Growing up in Phoenix, Tercero recalls a time when Spanish was discouraged from being spoken in schools and Hispanics were limited in the jobs they could pursue and the places they could live.
Since then, self-made businessmen like Tercero, Rivas and Manrique have become models of success in Phoenix's small business community, said Todd Landfried, a spokesman for Arizona Employers for Immigration Reform.
"This law punishes local business owners who make a living catering to a certain market," Landfried said. "They've done everything expected of them. So why are they the ones getting punished?"

Damn..Gotta feel for these folks. The implications of this new Arizona law ARE huge. I've just realized that I've been personally underestimating the possible effects of this law but this could literally spell disaster for Arizona's economy. Very very big mistake by Arizona lawmakers.
