Thats not a bad idea! The tourist destinations, such as Cancun, will face economic stimulus! There's plenty of ranches they can buy from the locals too, and maybe land values will go up.
Ill be looking for a 5 bdr 5 bath and build a working art studio outside of San Miguel in 5 years. My friends will get their own rooms and stay as long as they like if not permanently. Gonna make it happen!
My Mexican parents would make me work in the fields as a child, picking onions, asparagus, cucumbers, apples, strawberries, and the worst one as a child was Jalapeños. Talk about burning your eyes! That taught me three important life lessons. The value of a dollar, humility and most importantly how to work my ass off. Now I live debt free and have more in the bank than ever before, I just bought my mom a Mercedes for Christmas. I thank God for all He’s given me.
Mike Jones I have to completely agree with you there, kids get everything handed to them and told they’re special. My parents never told me I was special lol.
But when American citizens who work in fast food/DisneyLand/other want the minimum wage to change. Those same "immigrants are stealing our jobs" people are unsympathetic to the American worker. I remember they said things like "if you want better pay then you should work somewhere else"
I had a Mexican show up at my door asking if he could mow my lawn. He did not have a mower and so I let him use mine. He was wearing dress shoes so I gave him an old pair of my work boots and some gloves. He now has a landscape company. I gave him a trailer and introduced him to some of my neighbors so he could get some business. Very thankful, very hard working. He had just arrived two days before from Mexico when I met him.
Even though I speak very little Spanish, I will always hire them. As a whole, the best people I have ever worked with. Very hard working and dedicated to their families back home. I love the Mexican people. When I hear Americans disparage them, I always ask "when's the last time you saw a homeless Mexican?"
Omar, you prove the point of why unchecked immigration is bad. You have no background in history, you don't share american values or culture and to top it all off you are clearly racist. Go back to where you came from and learn to write in a manner that is not painful to read. You idiots may like working for $3 hr, but this is the newest form of global industrialized corporate slavery meant to enslave a lower class of citizens for profit and power. This intellectual conversation is so over your head you need a telescope to see it.
Mane365 Mrtnz You might celebrate American holidays but not all of these do. They wave the Mexican flag and never bother to learn English. And YES they do get sent back. 2wks later they are back to work. Usually under a different name then the time b4. So sick of them. My cousin worked in a Greenhouse with hundreds of illegal immigrants. They bragged about how quickly they can be back on the job after being deported. Talked about how they change their names every so often to stay ahead of the law. Dirt bag lying scum. If they don't want to be American then go back to your own country and change it. Stop trying to change mine.
I guess if you want sub par quality workmanship, go on ahead and hire them. There's illegals in the factory I work at that after 15 years still haven't figured out the simplest tasks.
I’m Cuban 🇨🇺 but I admire Mexican people a lot they are the most humble and strong workers I ever meet in USA 🇺🇸 they teach me a lessons to work for my family when I came here
If a man who goes through hell to cross a border with 120° temperatures, no water, no food, and walk miles and miles, does not speak English or have any experience doing any work in the United States is taking your jobs? That’s just sad. Not that they’re taking your jobs but that they’re better at it. Love all people🇺🇸🇺🇸🇲🇽🇲🇽
Ayy It’sJoaquin heres the thing though America became what it is because people had the backbone to stand up for what they wanted to see changed and it happened. MLK Rosa Parks Abraham Lincoln and many more leaders. The issue is if Mexico is that bad people need to stand up and demand change you see protests everywhere in the USA make them happen in Mexico to get the gov’t to do something about it. The issue seems to be Hispanics in Mexico will not stand up for what they want to see changed and just try to run away from it if Americans did that that wanted change legal slavery without pay may still be a thing and many other things that were bad before. Stand up and fight for your homeland just like Americans did and still do to this day. Plus they under pay these people cause they know they can get away with it. So honestly you are defending the rich who hoard all their money and under pay most of their workers.
The fact that you even just said what you said shows that you have no idea what it's like out there. They're not taking our jobs just because they walked a thousand miles to do it they're taking our jobs because the work for practically next to nothing like $4 an hour when legal minimum wage is 725. The reason they're stealing all our jobs is not because we don't want him it's because we can't get them because they work for so cheap that they won't give the job to a white man anymore. They only give it to the ones that work for $4 illegally, which puts a complete Monopoly on the f****** industry of carpentry or any other construction aspect known to man and then nobody else but illegal immigrants can get in on the industry anymore because they don't work for $4 a f****** hour like goddamn dirt balls
rokkero564 alrght men thank you for your kind words and you are right. Without us mexicans your economy in this country will collapse and every white person will starve to death. Without us there will be no housing food stores etc... Because the trump adminstration might deport all of us. Then I promise by the 1st or second day the USA will collapse and it will not be good.
who are you a refugee, illegal what to support this shit. What is it about illegal you asses don't understand. It's just not the work, it's the draw of free medical for you and out of my pocket I fucking don't want to pay for you! There's a lot of people that would love to sit on this side of the border and pick em off as they cross.
Yeah, I've watched and read about it. It's cheaper for them to purchase full sugar cola than water. Coca Cola company effed em hard. There is an episode on it on Patriot Act show.
Mexicans are the best labourers I know. I worked in a Salmon facility in AK for 4 seasons. My regular shift was 16hrs daily. As a supervisor, I needed people for an additional shift. It would be the Mexicans volunteering for the extra 4hrs for clean up, making it a total of 20hrs for them, 7 days a week for 3 months. They never complained of fatigue and still found it possible to laugh and be in high spirits. My girlfriend now is a Mexican:)
That's because they don't try very hard, they constantly cut corners so the job is much easier for them....I grew up in the southwest my whole life and this is just a known fact....anyone who does half assed work can work twice as long.
What’s terrible about this whole situation is that Mexico is so rich with natural resources and manpower. Mexicans work hard and understand family values. Yet, the country’s full potentials have been brutally suppressed by a tiny minority of rich and ultra corrupted ruling class in Mexico City. They have deliberately kept their own people poor and oppressed, in order to maintain control. The US or El Norte is used as a safety valve to keep those at the bottom rung of society from revolting, like they did in the 19th century. Moreover, by encouraging the disenfranchised people to go north, work hard and send money back home to their families, the ruling class can avoid the responsibility of providing an economic well-being and a safety net for their poorest citizens. If the US succeeds in closing its southern border, perhaps that will be a blessing in disguise for Mexico; because the poor and disenfranchised will have to face their oppressors and demand changes. Mexico has the potential to be a powerful nation if the people decide to drain the swarm of Mexico City and make it a better place. Mexican brothers, why sneak across the border to someone else’s country and forgo your human dignity to get taken advantage of by cheap Gringos, all the while despised by them, just so you can prop up a system that is keeping you down? You, the children of great men, such as Pancho Villa, should make Mexico great again by demanding for changes. Mexico has all the great potential to be an equal to the US, only if you clean house of the leeches and start again. I’m sorry that I cannot write this in Spanish so more of you can see my pleads to you to take actions for the future of your children.
