But it works like this: 6.9 million working illegal laborers in America could be replaced by hiring one out of ten of the 69 million workers in America who are simply not in the workforce. What Nation would ignore 69 million people not in the workforce and go and bring people in from another country? That would be like having a lifeboat with that percentage of people on it. and deciding you needed some more people to pull on the oars. and having all of those people up there in steerage riding along. and no. it wouldnt occur to us to go up and say come on down here and grab ahold of that oar. Why dont we pull off on an island and see if we cant recruit some more people. load them in the lifeboat. and maybe 7 out of 12 of them will row. That is what it amounts to.
