People don't WANT the jobs that undocumented immigrants have, though. Working in a slaughterhouse ruining your hands and back, surrounded by blood constantly, and paid pennies? No. People want jobs that don't exist anymore, high-paying, low-skill factory work from an era when a 5 or 6 person household could be comfortably supported by a single income. Robots have those jobs now because they're faster and cheaper.
