Latino workers are the "backbone" of many industries.  I know remanufacture mill owners who hire virtually all-Latino crews.  They pay them well and all applicable taxes are paid.  Why Latino?  because they a) show up for work,, consistently and on time; b) work hard while they're there; c) get along with other workers and their employers; d) listen to and follow directions....in sum, they're great employees.  On the flip side., their experience with Anglo workers is "no so great."......late to work,  hung-over and didn't get to work, showed up with alcohol on breath or obviously under the influence of drugs; did the minimum expected...or less; hard to get along with and did't listen to and/or follow directions....were I running such a business, believe me I'd hire Latinos.  BTW:  Very few local employers knowingly hire "illegal" workers.  Gary Crum