HUY PHAM you are right man, maybe that would be a great situattion for my people to take back the power of our nation (btw im mexican), half of my family lives in LA, all of them are citizens and is really sad to read the hate comments to my fellow people in your country but trust me almost any american person that talk shit things about my country and the people that live here, they dont know what it is living at a day, with a corrupt goverment that takes everything what you own by elevated taxes and of course the violent cartels that destroy our security, you dont know me and i dont know you but as a mexican that had been in your country for visit plenty times, let tell you that you live in dreamland and all what we want is have the same or maybe some of the opportunities that your country offer, but i will still be here in my homeland doing my part for build a better place a better country by the right way for nobody of my brothers and sisters got the necesity to go to a foreign country where always sees us as a invaders as a murderers, as a criminals, we are humans beens as you, we born, we eat, we suffer and we die, but after all im glad that are american people lime you that thinks different and had a open point of view, thanks
/////////////////// I bet you would never accept any of the works Latin American immigrants take, they aren't stealing any jobs, they're taking the ones lazy Americans don't want
I’m not even religious but... god bless these people... the dedication and hard work is very inspiring. We all just want to live life and be happy.. illegal or not, these are our world’s citizens. Be respectful.
Tim Anderson Blame the U.S. government for not taking care of the veterans. Why are they homeless? Can it be because some are drug addicts? Some are mentally unstable? The government should be taking care of them. Why go off on this lady? Illegals and veterans are two different stories, you angry douchebag!
Tim Anderson and the stupid ones here are the veterans for not going to search for a job, they end up in the streets because they are lazy, the one who looks for a job will find it the one who just sits there waiting will never find shit.
I am a proud American! Raised in Atlanta, Ga. My parents are from a proud southern heritage as well. They farmed hogs in Cumming, Ga. My entire life has been lived in the Southeastern United States. And here's what I will say...After 45 years on this planet, I've learned to ALWAYS see a man (or woman) for the merits they bring to the table. Some of the hardest working people I have ever met in my life were Mexicans. Some of the kindest people I have ever met in my life were African American. White, Black, Brown or Yellow, we all have the potential to be great HUMAN BEINGS! One of my best friends as a child was from Durango, Mexico. As a result, I was exposed to his culture over the years. I learned to appreciate our differences and understand our similarities. We all need to get past societal misconceptions and understand that we are stuck on this 3rd rock from the sun together! I have great respect for all of my fellow citizens of the world! But it is incumbent upon us ALL to carry the load. Don't ever feel entitled because of your heritage! You are owed NOTHING due to your race, sex, religious orientation, etc. The merit of a man (or woman) is in his/her ability to rise to the occasion and put forth the effort to become a successful individual for the benefit of all mankind. God bless us all.
Jack, all that you said are true. I for one is a Filipino who migrated in the USA 54 years ago. Regardless of the color of someone’s skin does not make any difference. My being a naturalized citizen is a blessing though I look how much people sacrifice to come here. I pray for those that try so hard to be one.
American????? ,Or U.S. citizen???? Mexicans and there reservation brothers and sisters, are the real, and only Americans!!!! The rest are immigrants, U.S. citizens!!!! There's 27 continent american countries, the united states is just one of them!!! White people come from Europe!!, Blacks from Africa, Asians from Asia,etc,etc,etc We all need to study geography, U.S. history, history of thee Americas, and study your own Roots!!!, And watch what happens!!!!👍👍👍👍😲😲😲. 🇨🇦🇺🇸🇲🇽 North america complete!!!! Love to all!!!
Inmigrates from Europe woun't start working low pay Jobs in farms or constructions or 🤔 cleaning toilets😒😒😒 just because color right??? and lenguage ??? so they are easy commoflage with White high rakings positions. And they arent called alliens or immimigrates 🤔 .... strage.... racism at all leves
Yup so lucky we feel a need to have a border wall un like with canada ... the MEXICAN government should be ashamed that thousand of thier citizens flee government corruption organized crime and lack of opportunities........
My Mexican parents made me work when I was in 6th grade I’m currently in 9th grade still working with them during thanksgiving break, Christmas break, Easter, and summer so my siblings can be able to buy the shoes and clothes they want. It’s not the best for me cause my back always hurts but it’s worth it because I get to put food on the table for people. My parents always tell me once I go to college and I need money for books I can work in the fields so I can pay for them I’m thankful they told me that because if I’m not accepted in any jobs at least I know I can work in the fields. This Christmas is the first time my parents get presents from me and my siblings we all saved money so my mom can get a new tv and my dad can get a new car (my sisters boyfriend is gonna help fill out the papers for the car)
My Father always told me to "work hard like a Mexican" and through my life I always have. I live in Texas and we have a lot of these guys who come up for the summer to do landscaping. They are hard working and do a hell of a better job than a lot of "American" workers. I moved for a short time to a northern state where the majority of the landscaping people were white guys and they would often be sitting , texting on their phone, sitting under a tree "resting" I would hire a Mexican for hard labor before I ever hired a 20 year old white boy with no work ethic.
and that's what's wrong with this country,you would rather undercut an American so you can pay a foreigner less money so you can pocket that money that rightfully belongs to him.thats sad.
And here I am, in my air conditioned car and house, while looking outside and seeing how hard these people work out in the summer heat. And we know how hot summers can get, especially in CA and other States. YET, THESE GUYS PULL THROUGH AND WORK THEIR BUTTS OFF TO LIVE AND PROVIDE THEIR FAMILIES. Thanks to them.
I am American and i want to say MEXICAN WORKERS ARE AMAZING we got our brand new construction home built in 2 months! It was 1,400 sq ft let me say they worked Sunday through sunday 8 am to 8 pm Nd they did such a a great job I am sooo happy we have hard workers like them ... 3 years living in my home and everything is working perfectly fine
25 years ago, I worked for a landscaper in Ohio, on the outskirts of the suburbs. He owned several acres of property; where he had a storage facility and two greenhouses. He grew his own plants for his landscaping business. He had 15-20 employees all year round to tend the greenhouses and do the planting. On the other side of his property, he owned 4 houses; 3 of them he rented out, while the fourth one was much smaller and in very poor condition. He legally hired 3 Mexicans through some program in 1999 and 2000; and puts them up in that run-down house, which I thought was strange. Their names were Palo, Cristobal (Cris), and Taos. They worked from March until September, Monday-Saturday, 8am-8pm; and were the hardest working guys! I, along with my two close friends, Elias and Jamaal, became fast friends with these guys. Elias spoke fluent Spanish and Jamaal had a van and would drive these guys to wherever they needed to go to. I used to bring in muffins and granola bars every morning for breakfast for the six of us. During lunch break, the other employees noticed that Palo, Cris, and Taos weren't eating much. So, aside from me bringing in breakfast, the other employees were giving them extra food to eat. It was bizarre. They worked the first season and came back in 2000; stayed in the same house. In mid-April, Elias gets a different job, but continues to secretly help out Palo, Cris, and Taos; and that's when we find out about all of the unethical crap our boss was doing to them. Elias learns that those guys were paid a lot less than the American employees--which didn't surprise me. They were also paying rent and utilities. After speaking with the other home renters, Elias discovers that they were paying only $600/month in rent, while the Mexican guys were paying a whopping $1000/month for that crappy run-down house! And because the house was a fixer-upper, the utility bills were extremely high! And the boss refused to fix the house up! With everything they had to pay, they were lucky to send home $10 a week to their families; which explains why they had very little food to eat. We were sickened by all of this! One Saturday night, a few days before they had to pay the rent and utilities, Palo, Cris, and Taos had had enough. They gathered up all of the money they earned and left quietly back to Mexico! They didn't give the boss notice, because they knew he would take all of their money. And they waited until Saturday night because they were afraid that the boss would have them stopped before getting on the plane from Texas to Mexico! Now, because they didn't work on Sundays, the boss had no idea they were gone. When Monday rolled around, they were already in Mexico and the boss was pissed! He also figured out that Elias was helping them, but couldn't do anything because he was no longer employed with the company! Needless to say, the boss never hired another Mexican after that. Last I heard, he no longer has his landscaping business! Elias still keeps in touch with Palo. He's doing well and has a construction job in Mexico, making enough money to support his family.
