I can get my car fixed by an overpriced American or a fair priced Illegal.

Why would I choose the American?

It’s legal for me to pay the illegal to fix my car. Also the illegal does a better job and is cheaper.

This tells me you drive an old piece of chit, probably a LeSabre from the 80s. Illegals don't have the sophisticated diagnostic equipment required to work on modern cars, nor access to the parts chain.

lmao you peasant.

You are paying an illegal, who will most likely send that money off to Mexico, harming the US economy. You realize the biggest economic input in the Mexican economy is funds repatriated from the US, right?

I mean, I always knew dems were America-last, but they used to hide it.

Why do you assume the illegal will send the money to Mexico?

Does your illegal shade tree mechanic offer any type of warranty by chance?

If I have issues I call the person back and problem solved. Much more affordable for better quality work.

Will avoid going to Americans since most are lazy srs

I thought there were no more illegal immigrants in America - didn't Drumpfh kick them all out ?

Or was he just telling America another lie ?



President Donald Trump pledged Monday night to begin deporting millions of undocumented immigrants who have entered the U.S. illegally ....

"Next week ICE will begin the process of removing the millions of illegal aliens who have illicitly found their way into the United States. They will be removed as fast as they come in," Trump wrote on Twitter.


https://www.politico.com/story/2019/...aliens-1367012



Edit : that article was from 06/18/2019.

So I guess Drumpfh was just lying. Weird.

Simple- the Mexican economy’s biggest input is repatriated US dollars. So obviously, there is a high likelihood that your dollar is exiting the US economy when you hand it over to a person with questionable immigration status.

Doesn't that reduce motivation for more people to come here illegally, since it helps them live in Mexico ?


Those illegal immigrants repatriating their earnings are American patriots, trying to reduce illegal immigration.

In the mid 1800s you'd have been saying no broke people were rushing out to California to discover gold. Stories of luck and big discoveries were only going to dissuade others from heading out there.

Good work isn't cheap and cheap work isn't good.

Honestly, if Jose is better, he's not going to charge much less. An illegal business may charge less, because they aren't paying the taxes, insurances and other expenses that makes running a legit legal business so expensive. So take your car to Hector, if he messes it up, you are up chit creek without a paddle. Something goes wrong later, you take it back, "no, no we no see no Hector no more". Then again he might be on point, you never know.

Does OP not know how easy it is to do most maintenance and fixes yourself? Once you're slightly comfortable you'll save yourself $100-400 an hour doing it yourself. An illegal doing a better job? Highly doubtful. No loss to them if they don't.

Far better off paying more up front for a used Japanese car that needs little maintenance and fixes and letting Americans occasionally fix it than buying American and letting an illegal fix it.

Illegals generally do better work than your typical lazy American.

I used illegals to install a deck. Wen to Home Depot, rounded up some dudes, and they did quality work.

Lazy American wanted to charge more and do chit work.

What about the torches and saws they bought off ebay to cut their way through the wall?
I know they are harbor freight quality, but if you have those you are most of the way there to removing nuts and bolts on rusted out 80's chitboxes.
