Undocumented Residents Help Prevent Jobs from Going Overseas

I don't believe I've heard this argument for undocumented residents before.

They save jobs from going overseas.

The greatest reason many of our jobs go overseas is that our own workforce does not work for such low wages. Well, the person from Mexico sometimes works at about the lowest wage we have, meaning he or she does as much as any American worker to keep jobs from going overseas.

Sometimes the undocumented person does not stay in the U.S., taking much of their earnings with them. But, even then, while they are here they are buying our food, entertainment and other products.

And, some do stay. So, the full benefit of keeping the job in the U.S. is a reality, with them.
