I live about ten minutes outside of Cincinnati in Northern Kentucky and there has been a total explosion of the Mexican population here over the last few years.
They do work all the crap jobs that so many American teens deem below them and also ones that American adults don't want. What bothers me is that so many of them are not here legally. The apartments where we used to live were constantly being checked out because there would be twenty people living in an two bedroom apartment. Maybe two or three of them were here legally.
I don't have a problem with them coming here. I have no problem with anyone trying to better themselves. I really wish the "system" would do something more to regulate the immigration. They have found a large number of gang members living here illegally and that is not cool. Not only that but for their own protection. There have been several cases where people here illegally have been living in the barns on the farms where they work for little money. They do it because they have to or they may get caught. That is just wrong. If they can develop a new system, maybe this will not be such a regular thing. No one deserves to have to live that way.
My only real beef with people who want to immigrate here from any country is LEARN ENGLISH! I am not saying give up their heritage but just learn English. Whatever country you want to live in, the law should be to learn the native language.