Let me tell you something, from a black woman: I love Mexicanos !!!!! You work hard, family orientated, great food, great music, very sweet people that like to have fun and the women and men are very lovely !!
Jupiter Stars, Great attitude. However, that is also racist. You cannot group people by religion, sex, sexual orientation, race, color, etc. People differ. I, for the millionth time, am not against illegals as a race, color or whatever. I say "I" because I cannot speak for others. The issue is illegal immigration. It, literally, is bad for the economy. If people didn't have a choice to hire cheaper labor, potential pay would be up. Welfare, for reasons unknown to me, pays more than working two jobs for some people. That needs to change. For balance to occur, we need factual data to determine cost of living against potential pay. You know, economics. This is not a heartwarming tale, this is law and structure. I am not for turning people away. Capitalism relies on growth in number and expansion. We need immigration. Just, the legal kind.
I have great respect for the Mexican people who leave thier homes to try and find work and a better way of life for your families...may you all be blessed
a research Journalist realized that many of the people doing the hiring do not hire American citizens with similar or better qualification especially in the state of California.
Every time I see people like this , they remind me my “Dad” ;( I’m 17 years old and my dad got to USA in 2004 since heused to live in Mexico. With us I was so young to remember how was my dad looked like .years later my dad wanted me to come with him in 2011 so I did moves in USA 🇺🇸 and met my dad . But the sad thing was is that I left my mom and brothers to Mexico . My dad was like my mom to me he used to cook for him since I was 10 yrs old and we are in 2018 almost to 2019 & my dad is going back to. Mexico 😫😢😭😭😭 so I’m staying here I’m 17 I’m really sad 😢 I didn’t want him to go back to MX but he have to since my mom and sisters needs him ,, 😭😭😭 everything will be different without my dad 😭😭😭 I’m really crying he was a really hard work man love you dad ❤️
Before I was done with high school I went straight to work at this cable factory in my hometown where almost every person didn’t know a drop of English and were here hanging on to their green cards. Working alongside Mexicans helped me realize what it means to be frugal and humble for everything you get in life. Unfortunately, no matter how hard they work or how long they stay with the factory, the stubborn managers will avoid any opportunities for giving raises or paid breaks. I’m saving for college currently and I want to be someone who stands up for all Visa holders rights here in the US. It is very hard to move forward when the systems above limit so many innocent people. :(
I'm Mexican and im 14 and I work with my dad in construction idc if its illegal for me to work at that age I like to work i work from 6am-10pm in the sun all day long.
I bought my first car by going to work in Arizona with my father, we worked 6 months construction 10 hour 6 days, they paid me 1,500 bucks and I managed to buy a car in Mexico and save some for school.
These are humble hard working people. I remember when these values were instilled in American workers. These days, most people don't want to be dirtied for any amount of income. They don't want to work hard. There is a clear sense of entitlement among our young people. And some deserve those types of jobs, such as those who have labored hard to educate themselves. But more often than not, there are people who don't have an education, don't have training, they possess no skills, yet they feel they deserve a high paying, low labor job.
Rumpled Trumpskin sadly true, younger and younger generations are given electronics, social media, videogames, instead of a hard working attitude and discipline. Lend them a shovel or pick up some trash, nooooo that would be "child abuse"
you're full of it. You are eating up the narrative that the slave masters use to drive down the price of labor. Whether its immigrants from the big city or other countries; native folks like me (and i am a minority) are being displaced by people who employers know they can replace permanent jobs with temporary jobs and temporary people. Its to impart instability and ensure slave labor. Don't tell me I don't want landscaping or fruit picking jobs; its all I've done all my life; and I grew up on a farm and have no problem doing hard or dirty jobs. Stop listening to lies. There are lots of people like me struggling because you eat this garbage up.
Rumpled Trumpskin umm it was never really applied because immgrants build these Country before America was born. Those values should have being passed on by our immgrants forefathers. Along the way we lost. America is an immigrant Country that was build and run by immigrants. Now immigrants are the ones keeping this Country aflow while dumbass rich people are brraking it.
A white working man here too..I have my own cleaning business..I work alone..I do not have any workers..I have been undercut by the Mexicans that will work for nothing..I do not blame them..I blame the American companies that hire the illegal ones..I fully support the legal workers..You will not find a harder worker than a Mexican..the absolute most humble people I have EVER seen to be honest .. I think most business owners know that they really do get a great worker when they hire a Mexican..
this is actually what really motivates a man in general, the fact that he got his family relying on him which basically gives him a sense of ‘guardian-ship’. they would be heartbroken if they knew that their wife and children go to sleep with an empty stomach.
I would love nothing more than to sponsor a Mexican. I'm 57 years old and a HVAC technician. And I'm struggling to physically do my job. If I had a Mexican apprentice my life would be so much easier and I would get so much more work done. I might even be able to work for another 10 years. At this rate I'm almost cooked.
I married into a Mexican family. They are the hardest workers I have ever met. Vacation is not part of their vocabulary. They are also very kind and helpful people, even more than my family. They have become family.
Americans wondering how we Mexicans endure at work, while doing it fast and good let me tell you how: First off, in Mexico we work at least 48 hours a week for about $1,500 pesos (~$90 USD). Usually the working conditions are rough; bad to no equipment, barely any rest times, working under the sun... And when we go to the US is basically the same thing but way easier and way higher payments, and to us 48 hours is not even "overtime". I think that maybe you Americans are so used to having it easy that don't realize the huge advantage you got just for being born in the US. I am amazed to know about people complaining about not getting payed $15 an hour when they work less than 40 hours a week. That's lazy
compared to the us dollar, the monetary value of a peso is laughable. and for the lower class and poor in mexico it's barely enough to support a family, even peanut butter is a luxury to some. even if its little pay and there vulnurbility to exploitation, most immigrants take it over what they can get paid home any day. a lot of people actually would be happy to go though legally. but some one from a low income and education and little to no marketable skills (for workers visa), there pathways to legalization is little to nonexistent. thats why there so many coming here illegally, it's wrong but there is not much choices for those folks (i know your comment is a month old but i wanted to share some comments, hope you dont mind)
I'm an immigrant myself and I understand the struggle. My parents instilled the importance of education, which is why they never questioned me speaking spanish as a Afro-Latino in Los Angeles. I embraced the American culture, which my parents appreciated. They witnessed my assimilation with struggles, but always appreciated, attended, and encouraged education. They told me " Don't worry about not knowing Spanish, English and White society rules!" Although I understood at an early age, I was able to gain citizenship at 20, attended USC at 22 w/a major in communications, landing me a well deserved job. Parents from south of the border, teach your kids more than pedantry. We live in a IOT society. If your not familiar with IOT, look it up!
Ebony Sweeney-Goodloe I suppose the jobs left are undesirable. For example over here they hire orange pickers. But farmers cannot afford to pay much for that job. The job is outdoors so it is done regardless of how hot or cold it is. And it’s physically demanding for hours at a time. Why pick oranges when they can work something else?
