- IF YOU CROSS THE VENEZUELAN BORDER ILLEGALLY, YOU WILL BE BRANDED A SPY AND YOUR FATE WILL BE SEALED.

- IF YOU CROSS THE CUBAN BORDER ILLEGALLY, YOU WILL BE THROWN INTO POLITICAL PRISON TO ROT.

- IF YOU CROSS THE U.S. BORDER ILLEGALLY, YOU GET................................
1 - A JOB
2 - A DRIVERS LICENSE,
3 - SOCIAL SECURITY CARD,
4 - WELFARE FOR YOU AND YOUR CHILDREN,
5 - FOOD STAMPS,
6 - CREDIT CARDS,
7 - SUBSIDIZED RENT OR A LOAN TO BUY A HOUSE AND/OR A BUSINESS,

I agree wholeheartedly. It doesn't matter who you are, what color, what race, what nationality or what religion.

What I do agree with is "what it it about the word ILLEGAL that nobody seems to understand?"

Everyone of any color, nationality, gender, religion, etc is welcome to the USA if they come here legally. All others - go home now. You are not welcome here, and hopefully those who live here, both born Americans and those to came here legally, will find a way to stop you and send you home.

Hardly. The point is that thousands upon thousands of illegal immigrants come to the US every year and start tapping into the vast array of benefits that many US citizens are too proud to take themselves. We, the taxpayers, are stuck with the bill, and our esteemed Executive branch of government never seems to want to do anything to stem the tide. We, the taxpayers, are seen as a never-ending supply of financing, while the illegal immigrants are seen by our esteemed Executive branch as simply potential illegal votes.

Not that hard to understand.

No, Poli, None of us want to live anywhere than where we are, the USA. What we are saying is that all peoples of any color, race, religion, nationality, are welcome to immigrate here, if they come in legally.

What we do not want to do is pay through our tax dollars to support those who choose to enter this country illegally for their housing, food, medical care, education and on and on, while they pay nothing for those same services.

I don't care who they are or where they came from. If they came into this country legally, I will work to help and support them until they can assimilate into the country and support themselves.

The illegals - the only finger I will lift to help is to help them to cross back over their boarders to their home countries.

Ya know, I always thought that we should, say about once a month, line all the illegals up at a given airport. There are , say 5-6 jets waiting at different gates. The jet they get deported on is by lottery system. You draw jet number three, that's the jet you get deported on. The fact your from Ecuador and the jet is going to Cuba is irrelevant. Adios, amigo. Tell your new country we said "HI".

just food for thought. perhaps we could tax the legal immigrants on the revenue from their motels an 7/11s. nothing more than i would get taxed. we'll make it even. could also stop the grants for them start a business.

i think things will get so far with shit like this till our country collapses. then we'll just have to rebuild from the bottom up with a simpler form of government.

Tons-o-cash there with no regard for what it does to the rest of the country. It's one of those things that neither party has dared deal with. A pretty thing, all that money and those lovely votes.

Ya know, back in OLDEN times (the 1700s to be exact) WE didn't like the way things were going in OUR country (or rather our FOREFATHERS didn't - I really wasn't around) so we took matters in our own hands and DID something to change things. We didn't go looking for another country to INVADE and get freebies...

If these illegals are so unhappy in their own countries - why don't they just buck up to the system and DO SOMETHING to help themselves like we did and make their country worth living in? Then maybe they can start helping all the people of the world and give us a break!

All are true - just a few highlights.....

#2 & #3 can be acquired but by illegal means. Have to "buy" a social security number. Not hard to do, a lot of store-fronts in Vegas sell them for about $1,500.00 quietly.

#8 true. Bilingual teachers are hired on a priority basis now. Don't get me started on being tired of pushing "1" for English. grrrrrrrrr

#9 is definitely true. Free for them, bleeding our county hospital to death for us tax-paying U.S. citizens.

I'm getting real tired of having to search for the English section of operators manuals and the like. It's not English that should be the hard to find section.

I'm just terrible aren't I?

Whoa. Yes they did. Many times over.

Native Americans. Native Hawaiians. Native Samoans, etc.. Key word being "Native". These people and their land were invaded & stolen for the benefit of the "forefathers".

I think U.S. citizens, in their zealotry over illegal aliens, should remember how this country came into existence, and not get too much into chest pounding on how it was done "properly" by the forefathers.
