That has been proven to be untrue, especially in this economy where jobs are hard to come by. Really though, it's the companies who hire the illegals that are to blame. They aren't doing it because they can't find anyone to do the job at minimum wage, it's because they can pay under the table and not have to worry about things like benefits, unemployment, etc. In the end, they get to pocket more cash while taking advantage of the illegal situation.
And before anyone says that Americans demand too much pay, I see it this way: If someone is unhappy with their pay, they can go elsewhere, but they should not expect the gov't to support their laziness.