Because Americans are lazy. I offer homeless Americans jobs all the time but they are too lazy and rather ask for money in the corner of streets. When have you ever seen an illegal ask for money? They aren't lazy SOB like some Americans.
+Anuar Adame, WOW! Yes, there are addicts. Yes, there are disabled veterans and mentally ill people living on the streets. However, in America, we take pitty on the unfortunate and incapable. The farmers won't hire them, that's a separate issue. The citizens that can work cannot work a fifty hour job that doesn't begin to touch financial responsibilities of the citizen. We aren't hiding from law enforcement.
because employers want to pay minimum wage. i can guarantee you the landscaping company in this video doesnt pay more than 8/hr and offers ZERO benefits. injured on the job?
Its because democrats are paying people Americans to be lazy and homeless. Cut back the the amount people are being paid through welfare and other social services and that will solve the problem.
It's so inspiring, I swear. To see how they just hit the ground running after getting here and are ready to go to work 💪🏽 No excuses, no delays, no complaints, no days off, instead they're happy to start earning an honest living doing the hardest of work 💯 Mad, mad, respect 🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽
This reminds me of my mama and papa, they taught me so much while working in the fields and showed me the struggles the rest of our community goes through, and now I understand and value their meanings in life, do good in school, value you're money, value the food and home you already have just be grateful you are not starving and living in the streets, they always tell me "you may not have a game set, best clothing, or phone, but material things do not matter, because life has more values then stuff that will still be on earth when you die". I love them so much I wish to help them when I become older, take them to places, build them a nice home, give my papa and mama a nice troka, buy them the things they never gave me I am grateful for them and they way they taught me to see life! ❤️😔
I just don't understand how people can work so hard and enjoy life at the same time. Like I honestly can't find a way to do that myself. My full respect for these people
Hispanic here, grew up in south Texas border town. We went every summer to Michigan with my grandparents and uncles to work in the field’s from 12yrs old till I turned 21. Even though we didn’t have to but damn if it didn’t teach me life lessons along the way. Met tons of great ppl, a lot in this same situation. Made me the man I am today and I’m thankful I’m able to provide a good life for my wife and kids now.
I just started a job where im working with fellas like this. Underground interdicting work. And man, seeing how these guys work and the dedication they have. I feel bad for them man cause they get such a bad rep from the typical American citizen. Dudes deserve way more man.
This video resembles my dad's journey here in the US. He came in through a work visa, like the guys shown on the video. But through hard work, he was able to obtain his citizenship. Nowadays people keep regarding Mexicans as lazy. I do not see it. My parents work hard every day to provide for my siblings and I. When I graduated high school, my dad told me something that will never leave me. He told me that he didn't come to this country for his American dream. He came to this country for mine. Now almost 5 years later, I am in my first year in medical school and I could not be more grateful or proud of the parents that I have.
Mexicans have always been here, study geography, U S. History, and history of thee Americas!!, And watch what happens!!😃 Mexicans and there reservation brothers and sisters are the real americans.
American wll give americans money who bums for it or stand out in the streets for it but won't give the opportunity to people who willing to work hard at low rate pay
I am American and my family comes from Sweden, I always get asked if I have an issue with the immigration in Sweden when I’m not even from there. And no I have no problem with anyone trying to seek a safe haven and a good life. Just like these hard working men and woman trying to help their families and live lives they might not even get in Mexico. And to all the immigrants that have come over here, I want to say welcome with open arms, I appreciate you and I want you all to know that we need you.
357 mag I've met many Americans who actually have good family values for all but, the Majority just Judge everyone in the world just to make themselves feel good about themselves
That makes no sense. You idiots dont realize that illegal immigrants are being exploited. It would be better for them if they went through the legal process like everyone else.
chuy gomez try moving to Canada. See how easy that is. So stfu with your sob stories. Wake up and turn your news channel off. You just might gain the ability to think for yourself.
yes, i really see mexicans taking all the american jobs (sarcastic tone in voice) look, if an immigrant, who most of which can't speak english is such a threat to your job, them maybe you shouldn't have said job in the 1st place. i admire mexicans, they're hard working and try to make the best of their situation. whenever i come across even illegal ones i welcome them, and offer them something to eat. i don't blame them or anyone for attempting to have a better life. i'm of nigerian paternity 🇳🇬 ghanaian maternity 🇬🇭 and a little amazigh (berber) ancestry, although i was born and raised in america. 🇺🇸
@Eric Gilbreath ahh you sound like a mexican that gets pissed off when other mexicans speak English. So what if his name is Arabic or spelled in Arabic. This is America where we have liberties bro. Wtf man
@Eric Gilbreath I'm not im just saying that it doesn't matter if his name is spelled out in Arabic bro. It could be spelled in Chinese and it wouldn't matter to me. Im mexican and I wasn't raised up to be a racist or to discriminate anyone for whatever reason. Yes there are alot of people that hate or discriminate but not me
Yoda Ydyxz uhm they cant keep locals because of the harsh working conditions lol they also said they’re replacing students but that’s not the main reason why they came here
@Raa16sorry to break it to ya but actually that's not true most immigrants don't want / have support from the government. Most want to work for it themselves
Pure propaganda, i am a American and use to do building landscape + maintenance. I cut grass, shovel snow in winter. Fixed everything made 15 hr. Then company fired its maintenance crew me too and hired mexicans for 3 hr. Pure economics. Stop lies saying americans dont work so we need others. Its cheap labor is what you mean.
Not really just cheap labor isn’t that important it’s more like the great minds who built this country like inventions, great systems, but we can’t say that because we know what color those people were
Prime example of mind sight and eye sight. My parents came from this culture and now I understand what they went to through to get a better life. Love you mom and dad!
Trump complains so much about Mexicans but you've never seen him do any hard labor in his life. Americans themselves dont want these jobs. These immigrants take the hard labor and keep the American system going. America is a body. Immigrants, illegal or not, are a vital part of it.
I really wish them a brighter future, leaving your family behind and being alone in a foreign country it's one of the hardest things people have to go through. If you're hardworking and honest you'll succeed at life.
This is bull! I'm a black descendant of slaves in this country. You pay me a fair wage and I'll pick whatever. You still have black and Caucasian people in our Southern States picking cotton and fruit, for a decent wage. By the way they're not the hardest working people in the world
I grew up in a migrant family. We would travel from south Texas to Washington state. My parents were born in Texas. I remember the hard work we endured. I am grateful because I got to see first hand the American Dream that alot of people try to achieve. We went from poor to middle class within one generation. I am now 75 years old and what I lived made me so much stronger. I would not trade my life for the world.
not to be mean but i have also seen were if the company is mainly ran by hispanics or a hispanic family who manages wether it's a fast food joint or a store or warehouse ussually they like to keep that way among their own because thats what they are familiar with. it's called nepotism and it's a real thing. im actually full blooded mexican myself and have seen the discrimination at play especially here in the central valley. even in a big city like stockton you will be lucky if you get a call back 6 months down the road.
No, we simply can't work for slave wages, whereas immigrant labor continues to destroy the working wage for said jobs much like Farm labor jobs eventually creating a shortage.... Thus the current problem.

