Playing the "Immigrant" Card

This is what happens when you support unscrupulous companies that hire labor they know has been smuggled in illegally into a community (or assisted in that effort). After the worker is smuggled in, their family members, friends, long lost cousins are not far behind. What you end up with is a community that is saddled with the social and economic cost of supporting an illegal labor pool. These people are not immigrants. Of course I don't have to explain the increased costs associated with schools, hospitals and social services. So for Chattanooga its either raise taxes, go in debt or cut services. Don't you think it makes more sense for a company to be an integral part of a community then one that undercuts and burdens a community by importing illegal labor?
