go complain to the democratic party... and while you're at it, don't forget to thank them for still having a pension
the illegals had nothing to do with the real estate troubles... that was due to speculators |

I FEEL THE SAME WAY YOU DO. TO THOSE THAT ARE PRO ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION, WHY ARE OUR SCHOOLS SO OVERCROWDED WITH NON ENGLISH SPEAKING STUDENTS, OUR EMERGENCY ROOMS CLOSING BECAUSE OF NON PAYING NON ENGLISH SPEAKING ILLEGALS,OUR PRISONS BUSTING AT THE SEAMS DUE TO THE ILLEGAL PERVERTS. ETC...................... |

We don't have a choice..
They only thing that we can do is round up all of the illegals and ship them back to the countries that they came from.
It is the federal government, that made this decision, not the Democrates or the Republicans but both. This has been going on for years. |

We're all either very stupid or we have lost our senses. Either way this life boat is ready to sink under the weight of all of the illegal immigration. |

THanks for your service to our country, Joe. Many of us honor and appreciate what you have done for us.
ANd AMEN to your sentiment about illegal alien criminals as well. These leeches take away jobs from the most vulnerable of Americans, and depress wages beyond a liveable wage. |

Think about it. Why do illegals come here? Jobs! If laws against hiring undocumented workers were enforced, there would be far less illegal aliens in the US and less drain on social services.
Who benefit? Employers who illegally hire illegals. Illegal employers pay lower wages, do not offer health insurance, do not pay workers comp, health insurance, unemployment and other payroll taxes.
The profits from hiring illegals end up in whose pockets? You guessed it. Goods produced by illegals are not any less expensive than goods produced by legal American workers.
Who pays? We the US taxpayers. When an illegal immigrant gets hurt on the job, he is not covered by workers comp? The taxpayers end up paying his hospital and medical bills. If an illegal gets sick, he not covered by health insurance. If the employer lays him off - there is no unemployment to cover the gap between jobs.
I am sick and tired of paying welfare to American business. Laws against hiring undocumented aliens must be strenghted and enforced. |

Because the Democrats are to damn "politically correct"! Thank you for your service, I hope that a Republican is elected to the white house and knows how to get the job done in protecting this country, both in war and at home! |

For the same reason we have to put up with pro-lifers, terrorists, criminals and pedophiles. The correct answer is way beyond Democrat or Republican. |

You are not the only viet vet OR American upset about the load illegals are placing on our economic situation.
I read of emergency rooms closing due to abuse by illegals.
Now there are politicians talking of giving social security to illegals. What the hell?
Take heart, Arizona has just passed laws that will punish employers who have illegal aliens employed by them. It might spread to other states. No jobs, no incentive to invade America.
I truly hope the Mexican people can change their country for the better and have the same economy we have. Then they wouldn't need to come her to have a decent standard of living.
I DON'T want them to drag ours down to their level. |

amnesty sucks
|
That's the fault of the Washington weasels!
It is amazing that they they were clueless and surprised that Americans don't like the idea of amnesty. One problem with amnesty is that we will legally have to pay for these freeloaders! |
|

because the laws already on the books to deport the illegals are not being exercised! Deport! |

Big-shot CEO:
So, if this illegal people have provided your company with FAKE documents, are they paying taxes via a fake social security number? |
|

because the democrats are buttering up to the legal mexicans for votes, and their anticipating an amnesty act. |

Thank you for fighting for this country. But why should any of us shoulder this burden? And freeloaders is an apt term but I prefer illegal aliens. Our government is supporting individual agendas instead of those that are good for American citizens. I can only say to vote for new officials and let your voice be heard by calling and emailing your state's officials and demanding a halt to this free ride the illegals are being given at our expense! |

The government turned a deaf ear to the influx of illegals. Illegals are given health care, food stamps, education at the expense of middle Americans. It's going to worse than better because their introducing more programs and yet the Democrats pork funds has been increased again. As an example of health care, I know receptionist who wonder how the illegals are able to get prenatal care, hospitalization, and post natal care. The program puts out billions of dollars out of our pockets. And, yet government does not listen to the people. We on retirement won't have that happy retirement if these shenanigans continue. |