I don't want my comment to be taken the wrong way. I was just pointing out that it's hard to find a good job, and as lousy as these jobs are, most of them do pay above the minimum wage that I get, which is why I would be happy to have any of them.

I'm not sure why you guys are under the impression that I use welfare, or stand on the corner begging with a sign. All i did was say that I would be happy to have some of these jobs, because they pay more than minimum wage.
"They're takin err jerbs!" You really want to do that stuff? "Well no..." THEN SHUT UP. It's the employers who gave them the jobs anyways, they didn't take anything.
Funny thing is that I have a vacation property management business in Mexico and I have a hard time finding honest hard-working employees. Many don't show up or do crappy jobs. Many steal as well. I pay above average too. I think the hardest workers go to the US.
So Mexicans come north to work, Americans and Canadians, move to Mexico to retire.

Why is everyone talking about illegal immigration, these people are neither illegal nor immigrants, they're on a temporary work visa.
maybe because many people don't leave after their work visa expires
Most people become illegal by overstaying there work visa which is why anyone with a brain finds the Idea of building a wall retarded

Ayy It’sJoaquin heres the thing though America became what it is because people had the backbone to stand up for what they wanted to see changed and it happened. MLK Rosa Parks Abraham Lincoln and many more leaders. The issue is if Mexico is that bad people need to stand up and demand change you see protests everywhere in the USA make them happen in Mexico to get the gov’t to do something about it. The issue seems to be Hispanics in Mexico will not stand up for what they want to see changed and just try to run away from it if Americans did that that wanted change legal slavery without pay may still be a thing and many other things that were bad before. Stand up and fight for your homeland just like Americans did and still do to this day. Plus they under pay these people cause they know they can get away with it. So honestly you are defending the rich who hoard all their money and under pay most of their workers.
You got that right!
The fact that you even just said what you said shows that you have no idea what it's like out there. They're not taking our jobs just because they walked a thousand miles to do it they're taking our jobs because the work for practically next to nothing like $4 an hour when legal minimum wage is 725. The reason they're stealing all our jobs is not because we don't want him it's because we can't get them because they work for so cheap that they won't give the job to a white man anymore. They only give it to the ones that work for $4 illegally, which puts a complete Monopoly on the f****** industry of carpentry or any other construction aspect known to man and then nobody else but illegal immigrants can get in on the industry anymore because they don't work for $4 a f****** hour like goddamn dirt balls

Mexicans are the best labourers I know. I worked in a Salmon facility in AK for 4 seasons. My regular shift was 16hrs daily. As a supervisor, I needed people for an additional shift. It would be the Mexicans volunteering for the extra 4hrs for clean up, making it a total of 20hrs for them, 7 days a week for 3 months. They never complained of fatigue and still found it possible to laugh and be in high spirits. My girlfriend now is a Mexican:)
That's because they don't try very hard, they constantly cut corners so the job is much easier for them....I grew up in the southwest my whole life and this is just a known fact....anyone who does half assed work can work twice as long.

What’s terrible about this whole situation is that Mexico is so rich with natural resources and manpower. Mexicans work hard and understand family values. Yet, the country’s full potentials have been brutally suppressed by a tiny minority of rich and ultra corrupted ruling class in Mexico City. They have deliberately kept their own people poor and oppressed, in order to maintain control. The US or El Norte is used as a safety valve to keep those at the bottom rung of society from revolting, like they did in the 19th century. Moreover, by encouraging the disenfranchised people to go north, work hard and send money back home to their families, the ruling class can avoid the responsibility of providing an economic well-being and a safety net for their poorest citizens. If the US succeeds in closing its southern border, perhaps that will be a blessing in disguise for Mexico; because the poor and disenfranchised will have to face their oppressors and demand changes. Mexico has the potential to be a powerful nation if the people decide to drain the swarm of Mexico City and make it a better place. Mexican brothers, why sneak across the border to someone else’s country and forgo your human dignity to get taken advantage of by cheap Gringos, all the while despised by them, just so you can prop up a system that is keeping you down? You, the children of great men, such as Pancho Villa, should make Mexico great again by demanding for changes. Mexico has all the great potential to be an equal to the US, only if you clean house of the leeches and start again. I’m sorry that I cannot write this in Spanish so more of you can see my pleads to you to take actions for the future of your children.

I am a proud American! Raised in Atlanta, Ga. My parents are from a proud southern heritage as well. They farmed hogs in Cumming, Ga. My entire life has been lived in the Southeastern United States. And here's what I will say...After 45 years on this planet, I've learned to ALWAYS see a man (or woman) for the merits they bring to the table. Some of the hardest working people I have ever met in my life were Mexicans. Some of the kindest people I have ever met in my life were African American. White, Black, Brown or Yellow, we all have the potential to be great HUMAN BEINGS! One of my best friends as a child was from Durango, Mexico. As a result, I was exposed to his culture over the years. I learned to appreciate our differences and understand our similarities. We all need to get past societal misconceptions and understand that we are stuck on this 3rd rock from the sun together! I have great respect for all of my fellow citizens of the world! But it is incumbent upon us ALL to carry the load. Don't ever feel entitled because of your heritage! You are owed NOTHING due to your race, sex, religious orientation, etc. The merit of a man (or woman) is in his/her ability to rise to the occasion and put forth the effort to become a successful individual for the benefit of all mankind. God bless us all.
If only I could give your comment a love button!

My Mexican parents made me work when I was in 6th grade I’m currently in 9th grade still working with them during thanksgiving break, Christmas break, Easter, and summer so my siblings can be able to buy the shoes and clothes they want. It’s not the best for me cause my back always hurts but it’s worth it because I get to put food on the table for people. My parents always tell me once I go to college and I need money for books I can work in the fields so I can pay for them I’m thankful they told me that because if I’m not accepted in any jobs at least I know I can work in the fields.

My Father always told me to "work hard like a Mexican" and through my life I always have. I live in Texas and we have a lot of these guys who come up for the summer to do landscaping. They are hard working and do a hell of a better job than a lot of "American" workers. I moved for a short time to a northern state where the majority of the landscaping people were white guys and they would often be sitting , texting on their phone, sitting under a tree "resting" I would hire a Mexican for hard labor before I ever hired a 20 year old white boy with no work ethic.

