If so, you should be able to easily cite the relevant posts. Of course 
you won't be able to. The only reason you think me a republican is 
because I oppose many of your views.

You still don't understand it. 

When you support something like illegal immigration you are undermining 
unions, the wages of existing workers by increasing the labor supply, 
worker safety, the minimum wage, and host of other issues. 

Someone like limbaugh would make the invalid comparision you do between 
automation and cheap labor as some sort of 'you must change with the 
times, tough shit' sort of thing that is great for a free market. 

The problem is, the market isn't free and illegal labor exists to 
undercut unions, minimum wage, etc and so forth. Automation on the other 
hand does nothing of the sort. While it may eliminate some jobs it 
creates others. Illegal immigration simply drives down wages by 
increasing the labor supply. 

Instead of having one worker making a decent wage using automation, 5 
additional people are brought into the country and there are 6 people 
making a poverty level or below wage doing the same job. 

I find it rather interesting that you wish to increase the labor supply 
with illegal workers undermining the democrat cornerstones of unions and 
minimum wage.
