Why illegal Mexicans don't just go and live in Mexico, if they like it so much?

princess_29_71

I wish they would. Illegals are criminals by nature and would rather do anything that is prohibited by law. They are too lazy to do it the right way and they have no idea how to be honest. Illegals are liars and thieves and overall pieces of well...you know.

Their flag is ugly. It will never even compare to ours.

Funny double standard. I bugs me when people brag about their home countries when they live here. But consider, how fond you are of your childhood memories. How many people love Boston, but moved out to find affordable housing in Arizona or becasue of the snow. People migrate. This is life, but the placve they are at may have one benefit that they are seeking now( like a job), but home is where the heart is and most illegals are here to make a living for their family who is at home with thier heart.

Why leave when you can FREELOAD off someone else? I keep hearing the same old ridiculous excuses. Oh and we STOLE their land LMAO. The U.S didn't steal sh!t from the Mexicans.

BIGL

They are proud of their country, but because of the corruption there, the opportunities to make a living are here. To them the only thing greener here is the money. Which for them might be true, but you would think they could show a little appreciation. I would say a revolution back home should be in order, but an all out civil war in Mexico would actually not be good for the USA.

They are too lazy and greedy to fix their own country, they want it all. Doest matter to them if they take the unmoral fast way. As long as they get what they want they feel that is alright. It shows how selfish they are.

Why dont you go to Mexico and live on $10 a day, then fix their economy while you are at it. When you come back maybe you wont be such as racist *****!

Tom Da Bomb

Oh no. Not Jessica again with her copy and pasting.

They are here to take over and turn this into another part of Mexico.

Every person for illegal immigration should be forced to compensate these innocent people who have had their social security numbers and identities stolen by these illegals who invade our country with no care who they hurt. They should have to not only compensate the money lost from their social security accounts after they are zeroed out once the fraud is detected, but every last cent the victims had to pay taking time off work, every cent that went into photocopying documentation, every cent that went towards lawyers and gas driving somewhere to get this mess taken care of, and any other financial expenditure the victim had to cough up. They should also be forced to compensate the victims for the emotional hardships endured. They should have to compensate for the money and time spent trying to straighten out their credit ratings after these illegals have ruined them. They should be forced to compensate these victims for every single hardship related to what these illegals have inflicted upon these people. Currently, the system does not provide any compensation at all and a lot of people are never restored to previctimization status. Oh but these pro-illegals claim that illegal immigration is a victimless crime that hurts no one and that we are whining when we complain.

'Total purgatory' for taxpayers
Frustration can mount for victims of this kind of fraud. Eventually, the government agencies involved do catch up with the legitimate consumers; but often, not until they are looking for money. Victims can have trouble getting disability or unemployment benefits. The government doesnâ€™t try to alert victims of their victimizations, they usually find out by chance when theyâ€™ve been victimized further.
Other victims find the Internal Revenue Service on their backs, looking for payment of back taxes for wages earned by their imposters. Some see refunds held up by the confusion; others see their wages garnished.
Victims find themselves in a financial nightmare. All those imitators make a mess out of their work histories, Social Security benefits records and credit reports. Victims are haunted by bills and creditors. Victims receive threatening letters from the IRS, asking to pay taxes on money earned by these illegal Mexican colonizers. Victims are told to re-pay unemployment benefits they had received, after the government discovers they were "working" while drawing benefits when it was really these illegal Mexican invaders all along.

You think these illegals care that they are hurting innocent lives? Their loyalty is to Mexico. They proved that during one of the first rallies when they took down the American flag, hung up the Mexican flag, and then hung the American flag upside down underneath it. THAT is how they feel about America.

Then the people who want to appease them pull out the excuses about how people who are not even alive now, and haven't been for hundreds of years, 'stole' the land from the American Indians. Even American politicians are carrying out this traitorous attack on our sovereignty! If this keeps up, the United States of America will become a 3rd world country, just like Mexico! Mexico's problems are not the fault of Americans, but they are becoming our problems because the Mexicans are invading us and bringing their problems with them.

The illegals make up about 5 % of the work force. The unemployment rate is about 4.5%. Keep in mind that the unemployment rate does NOT represent everyone who is unemployed. It only counts those who are collecting unemployment. Everyone else's plight is ignored. The unemployment rate if everyone was counted would be tremendous. We do NOT have a shortage of labor, we have a large surplus. The more illegals that come in and take our jobs at minimum wage or less (often less) puts more and more Americans out of a job. Most of these Americans are never counted in the unemployment rate if they do not manage to get unemployment benefits. Unemployment benefits are hard to receive.

