**Feds arrest illegal aliens at work sites in Buffalo and in five states** Federal immigration and customs officials are serving arrest and search warrants at three Western New York locations this morning, as part of a larger investigation into the use of illegal aliens at work sites in five states. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, working with the U.S. attorney’s office and other law-enforcement partners, served the warrants at three locations in Western New York, plus other sites in Pennsylvania, Ohio, West Virginia and Georgia. The investigation is targeting both illegal aliens and their employers. More information about the investigation and arrests will be available later today, according to ICE officials. Good, now keep it up. ---

Unfortuntely what motivates them isn’t the fact we’re being over-run with mexicans, it’s because the government loses a lot of money on under-the-table labor. ---

They are told how much they can sell milk for but then they are also told how much to pay workers. Gee I wonder why they are trying to save money? Maybe just to survive? The govt should just stay the fuck out of it. If you are too retarded to figure it out: paying workers $10/hour doesn’t work unless you can raise your price!!! ---

Farmers get subsidies out the ass in return for accepting said regulation. Otherwise they would be able to increase their prices. You can’t have your cake and eat it too. 2.) If you can’t afford to compensate employees legally and still turn a profit, or the job is horrible enough that you can’t pay people the level required, your business sucks. do something else. 3.) Keep crying poor that you can’t afford to pay your workers, maybe you’ll have to downsize to a half million dollar house if you have to pay them a quarter more an hour. Your house is beautiful, but it lost you that argument. [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/el-caporal-owner-of-mexican-restaurant-in-cheektowaga-arrested-as-illegal-alien/46983.md?page=2)
