"...illegals are who they depend upon says a lot about pay scales, racism, class, and entitlement." HUH?! 
There are No pay scales for Illegal workers....they're ILLEGAL.
There is No "Class-ism" in America - ONLY what you may believe about one's self. The Rich
may believe they are in a higher "class"...just as the poor may think the same thing about the rich. But both are wrong. The Rich just can point to having "better stuff"- but it in No Way does that automatically infer Class, Intelligence, or "breeding". IE: The Kardashians.
"Entitlement" may possibly exist Anywhere, and by ANY group of people.
 "Racism" is unrelated to skills being paid for equitably, IMO. That seems to be a fear of the 'minorities'- possibly rooted in an inferiority complex. If I hired a man to do something, my only requirement is Skill. I would not think " Welll...You're a Mexican...so I will pay you less"; nor visa versa.
