Interesting to find that your opinion of immigration laws is formed by service at a psueodo-mexican fast food joint? The immigration laws and policies are not sound because you were inconvenienced? The description sounds more like a management problem than an example of national immigration failures. I’ve eaten at a couple Chipotle’s that did not have “Latino” staff and provided good service. Not sure I’m thrilled with their menu or prep but your anecdotal basis for a national policy decision is defeated by my anecdotal observations.

If we need immigrant labor to do those jobs that Americans just won’t do, or won’t do to your satisfaction, why do you (we) not demand that the government do its job and provide a legal basis for guest workers? Why do we accept “it is not convenient or it is too hard” as national policy? Enforce the law. Illegal is illegal. Enforce the law. My kids can’t get in-state tuition to my alma mater, but those of an illegal can. I get to pay for my medical as well as the illegal’s. I get to educate my kids and pay for the illegal’s. Yep, I’m not real thrilled with US immigration policy or those who believe I should keep paying for the new voters they want.
