Politics of Popular Music- Mexican Immigration

I've never thought the White Stripes to be political musicians- and I'm not suggesting they are- but I really dig this verse from their new single 'Icky Thump.'

Well, Americans:
What, nothin' better to do?
Why don't you kick yourself out?
You're an immigrant too.

Who's usin' who?
What should we do?
Well you can't be a pimp
And a prostitute too