Illegals draw welfare by stealing people's social security numbers and identities. That means there are a lot of people being directly hurt by these people as well. Innocent people are having their credit ratings ruined, having IRS problems, and social security problems. If someone who has had their social security number stolen gets married, if either spouse dies or become disabled then they can be denied their benefits.

The illegals get welfare by stealing social security numbers and identities and using false papers. Therefore, the time limits under the Clinton welfare reform doesn't apply to them because once the time limit is up, all they have to do is get new stolen social security numbers and identities and false papers and start all over again. American citizens who draw welfare are limited to the time limits from the welfare reform and are then cut off. American citizens who fall on hard times and have to turn to welfare assistance have a harder time finding jobs that pay enough to live off of because the illegals have taken jobs and depressed the wages of those jobs still available to American citizens. Therefore, those in the lower working class are highly unlikely to ever be able to "work their way up" since the opportunities have been stolen which will entrap these people into poverty with little to no way out.

My family moved to the US before WWII. Those of my family that didn't make it over got killed by the death camps. Our family assimilated to the American culture. We didn't expect the Americans to change to suit us. The illegal immigrants from Mexico are not civilized like that.

They not only changed the National Anthem to Spanish, they changed the words. They already burn our flag and hang our flag upside down. They waved the Mexican flag during a lot of their protests. Some schools have stopped hanging the American flag and forbidden students from wearing clothes with any part of the American flag on their clothing all to keep from offending the Mexicans. It's nothing short of an attack of our country, not only by the illegal aliens, but those who seek to appease them.

I am tired of the stereotype that Americans wouldn't do the work that illegals do. Illegals do all kinds of jobs for less than minimum wage which drives the wages down for U.S. citizens. Construction jobs are an example. There are lots of illegals doing construction jobs that Americans used to do because the companies can keep more of the profits if they pay less for the workers. All that does is make companies wealthier and Americans poorer. Illegals are stealing jobs that Americans have done for years.

"Mexico is waging war on the U.S. through mass immigration illegal and legal, through the assertion of Mexican national claims over the U.S., and through the subversion of its laws and sovereignty, all having the common end of bringing the southwestern part of the U.S. under the control of the expanding Mexican nation, and of increasing Mexicoâ€™s political and cultural influence over the U.S. as a whole.

Cultural imperialism

We experience Mexicoâ€™s assault on our country incrementallyâ€”as a series of mini-crises, each of which calls forth ever-renewed debates and perhaps some tiny change of policy. Because it has been with us so long and has become part of the cultural and political air we breathe, it is hard for us to see the deep logic behind our â€œimmigration problem.â€ Focused as we are on border incursions, border enforcement, illegal alien crime, guest worker proposals, changes of government in Mexico City, and other such transient problems and eventsâ€”all of them framed by the mediaâ€™s obfuscation of whether or not illegal immigrationâ€™s costs outweigh its benefits and by the maudlin script of â€œimmigrant rightsâ€â€”we donâ€™t get the Big Picture: that the Mexican government is promoting and carrying out an attack on the United States.

Another reason we miss whatâ€™s happening is that our focus is on the immigrants as individuals. Thus our leaders talk about illegal immigrants as â€œgood dads,â€ â€œhard working folksâ€ seeking to better their lives and their familyâ€™s prospects. In fact, this is not about individual immigrants and their families, legal or illegal. It is about a great national migration, a nation of people moving into our nationâ€™s land, in order to reproduce on it their own nation and people and push ours aside.

Thus, in orchestrating this war on America, the Mexican state is representing the desires of the Mexican people as a whole.

What are these desires?

(1) Political revanchismâ€”to regain control of the territories Mexico lost to the U.S. in 1848, thus avenging themselves for the humiliations they feel they have suffered at our hands for the last century and a half;

(2) Cultural imperialismâ€”to expand the Mexican culture and the Spanish language into North America; and especially

(3) Economic parasitismâ€”to maintain and increase the flow of billions of dollars that Mexicans in the U.S. send back to their relatives at home every year, a major factor keeping the chronically troubled Mexican economy afloat and the corrupt Mexican political system cocooned in its status quo.

This is a multi-faceted situation. Many come to find work, some come for the American Dream, many come to join families, but all will be badly used by the Mexican Government who wishes to recapture America and all that America has produced for themselves.

