Its a sign of the times things get tight and the money stops flowing as easy and not only our southern friends but Canadains are fleeing home as well....

If you came here to find a better life for your family and its not here of course your going to move on

and to make a bad joke the rats are always the ones to flee first

If illegals are going home that oughta be an indicator of how bad it really is...

Maybe now Americans are doing the jobs that they formerly didn't want to do and were done by Mexicans - economic hardship is a great humbler for anyone.

So over the next few years I guess we'll have to get used to seeing chambermaids making beds in Jimmy Choos or doormen with MBA's, eh?

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.

A lot of employers don't want to hire Americans. In many sectors the illegals work harder and produce more per dollar paid.
