'Guest workers' are slaves, mostly from Mexico who are not citizens, but given permits to live here temporarily to do 'the jobs most Americans won't do'. How much do these poor people affect our overall economy?

Not to mention the slaves overseas who make all of our gadgets. What if we suddenly stopped using slave labor? Would our economy suffer? What would happen if we got rid of all of our so called guest workers?