I am American and i want to say MEXICAN WORKERS ARE AMAZING we got our brand new construction home built in 2 months! It was 1,400 sq ft let me say they worked Sunday through sunday 8 am to 8 pm Nd they did such a a great job I am sooo happy we have hard workers like them ... 3 years living in my home and everything is working perfectly fine
8 am to 8 pm? Tf
25 years ago, I worked for a landscaper in Ohio, on the outskirts of the suburbs. He owned several acres of property; where he had a storage facility and two greenhouses. He grew his own plants for his landscaping business. He had 15-20 employees all year round to tend the greenhouses and do the planting. On the other side of his property, he owned 4 houses; 3 of them he rented out, while the fourth one was much smaller and in very poor condition.
He legally hired 3 Mexicans through some program in 1999 and 2000; and puts them up in that run-down house, which I thought was strange. Their names were Palo, Cristobal (Cris), and Taos. They worked from March until September, Monday-Saturday, 8am-8pm; and were the hardest working guys!
I, along with my two close friends, Elias and Jamaal, became fast friends with these guys. Elias spoke fluent Spanish and Jamaal had a van and would drive these guys to wherever they needed to go to. I used to bring in muffins and granola bars every morning for breakfast for the six of us. During lunch break, the other employees noticed that Palo, Cris, and Taos weren't eating much. So, aside from me bringing in breakfast, the other employees were giving them extra food to eat. It was bizarre.
They worked the first season and came back in 2000; stayed in the same house. In mid-April, Elias gets a different job, but continues to secretly help out Palo, Cris, and Taos; and that's when we find out about all of the unethical crap our boss was doing to them. Elias learns that those guys were paid a lot less than the American employees--which didn't surprise me. They were also paying rent and utilities. After speaking with the other home renters, Elias discovers that they were paying only $600/month in rent, while the Mexican guys were paying a whopping $1000/month for that crappy run-down house! And because the house was a fixer-upper, the utility bills were extremely high! And the boss refused to fix the house up! With everything they had to pay, they were lucky to send home $10 a week to their families; which explains why they had very little food to eat. We were sickened by all of this!
One Saturday night, a few days before they had to pay the rent and utilities, Palo, Cris, and Taos had had enough. They gathered up all of the money they earned and left quietly back to Mexico! They didn't give the boss notice, because they knew he would take all of their money. And they waited until Saturday night because they were afraid that the boss would have them stopped before getting on the plane from Texas to Mexico! Now, because they didn't work on Sundays, the boss had no idea they were gone. When Monday rolled around, they were already in Mexico and the boss was pissed! He also figured out that Elias was helping them, but couldn't do anything because he was no longer employed with the company!
Needless to say, the boss never hired another Mexican after that. Last I heard, he no longer has his landscaping business! Elias still keeps in touch with Palo. He's doing well and has a construction job in Mexico, making enough money to support his family.
Respect, I’m proud to be Mexican. Bless all the hard working Hispanics

Let me tell you something, from a black woman: I love Mexicanos !!!!! You work hard, family orientated, great food, great music, very sweet people that like to have fun and the women and men are very lovely !!
Jupiter Stars, Great attitude. However, that is also racist. You cannot group people by religion, sex, sexual orientation, race, color, etc. People differ. I, for the millionth time, am not against illegals as a race, color or whatever. I say "I" because I cannot speak for others. The issue is illegal immigration. It, literally, is bad for the economy. If people didn't have a choice to hire cheaper labor, potential pay would be up. Welfare, for reasons unknown to me, pays more than working two jobs for some people. That needs to change. For balance to occur, we need factual data to determine cost of living against potential pay. You know, economics. This is not a heartwarming tale, this is law and structure. I am not for turning people away. Capitalism relies on growth in number and expansion. We need immigration. Just, the legal kind.

Before I was done with high school I went straight to work at this cable factory in my hometown where almost every person didn’t know a drop of English and were here hanging on to their green cards.

Unfortunately, no matter how hard they work or how long they stay with the factory, the stubborn managers will avoid any opportunities for giving raises or paid breaks. I’m saving for college currently and I want to be someone who stands up for all Visa holders rights here in the US. It is very hard to move forward when the systems above limit so many innocent people. :(
I'm Mexican and im 14 and I work with my dad in construction idc if its illegal for me to work at that age I like to work i work from 6am-10pm in the sun all day long.
I bought my first car by going to work in Arizona with my father, we worked 6 months construction 10 hour 6 days, they paid me 1,500 bucks and I managed to buy a car in Mexico and save some for school.

@Paradigm Shift jokes on you I'm calling the IRS, pay your taxes buddy
These are humble hard working people. I remember when these values were instilled in American workers. These days, most people don't want to be dirtied for any amount of income. They don't want to work hard. There is a clear sense of entitlement among our young people. And some deserve those types of jobs, such as those who have labored hard to educate themselves. But more often than not, there are people who don't have an education, don't have training, they possess no skills, yet they feel they deserve a high paying, low labor job.
Rumpled Trumpskin sadly true, younger and younger generations are given electronics, social media, videogames, instead of a hard working attitude and discipline. Lend them a shovel or pick up some trash, nooooo that would be "child abuse"
you're full of it. You are eating up the narrative that the slave masters use to drive down the price of labor. Whether its immigrants from the big city or other countries; native folks like me (and i am a minority) are being displaced by people who employers know they can replace permanent jobs with temporary jobs and temporary people. Its to impart instability and ensure slave labor. Don't tell me I don't want landscaping or fruit picking jobs; its all I've done all my life; and I grew up on a farm and have no problem doing hard or dirty jobs. Stop listening to lies. There are lots of people like me struggling because you eat this garbage up.
Rumpled Trumpskin umm it was never really applied because immgrants build these Country before America was born.
Those values should have being passed on by our immgrants forefathers. Along the way we lost.
America is an immigrant Country that was build and run by immigrants. Now immigrants are the ones keeping this Country aflow while dumbass rich people are brraking it.
Rumpled Trumpskin Drugs are legal now???? Im 18 fuck work and let's do drugzzzzz....

