Actually, we've got our share. There is a town about 15 miles east of
Iowa City called "West Liberty" that has quite literally been taken
over by Mexicans, in the last 9 years.

In my former business (newspaper distribution) I used to get out there
every few weeks, and it was an amazing transformation to observe.
First one of the stores posted their signage in Spanish, then another
-- then they ALL went Spanish.

This, of course, was quite a shock for a small farming community -- but
the turkey processing plant was like a magnet to the illegals. Hard
work, cash payout, no strings attached. They could make more in a day
there than in a month at home. Why the INS didn't just shut that plant
down, I'll never know.

Maybe the same reasons they've never shut down ANYONE in over 30 years. To
wit: We've the best politicians that money can buy -- on both side of the
aisle.
