Abstract/Contents: | Examines the potential effect deporting illegal immigrants would have on the golf industry. Suggests that "the argument that illegals are taking jobs from [The United State's] citizens...is hogwash." Also states that he does not "believe there are many [Americans] out there who aspire to work nine months out of the year at a low level job in the agricultural golf or landscape industries, or full time year round at a service position in the hospitality trade." Suggests that "the legislatures need to develop a plan to maintain [America's] existing population of suspect employees through an amnesty program which would include the identification of everyone who is questionable on the work force." |