That's a lie slaves built the USA do some research! And we now reject slave labor and low wages
A white working man here too..I have my own cleaning business..I work alone..I do not have any workers..I have been undercut by the Mexicans that will work for nothing..I do not blame them..I blame the American companies that hire the illegal ones..I fully support the legal workers..You will not find a harder worker than a Mexican..the absolute most humble people I have EVER seen to be honest .. I think most business owners know that they really do get a great worker when they hire a Mexican..
this is actually what really motivates a man in general, the fact that he got his family relying on him which basically gives him a sense of ‘guardian-ship’. they would be heartbroken if they knew that their wife and children go to sleep with an empty stomach.
"Empty stomach" in Mexico? Plant a garden, that's where food comes from.
I would love nothing more than to sponsor a Mexican. I'm 57 years old and a HVAC technician. And I'm struggling to physically do my job. If I had a Mexican apprentice my life would be so much easier and I would get so much more work done. I might even be able to work for another 10 years. At this rate I'm almost cooked.
Mexicans are Americans. Mexico is on the continent of North America.
I married into a Mexican family. They are the hardest workers I have ever met. Vacation is not part of their vocabulary. They are also very kind and helpful people, even more than my family. They have become family.
No they're not
Chinese are the hardest working people
They do jobs no one in the world wants to
Americans wondering how we Mexicans endure at work, while doing it fast and good let me tell you how:
First off, in Mexico we work at least 48 hours a week for about $1,500 pesos (~$90 USD). Usually the working conditions are rough; bad to no equipment, barely any rest times, working under the sun...
And when we go to the US is basically the same thing but way easier and way higher payments, and to us 48 hours is not even "overtime".
I think that maybe you Americans are so used to having it easy that don't realize the huge advantage you got just for being born in the US.
I am amazed to know about people complaining about not getting payed $15 an hour when they work less than 40 hours a week. That's lazy
compared to the us dollar, the monetary value of a peso is laughable. and for the lower class and poor in mexico it's barely enough to support a family, even peanut butter is a luxury to some. even if its little pay and there vulnurbility to exploitation, most immigrants take it over what they can get paid home any day.
a lot of people actually would be happy to go though legally. but some one from a low income and education and little to no marketable skills (for workers visa), there pathways to legalization is little to nonexistent.
thats why there so many coming here illegally, it's wrong but there is not much choices for those folks
(i know your comment is a month old but i wanted to share some comments, hope you dont mind)
some jobs there have age discrimnation, you got folks ages 30+ who can't get jobs because they are not "young" enough.
I'm an immigrant myself and I understand the struggle. My parents instilled the importance of education, which is why they never questioned me speaking spanish as a Afro-Latino in Los Angeles.
I embraced the American culture, which my parents appreciated. They witnessed my assimilation with struggles, but always appreciated, attended, and encouraged education.
They told me " Don't worry about not knowing Spanish, English and White society rules!" Although I understood at an early age, I was able to gain citizenship at 20, attended USC at 22 w/a major in communications, landing me a well deserved job.
Parents from south of the border, teach your kids more than pedantry. We live in a IOT society. If your not familiar with IOT, look it up!
How can we have both American families unemployed and jobs that Americans won't work ?
Ebony Sweeney-Goodloe I suppose the jobs left are undesirable. For example over here they hire orange pickers. But farmers cannot afford to pay much for that job. The job is outdoors so it is done regardless of how hot or cold it is. And it’s physically demanding for hours at a time. Why pick oranges when they can work something else?
Because Americans are lazy. I offer homeless Americans jobs all the time but they are too lazy and rather ask for money in the corner of streets. When have you ever seen an illegal ask for money? They aren't lazy SOB like some Americans.
+Anuar Adame, WOW! Yes, there are addicts. Yes, there are disabled veterans and mentally ill people living on the streets. However, in America, we take pitty on the unfortunate and incapable. The farmers won't hire them, that's a separate issue. The citizens that can work cannot work a fifty hour job that doesn't begin to touch financial responsibilities of the citizen. We aren't hiding from law enforcement.
because employers want to pay minimum wage. i can guarantee you the landscaping company in this video doesnt pay more than 8/hr and offers ZERO benefits. injured on the job?
Its because democrats are paying people Americans to be lazy and homeless. Cut back the the amount people are being paid through welfare and other social services and that will solve the problem.
I love you guys and appreciate your hard work
True definition of a family man 👌🙏
It's so inspiring, I swear.
To see how they just hit the ground running after getting here and are ready to go to work 💪🏽
No excuses, no delays, no complaints, no days off, instead they're happy to start earning an honest living doing the hardest of work 💯
Mad, mad, respect 🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽

