the border much better than has been in the past. We must even begin to watch the Canadian border much better. Not because of Canada or Canadians but because of "others" who would use that lightly patroled border to illegally enter this country and do harm here. <br /> <br />
