The truth is undocumented workers contribute immensely to their communities and the economy. They have established businesses, bought homes and immersed themselves seamlessly into American life.
Undocumented immigrants contribute at least $300 billion annually to the U.S. GNP, according to a UCLA study."Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting the same results is the definition of insanity. " Albert Einstein.

I believe I bought my house in Aurora from illegals. They spoke only Spanish and were in a big hurry to get back. They abandoned a debt, a bank account, and a car. For at least a year, people would come to the house looking for them.

The recent housing bubble was caused by interest rates dropping significatly. This also yielded a huge increase in new construction, something that the builders are still trying to continue. We don't need hundreds of brand new subdivisions and the fact that it's slowing down is a GOOD THING. The doomsday reports will say how builders are going bankrupt, etc. - but that is there fault for being poor planners and not paying attention to current trends. Once the new housing market slows, pre-owned homes will experience a surge in value.
You will also see some doomsday reports from the lenders side, because refinances are down 29% - yet home purchases are only down about 4%. It's no big deal. There is no way we could have maintained the frenzied pace in 2004/2005 and it's a normal balancing of the housing market. Of course, these will be convenient statistics for the pro-illegals to use.The John McCain Call Center

The housing bubble is a fascinating phenomenon. Middle class people were able to re-fi using their homes as ATMs. The subprime and no-doc loan people were able to get shaky folks into houses. Construction exploded. And now, construction jobs are starting to dry up, contracts and developments are being cancelled, and people are stuck owing more on their homes than they are now worth. The only thing keeping house prices as high as they are, in my opinion, is people's understandable reluctance to risk a short sale. REOs are everywhere: in my neighborhood why buy from an owner for 150-170 when the bank will sell you a house for 130-140?

Betsy, we have the same problem in UT. There are so many housing subdivisions which have been build and are being built, and the houses are not even sold. I don't have actual numbers, but the stats of available houses and condo complexes must be staggering. There is a new subdivision by our house which is almost done. It started construction over 2 years ago, and there will be a total of 21 houses. They are building the last 2 now, and only 5 have people in them. The rest are still for sale.
This is a common site everywhere in Salt Lake City and the surrounding valley. Many of the existing neighborhoods surrounding these new homes are also for sale, and the prices have dropped considerably."Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting the same results is the definition of insanity.
