Kind of makes you think, doesn't it?

So I "discover" this person in my house AFTER she has made all the beds and washed the dishes and swept the floors?

LOL I'll bet THAT happens a lot.

I admit that when a poor person crosses the US border illegally to make a little more money, I do not feel immediately threatened or violated. If that person lives in a trailer with 8 other "violators" while picking lettuce I will therefore buy at a lower price, she somehow doesn't seem to be in my house. Wonder if she is paying taxes too.  If she buys a taco for dinner with her meager wage, is that me being forced to feed her?

Let's alter the analogy a bit. The woman and her husband knock on the door of my house. She offers to clean house for less than I would have offered, and her husband will do my lawn for half what I pay the neighbor boy. And he does it better.  I know they are here illegally, so I say "yes" and as soon as they have finished, I turn them into immigration. No one pickets my house accusing me of selfish bigoted behavior cuz no one knows.

That's what makes me think.
