There is a labor shortage in every industry, nationwide. The only answer is immigration. We need to develop a LEGAL way to bring in the people who want to work. Where else will we find the landscapers, the CNAs, the housekeepers, the waiters, and those who will take care of us, and also pay taxes into the system.There is legal way, and has been for 100 years. the problem is all the illegal line jumpers
America has a big problem with homeless in big cities. (LA is abhor-able). I would imagine some of those people could become employed with the many jobs that are available with this labor shortage in every industry. I don't understand why we need immigrants to fill these jobs when we have so many homeless people who are able to do it. I would imagine many homeless don't want to work but that is another thread. Maybe I'm not understanding the big picture.
