Kemper now:
I disagree with Nightbreed's statement.  It's black and white.  Not
all wealthy Americans are cruel.  I like to believe that most are not.

Many migrant workers are in America because there are businesses and
households that rather pay lower wages for a service than pay a living
wage to a fellow American.  I don't hear many stories of them
complaining about that their circumstances probably because they are
hard workers willing to endure in order to stay in this beautiful country.

But what I'm hearing you say, though I hope I'm wrong and would love
to be told so, is that it is justified for a business or a household
to treat their migrant workers inhumanely because they are or could be
illegals.