The fact that there are so many here who have an allegiance to Mexico should be a huge red flag to Americans that we are being invaded.

And do you believe there are only 11 million illegals here.....? Try closer to 30 million. And La Raza preaches hate.....and they, Mexican Loyalists, listen.....does it sound bad to you????? Do you feel this is headed for mob rule or even bloodshed?

wb_2210

go to mexican and you will see y they dont like it

Julie

Because they are obviously jealous of what we have here and feel that we owe them and don't care about our laws (obviously since they are here illegally)

DEPORT ILLEGAL ALIENS

ENGLISH ONLY IN AMERICA

vacant

Why cook at home when you can go next door and get a smorgasbord!!

They are LAZY!! They had rather come here and live off our welfare!!

They want our welfare but they give their allegience to MEXICO!!

They should come here LEGALLY or NOT AT ALL!!

so long, pokipoki (one down) *o/* ya-ah!

Mendi8 - Why don't you invite them all to live
with you? You're so all fired ready to support 'em, DO IT ALREADY!! Tch-tch, name calling, so unlady like.

DESMOND - She said "ILLEGAL" Mexicans. She didn't say 'immigrants'. There is a BIG difference. Americans have NO problems with immigrants who enter the USA "LEGALLY".

Princess and brendameliss...
- FYI it is the 21st century now, 2006, and we NOW HAVE laws making it ILLEGAL to ENTER the USA without proper documentation.
Mexicans need to stop being such sore LOSERS!! We whooped your A$$e$ once and we'll do it again!! Even though we already PAID for OUR "Southwest" (NOT aztlan)!!

Mex-Amer. War treaty:
On February 2, 1848, The Treaty of Guadeloupe Hidalgo was signed, later to be ratified by both the U.S. and Mexican Congresses. The treaty called for the annexation of the northern portions of Mexico to the United States. In return, the U.S. agreed to pay $15 million to Mexico as compensation for the seized territory.

Jessica!!- Good GOD Woman! Can't you be just a little more 'original'? Just give the websites not the whole dam* BOOK! I agree with you but, I'M even getting tired of scrolling PAST all that to see what the next person said!! Give it rest.

I am so sick of people saying that immigrants from Mexico come over here to commit crimes and drain our economy. It simply is not true!

The VAST majority of people who come to this country come here to have a better life. And every time they pay rent or buy something, they are paying taxes and contributing to our society. How many Americans have the balls to swim to another country with nothing but the clothes on their back and start a new life, not even knowing the language? Not many.

Immigrants should get our respect. For the most part they are contributing to our economy! Instead of fighting so hard to figure out how to keep them out, we need to streamline the process to make them citizens. That way they would have a SS#, and employers would start paying them correctly and reporting their wages, resulting in more tax money going into the system.

Maybe then they would be proud of being Americans! How can they be proud now when we try so hard to keep them down??

einstein

Because the united states was mexico before americans stole it at a point of a gun and they will never forget the theft of it, or will let you.

Mexican cat

why don't you leave i'm staying

Stomp

Your spanish-english is showing.

I love to ball

Your question really doesnt make any sense. They come here illegally to get away from their bad lives in Mexico.

Gothic_Gurl

Well,let me tell you something,honey...If your referring about all the immigrants,there not all Mexicans!
And they don't go to their country because they don't have the same opportunities that they have here in their countries...And U need to open a history book cuzz we all have generations!
*DIDN'T YOU KNOW WHEN MEXICO WAS HALF OF THE USA!
*DIDN'T KNOW ALMOST ALL OF THE SOUTH OF THE USA NOW WAS SPANISH TERRETORY!
*OR WHEN THEY WERE ONLY 6 CONTINENTS IN THE WORLD OR FIVE!I
Honey....before Mexico became half of the USA some of your generations could even haved been Mexican and you don't even know it or probably you could of been part Spanish....or the other territories that were the USA years ago .SO...WE ALL ARE IMMIGRANTS DOESN'T MATTER HOW HISTORY OF THE USA CHANGES....SO YOUR AN IMMIGRANT LIKE IT OR NOT,HONEY!

Pokieâ„¢ Obama / Biden 08

why do you keep repeating the same question every single day???
it's really ridiculous i mean i thought for a while that this forum was for intellectual people to discuss issues in a civilized manner.
but all i see is a bunch of ignorant immature kids!!!
i'm done participating in this stupid board.

Proud American you sure have a lot of issues.

You always post the most insulting questions, do you have that much of an inferiority complex that it makes you feel better bashing other people?
