Let all bearers of that most peculiar of commodities -- themselves -- come to Amerika like Kafka's figment does.
If "they" come here, then jobs stay at home . And even if we native-born don't fill 'em -- what's the net loss down-side-wise? And we can org 'em into unions if they share our freedoms, whereas back home they might get disappeared for doing such a naughty thing as trying to act collectively.
I say better the exploited wagery of the world unite here to fight the great class fight . Aren't we are all class brothers and sisters? Let's see to it the creators of all value get to capture a bigger share of the benefits of trade . Let's beat the trans-nats to the punch . Let's open the borders to our compadres. Through mobility at least equal to capital's, we have a higher wage to gain .

Dont worry, OP, prophets are never honored in their own time (or words to that effect.)
And now for two new ways to waste your time and money:
Naomi Wolf announces formation of The American Freedom Movement, a partnership of the Center for Constitutional Rights, MoveOn, and one more org I've forgotten -- a grassroots project to stop the attack on the Constitution.
And Democracy for America has a citizens co-sponsor petition for the impeachment of Gonzales.
This all reminds me of the old FBI Mafia campaigns: if you cant get them for murdering people, get them for tax evasion.

Fun, and somewhat related anecdote:
A project planner at the factory where I work was praising a foreman he used to know in CA for always pairing off White guys with Mexican guys in the field or on the shop floor. Because, "That way they can't talk to each other."
So many levels to unpack there. Not that I haven't run in to the "bar-the-door" alarmists in the Union crowd from time to time. But you see my point, I'm sure.
If op's grand plan is going to work, we'd better all brush up on our Spanish, and fast. :/

You can never be sure with OP, of the wild and whirling words, but my impression was that "Come one, Come All" was a joke.
Here in Calif., there's not a single manual job, as far as I can see, that's not being done exclusively by Mexicans or other Latins: restaurant service; nannying; retail clerking; construction; gardening; maintenance; roofing; tree-trimming; hauling -- anything hot, dirty, tedious or hard.
It's already happened!
