I'll give you a hint....it ends in an "O". And, it's usually short and stupid. |

The 20 million illegal immigrants are the biggest strain on the United States of America.
You will notice that I did not say Mexicans because all of the 20 million are not Mexican. They may make up the vast majority of the illegals but they are not the only illlegals the U.S. has to worry about. |

first of ll, thank you for not writing a stupid question-seriously-this is a step up from the others-kudos u r improving. but the 20 million illegals still lose.
they r a burden on our country-(deficit, healthcare, rise in crime rates, disease(only in some states), burden on education system, taking jobs(thus increasing unemployment rate), and more)
but this was a good question- i will emphasize that |

neither, do not forget that the 300 million americans do contribute to their own economy, the same as do the 20 millions mexicans. but i see your point, it is much easier for the government to instigate a "fear", or "resentment" culture against the mexicans than to try and sort out the mess it has created. blame someone else culture |

Damn, 8 million more than what you said last night. how many are sleeping at your house? You answered your own question, Americans, in America. Wow, you are a Stange One. |

You are the biggest strain on America.
There shouldn't be any Mexicans in America- unless they are here on holiday or a work visa- If they are here in America and wish to reside here permanently they can call themselves Americans and conduct themselves as such or get the h*ll out. |

Good point.
There are many more poor white Americans who draw from welfare then all of the minorities combined.
It's funny to me how many people don't realize that most illegals DO pay taxes and therefore are contributing to the system that legal Americans who refuse to get a job draw from.
I also find it amazing that so many people blame their joblessness on illegal immigrants, when every time I open the classifieds I see tons of jobs listed and I know for a fact the temp services have so many vacancy's they can't fill them all. |

the 20 million that don't pay taxes, that don't give to the system that they take from.
let me take 5 cents of every single dollar you make and then after time see how you feel for me taking it yet not doing one damn thing in return. see how long you'll continue to give me that money. no different.
mexicans keep pulling this race card or other issues to by pass the real issue....you are hear illegal, period.
the way you all word it is like this......ok...I shot a man and killed him...but since then I have done a good job at work, I cleaned up my neighbors yard and I took my kids to school....so because of those items the murder I did can't be charged against me.
A LAW IS A LAW IS A LAW IS A LAW....to break one, any one, IS AGAINST THE LAW. |

Your impied point is irrelevant. The straining of resources and risk to security arguments are supporting premises of the contention that illegal immigrants should not be here, which is an argument that stands on its own as a matter of compliance with the law. They are not intended as part of a comparitive argument, and don't need to be supported on that ground. The relevance is in the respective status of the two groups, whereas one is lawfully present and the other isn't, consequences from the latter group's presence matters more, for some consequences from the former group are inherent but legal if resulting from the exercise of the rights of their citizenship. You're distorting the argument.
To be clear, while one side may or may not be more straining than the other, such a strain is more justified by legal citizens, and, again, the argument is being distorted. |

The 20 million illegals.
There are a lot more than 20 million 'Mexicans'. Honestly, how racist. |

So I guess we should all leave and give it back to the Native Americans, it's more there country then anyone eles. Mexicans need to stay in their own country. |

There are 106,000,000 Mexicans in Mexico but there would be 126,000,000 if it weren´t for illegal immigration to the US. I guess Mexico can thank the US for taking some of its strain off, right? |

I think the mexicans that are getting stuff that i never dreamed of. I work hard for what i have and because i am hispanic they put me in the class of welfare. I will never been on welfare because why i have a sense of pride not to. When you come over here you expect people to help you well why not help us why not work for your money instead of getting off the government for free i wish i could but i guess i aint that smart |
