    you want to know the real messed up part about our Gov't and Legal Immigrants, they won't let them pay taxes. My dad had a brazillian working as a sub for his stucco co. and he wanted to pay self employment taxes for him and his employees so they could stay legal and so on. He went to the tax collectors office to get a tax id number to start the process, they would not give him one and when he asked how was he supposed to pay taxes, they said don't worry about it. now granted they only had work visa's and were not full citizens yet. He was legal to work and live here but didn't have to pay taxes. unbelievable.

    The car companies follow the law. The UAW forces them too, it's why(one reason) the Union was formed so workers could get a fair wage. My guess is they would hire cheap illegal labor if they could. Maybe the farm workers should form a Union, good idea:rock:

    Shwat???? It takes the UAW to make companies follow the law? Wonder how Toyota manages to produce vehicles with a happy work force?

    On the other hand if they would form a Union they could be over paid by $15 an hour with free health care and other benefits.:)

    Do you know if there are no illegals working in a Toyota plant? I honestly do not know.

    Under Federal law you have to show two type if ID to work in the US.
