And it wasn't all > that long ago. Yeah, like now. I know people who work in chicken-packing plants. Depending on where you live, you can still see non-illegals doing work such as landscaping and roofing. I even know native born U.S. citizens who have made this type work their livelihood and even passed the business to their children. And there are plenty of non-illegals who own maid services (and no, they don't all hire illegals to do the work for them). Some of the hottest franchises for small businesses were in the janitorial services. It usually takes a while for those businesses to get to the point where they can hire outside help. And haven't mechanical dishwashers displaced most of the illegal immigrant dishwashers, anyway?
