Your equivocation doesn't change the fact that Cesar Chavez was the American field worker competing with illegals, or is that fundamental fact beyond your very dwarfed intellectual grasp?was
Your "white" qualifier is racist bullshit.
Furthermore, Chavez's struggle with illegals echoed Samuel Gompers' exact sentiments from a century earlier. So, your "time qualifier" is equally bullshit.
Coretta Scott King argued exactly the same thing as Samuel Gompers and Cesar Chavez, and their credibility as subject matter experts trumps yours every damn day of the week. Originally Posted by I B Hankering

wasChavez was an AMERICAN agricultural worker who struggled to keep illegals from driving down wages for American workers.
I agree that Chavez was a field worker Originally Posted by matchingmole

And did you actually dredge up the classic marathon ass whipping handed out on the Coretta Scott King quote?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

He is not a field worker
See any difference?

Chavez and King were anti-illegal immigration. Are you?

But everyone here can see you're being dishonest and lying.
Now you proffer more straw man bullshit about Americans "clamoring" for low paying agricultural work when it was explained in great detail to your duplicitous self that illegals have made such work unprofitable for Americans to compete in that industry.
It remains that YOU have substantively FAILED to disprove the ECON 101 fundamental law of supply and demand: too much exploitable labor in the labor market drives down the costs (i.e., wages) of labor. Hence, a surfeit of illegal labor has a negative impact on the wages of American workers. Originally Posted by I B Hankering

Furthermore, in none of the 474 occupations do illegal immigrants constitute a majority of workers.
