Fanta I haven't read it.
But believe me I'm divided in 3 languages.
English, Spanish and Iranian.
Because in my work all the people are from Iran.
So you go figure.

It's still a big country. I have no problem at all with sharing the
opportunities here for happiness and prosperity. Who the heck gave
anyone here the right to close the gates? Both sides of my family came
here from Ireland in the 1890's. If you're a Native American then I
understand where you might be coming from.

The only way to stand up for either way you feel about imigrants, is to
stand up.
A person that gets a ticket and is asked to pay it, do you pay it or do
you stand up to the system and say, why should I pay this ticket when
you won't even arrest and incarcarate illegal immigrants (fleony). If
our justice system can penalize you for a misdemoner and you pay without
you questioning why a person with a felony can go without being
arrested, then you are for the immigrants to stay here. If you can stand
your ground and not pay your ticket until the system decides to comply
with the law then you are definitly for deportation. Think about it, it
is like are you going to pay the gas to go to work or boycott? Jade

Why do people keep trying to perpetuate these myths????
“illegal immigrants DO pay taxes...”
Only a small portion who aren’t working “under the table”. Considering
there are no taxes on food, the rest doesn’t add up to really that much
in the overall “big picture”.

”since they often use fake social security numbers, the taxes that they
DO pay in they are not eligible to reclaim. they won't be drawing social
security when they retire, for fear of being exposed.”
And the person they stole the number from gets the bill for the taxes on
the wages, along with the rest of the issues that come with identity
theft.

”they are damned hard workers, and a benefit to our communities...”
Not all, that is just a stereotype that is as full of holes as any
other. There are good and bad in that group just like any other.

“people damn them because they are illegal, but so are the drug-users,
aye?”
and for that to even make enough sense to be relevant, we would have to
be petitioning to have more drug users come along with the illegal
immigrants.

“Thank you Lulu. I'm also glad of being here.Without us you people won't
have:Beautiful gardens in towns and cities.All the new subdivisions and
house that are being developed.Fruit and vegetables at reasonable
prices.Clean hotel bedrooms.Etc.”
Every word of that was a lie.
And it always disgusts me that people not only do it, but then openly
admit to aiding and abetting these criminals.
“barbie, i've hired several illegals over the years...they had a social
security card, so money was sent for that number.”
I just wish INS would go through these threads and use them to file
charges against all the people who did it, along with big businesses.

Peek-a-boo, you have a drastic misconception that results from life up
North. I guess,
If you dont live with the problem blindness results, I reckon,

A few years and you'll see...
The problem is spreading, do you think these problems are figments of
peoples imagination? NOT!!!!

I understand if you dont live in a state where the illegal population
has expanded to 25% in just 10 years that you cant see the problems
first hand.
You really should look beyond you front yard though. Look here, or
Georgia, or Texas.
Its coming your way at a time yet to be determined!!!!

Four hundred thousand strong and they keep coming, drawn by the jobs
that North Carolina employers eagerly offer illegal immigrants.

As the wave of immigration continues and the benefits grow, the costs of
illegal immigration also mount and become more painful. The losers in
the United States' immigration-system breakdown are numerous. They
include:

* Taxpayers who foot the cost of educating children of illegal
immigrants.

* Hospitals that serve thousands of uninsured newcomers. They absorb
some of the cost but pass much of it along to their paying customers and
taxpayers.

* Legal blue-collar workers, whose wages are depressed by competition
from immigrants willing to work for less.

So far, however, the federal government has chosen to look the other way
-- and many businesses are glad it has.

Businesses are the biggest beneficiary of illegal immigration and are
the reason unauthorized foreigners are here in the first place.

Let's give the illegals amnesty, but since they are here illegally, they
will never have the right to vote. Is how felons are treated in this
country so it should also apply to the illegals. Get that passed and
watch how fast our politicians figure out a way to fix this mess.

I was just reading that those numbers from NC are estimated to have more
than doubled since 2004!!
Also, since a lot of them hide there is no real accurate fiqure.
Those are just the ones that answered the official census!!!
Crazy aye!
They ask them are you here illegal, and 400,000 said yes!
Wow..........