Don’t forget stupid and ugly too.
bob lee there beautiful mexicans aswell
BloodofPatriots you act like all mexicans do that, its like saying all white people are racist but not all of them are
The ones on welfare should work these jobs and stop depending on the government.
H Hope lot of people depends on the government legal illegal white light Hispanics most of the people on welfare are blacks and latins
That's mostly Puerto ricans which are americans
No most dominate people on welfare are white people. Not blacks and latinos. Black only make up 13% of the country.
1990758 illegals can’t use welfare inform yourself please do yourself the favor. Think logically
the constitution says the gov must provide so stfu rat
My dad jumped the border when he was 15 to work. He is 44 years old and hasnt stopped working. He just became a US citizen a few months ago!
This reminds me of my mama and papa, they taught me so much while working in the fields and showed me the struggles the rest of our community goes through, and now I understand and value their meanings in life, do good in school, value you're money, value the food and home you already have just be grateful you are not starving and living in the streets, they always tell me "you may not have a game set, best clothing, or phone, but material things do not matter, because life has more values then stuff that will still be on earth when you die". I love them so much I wish to help them when I become older, take them to places, build them a nice home, give my papa and mama a nice troka, buy them the things they never gave me I am grateful for them and they way they taught me to see life! ❤️😔
I just don't understand how people can work so hard and enjoy life at the same time. Like I honestly can't find a way to do that myself. My full respect for these people
Hispanic here, grew up in south Texas border town. We went every summer to Michigan with my grandparents and uncles to work in the field’s from 12yrs old till I turned 21. Even though we didn’t have to but damn if it didn’t teach me life lessons along the way. Met tons of great ppl, a lot in this same situation. Made me the man I am today and I’m thankful I’m able to provide a good life for my wife and kids now.
I just started a job where im working with fellas like this. Underground interdicting work. And man, seeing how these guys work and the dedication they have. I feel bad for them man cause they get such a bad rep from the typical American citizen. Dudes deserve way more man.
Mexicans are the harder workers I never seen in my life..I tried to keep up with them once..impossible they don't get tired!!!
🤣
We get tired too bro, we're not terminators...🤣
This video resembles my dad's journey here in the US. He came in through a work visa, like the guys shown on the video. But through hard work, he was able to obtain his citizenship. Nowadays people keep regarding Mexicans as lazy. I do not see it. My parents work hard every day to provide for my siblings and I. When I graduated high school, my dad told me something that will never leave me. He told me that he didn't come to this country for his American dream. He came to this country for mine. Now almost 5 years later, I am in my first year in medical school and I could not be more grateful or proud of the parents that I have.
Mexicans have always been here, study geography, U S. History, and history of thee Americas!!, And watch what happens!!😃
Mexicans and there reservation brothers and sisters are the real americans.
American wll give americans money who bums for it or stand out in the streets for it but won't give the opportunity to people who willing to work hard at low rate pay
I am American and my family comes from Sweden, I always get asked if I have an issue with the immigration in Sweden when I’m not even from there. And no I have no problem with anyone trying to seek a safe haven and a good life. Just like these hard working men and woman trying to help their families and live lives they might not even get in Mexico. And to all the immigrants that have come over here, I want to say welcome with open arms, I appreciate you and I want you all to know that we need you.
Incredible how you People doesn't have any family value even for immigrants!! We are all Human being
chuy gomez we are but some of us obey laws
357 mag I've met many Americans who actually have good family values for all but, the Majority just Judge everyone in the world just to make themselves feel good about themselves
That makes no sense. You idiots dont realize that illegal immigrants are being exploited. It would be better for them if they went through the legal process like everyone else.
Tera Tokomi indeed thats what these people did before arriving to Denver.
chuy gomez try moving to Canada. See how easy that is. So stfu with your sob stories. Wake up and turn your news channel off. You just might gain the ability to think for yourself.
yes, i really see mexicans taking all the american jobs (sarcastic tone in voice) look, if an immigrant, who most of which can't speak english is such a threat to your job, them maybe you shouldn't have said job in the 1st place. i admire mexicans, they're hard working and try to make the best of their situation. whenever i come across even illegal ones i welcome them, and offer them something to eat. i don't blame them or anyone for attempting to have a better life.
i'm of nigerian paternity 🇳🇬 ghanaian maternity 🇬🇭 and a little amazigh (berber) ancestry, although i was born and raised in america. 🇺🇸
@Eric Gilbreath because probably his parents were
@Eric Gilbreath ahh you sound like a mexican that gets pissed off when other mexicans speak English. So what if his name is Arabic or spelled in Arabic. This is America where we have liberties bro. Wtf man
@Eric Gilbreath I'm not im just saying that it doesn't matter if his name is spelled out in Arabic bro. It could be spelled in Chinese and it wouldn't matter to me. Im mexican and I wasn't raised up to be a racist or to discriminate anyone for whatever reason. Yes there are alot of people that hate or discriminate but not me
@Eric Gilbreath conform to what? The status quo? He's no different from us. You can be a proud american and still embrace your heritage.
I have no problem with it as last long as they don't enter illegally
The people of the video aren't illegals.
“All we want is work” never heard an American say that😂😂
The wrong title. The man told you already they are covering for shifts that were left by the either students or seniors who worked there
Yoda Ydyxz uhm they cant keep locals because of the harsh working conditions lol they also said they’re replacing students but that’s not the main reason why they came here
Latinos generally work harder than all other immigrants...at least in DC metro area
@ʕ•́ᴥ•̀ʔ just my observations, having worked with many people from different countries
When Americans say that illegal immigrants are taking their jobs, why didn't Americans apply for the job when it had an opening? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@Raa16 you see mexicans aren't lazy
@Raa16 at least they go look for a job they don't go asking for money on the streets
@Raa16sorry to break it to ya but actually that's not true most immigrants don't want / have support from the government. Most want to work for it themselves
I bet some homeless people would die for an opportunity to work.
What's stopping the homeless from working? Its time for them to stop making excuses.
Mexicans are so strong 💪🏽
When I eat my food I say thank you for the Mexican workers
Pure propaganda, i am a American and use to do building landscape + maintenance. I cut grass, shovel snow in winter. Fixed everything made 15 hr. Then company fired its maintenance crew me too and hired mexicans for 3 hr. Pure economics. Stop lies saying americans dont work so we need others. Its cheap labor is what you mean.
Forgot to mention African Americans also built this country. So much pain and suffering they went through
Lmao
Yeah they had to get beat
To work we work to eat
Not really just cheap labor isn’t that important it’s more like the great minds who built this country like inventions, great systems, but we can’t say that because we know what color those people were
Prime example of mind sight and eye sight. My parents came from this culture and now I understand what they went to through to get a better life. Love you mom and dad!
The hispanic population is 5 times higher now than in the 70s. Who did the farming then?
Trump complains so much about Mexicans but you've never seen him do any hard labor in his life. Americans themselves dont want these jobs. These immigrants take the hard labor and keep the American system going. America is a body. Immigrants, illegal or not, are a vital part of it.
I’m sick of the employers cheating the system! Pay people an honest wage, no matter where they are from!
Then we wouldn't need "Brazeros".
2:53 That is the look of hope and opportunity
Right!
To our fellow Hebrew Hispanics people- we appreciate your hard work. Effort pays off.
Hebrew ?
I really wish them a brighter future, leaving your family behind and being alone in a foreign country it's one of the hardest things people have to go through. If you're hardworking and honest you'll succeed at life.
I don’t think I could ever do that kind of work, my respect to these hard working and much needed folks, god bless them.
MAKE MEXICO GREAT AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Latinos in general
Get rid of the incompetent Political Class.
Lol y’all are incapable of that
This is bull! I'm a black descendant of slaves in this country. You pay me a fair wage and I'll pick whatever. You still have black and Caucasian people in our Southern States picking cotton and fruit, for a decent wage. By the way they're not the hardest working people in the world
maybe we are not.. but we also are not looting walmarts
I grew up in a migrant family. We would travel from south Texas to Washington state. My parents were born in Texas. I remember the hard work we endured. I am grateful because I got to see first hand the American Dream that alot of people try to achieve. We went from poor to middle class within one generation. I am now 75 years old and what I lived made me so much stronger. I would not trade my life for the world.
not to be mean but i have also seen were if the company is mainly ran by hispanics or a hispanic family who manages wether it's a fast food joint or a store or warehouse ussually they like to keep that way among their own because thats what they are familiar with. it's called nepotism and it's a real thing. im actually full blooded mexican myself and have seen the discrimination at play especially here in the central valley. even in a big city like stockton you will be lucky if you get a call back 6 months down the road.
“They come and steal our jobs” y’all work like us? We come to find jobs.
No, we simply can't work for slave wages, whereas immigrant labor continues to destroy the working wage for said jobs much like Farm labor jobs eventually creating a shortage.... Thus the current problem.

My dad was an immigrant and he works very hard and I’m still grateful for what he’s done, he went from poor to becoming successful and I’m already working at landscaping in 15 years old
Not wanting to work for pennies an hour under the hot sun is not laziness. It is self respect!!!
Exactly, everyone acts like busting your back under the hot sun for nothing an hour is somehow a status symbol, it's idiotic and pathetic. All Brawn and no brain gets you nowhere and those in the video prove it.

I don't want my comment to be taken the wrong way.

Maybe they prefer welfare 🤣

Mexicans are the best hands , we are hardworking people , we are starving to make it.
Reason why they don't want is because they pay to low and everyone person who does work such jobs needs government assistance to get by
You're fuckin stupid. Some construction companies pay better than you think
My Mexican friend makes a 1,000 a week tell me that’s not enough to love on he drives a nice car as well
I see a lot of legal black workers being replaced by cheap illegal workers in construction particularly in the south.
I doubt it
That's false.
"They're takin err jerbs!"
You really want to do that stuff?
"Well no..."
THEN SHUT UP. It's the employers who gave them the jobs anyways, they didn't take anything.
trimming grass and using a ride on lawnmower?
Funny thing is that I have a vacation property management business in Mexico and I have a hard time finding honest hard-working employees. Many don't show up or do crappy jobs. Many steal as well. I pay above average too. I think the hardest workers go to the US.
That's the same with America too. I always here people making fun of America. Saying how lazy they are.
¡Whoops!

Why isn't there a "Mexican Dream" that doesn't require emmigration?