It helps the small business contractors more than anybody else. They are protected and their friends in high places provide them with cut-rate workers and produce stuff like lettuce, hot dogs and baloney and a lot of other neat stuff. We have more stuff and can keep the ball rolling enough to support the troops in the war. the guys in the congress and white house know what is best for you. better get used to it because you will see no change after some senator or congressman is sitting in the oval office.
business as usual. more cheap labor to make stuff to charge on your 30% interest credit cards. nothing gonna change in this generation. under their thumb and just cannot change that. best to shut it out of your mind. that is just good coping skills and good mental health. don't get frustrated and worry or you will have to have meds or liquor to cope. watch some football and buy, buy buy stuff.
don't worry, be happy! |

First I have to say I am sorry about the fixed income for a Vietnam Vet. I think the country should take way better care of our active and Veterans. However your statement is incorrect. Actually most of the people who are here illegally still pay taxes. A lot of them do so through fake social security numbers, They pay social security taxes but will never get that money. Plus they pay sales taxes, no one ever goes to Macys and doesn't pay taxes because they are here illegaly |

because you and the rest of your friends voted for rich Republicans who LIKE to hire the cheap labor for their big companies. Like, Publix, Walmart, halburton and all the agricultural states that that never check their ids, or, have coyotes smuggle them over the border and holds them captive, by holding over half their wages. as little as they are in the first place. No one has a good answer. BUT if you look at who's hiring them, making it a good idea to come across without work papers, ( a green card), you have to point at the Federal government, and that blame lays soundly at the feet of the party in office for the past eight years.
The Dem's have been trying a solution to deal with them, and not lose their votes. So, you tell me how to take back our country. Until we close our boarders, like every other country in the educated world, no plan will work.
So, instead of whining on here, go to meetings, send your congressmen and senators letters, and let the candidates know you refuse to vote for someone who doesn't have a plan to protect our boarders. After that, we only need to enforce the laws already in place. |

Illegal immigrants do not cause a drag on the U.S. health care nor the education system as you contend. I would suggest you read the following for information and documentation...

you don't only pay for illegals, you also pay for freeloading white trash and poor blacks that claim they can't get a job! at least the mexicans are willing to work! they don't get any benefits and if they have fake papers to work they also pay into social security and fed taxes that they are not eligible to get back.. lol stop calling them free loaders because i've seen my neighbour pay a mexican guy $20 for loading furnitue into a truck that took about half the day! i don't call that freeloading |

Thanks for your service. So did 3 of my brothers.....2 came back.
I would rather help support an immigrant family trying to make something of themselves than our own home-grown deadbeats who sit on their butts and collect welfare because they don't want to work.
There are more of them than there are of immigrants - legal or otherwise. |

You'll notice most of these illegals are gainfully employed. I hire illegals because they're better workers than Americans, and the law clearly says I can legally hire illegals !!
The Feds passed the Immigration Reform Control Act of 1986 to supposedly stop the practice of hiring illegals. The law was just the opposite; it contained loopholes to give employers immunity from criminal prosecution for hiring illegals. Job applicants are required to furnish documents to prove their right to work in the US; but it DID NOT require employers to verify / authenticate these. This means FAKE social security cards, FAKE birth certificates, and FAKE identification cards are allowable forms of documents. So long as employers have these on file, they CAN NOT be prosecuted for hiring illegals.
These people had provided my company increased profits and productivity. The least we can do, is give them a little bit of the American dream (at tax payers' expense). |

Well, Indian govenment gives for free, Open heart and Brain and spine surgeries, in the name of social medicine.
Funds for Indian Institute of Tech and National Institute of Techs, most students receieve millions of rupees in aid, jump ships to immigrate to usa, once the course is over.
Its far worst than that. |
