The Solution To the Job Crisis
The Solution to the Jobs Crisis?
By Elton Camp
In this write, words I don’t intend to mince
Of illegal immigration I’m making no defense
Nor any illegal aliens am I attempting to shame
If my family was in poverty, I might do the same
There is one main point that I want here to note
If the government should seize aliens by the throat
And throw them over the border and admit no more
Would there be plenty of employment as before?
Most of them have some low-paying, menial task
How many legals would, for those jobs then ask?
Are you or I those type jobs really going to take
To do picking, digging, cleaning or using a rake?
Some will say, “Why, yes, I’d be willing to do so.”
To that response, I have very serious doubts though
If a shortage of such workers never had there been,
There was no reason for illegal immigration to begin
