“Regarding illegal immigration, the immigrants do not come here for welfare. As we all know, they come here for jobs. These are the jobs we continually hear “Americans won’t take.” And why won’t Americans take these low paying and perhaps socially demeaning jobs? Because welfare pays them not to work!”
I grew up in a small farming community with a large black population and HIGH unemployment, approaching 20% at times. During harvest, Mexicans came to do the picking. Your post explains why.
L98Fiero,If some of us complaint about illegal aliens then we’re called racist.But the facts are that illegal aliens do come here illegally and get jobs with stolen Social Security numbers.They then sent 25 billion dollars a year back to Mexico, at the same time holding out their hand for public assistance. It costs the American tax payer around 45 billion dollars a year to pay for their Free medical care,Rent assistance,Food stamps,WIC, Translators for their children in our public schools and Free lunches.All free because their Anchor babies are American citizens! American cities along the border provide free emergency medical care for Mexican citizens, and what do the pregnant Mexican women do in return? They come across the border to have those Anchor babies ( American Citizens)!How about Elvira Arellano and her child,she was deported came back,had the child and return to work with a stolen Social Security number,she also had been in our country for 10 years,but had to have a translator at her news conference! Earlier this year illegal aliens demonstrated in the streets of our cities demanding amnesty by flying the American flag upside down below the Mexican flag and carrying signs saying “this land is ours Gringo” I would ask the supporters of illegal aliens what do you tell the millions of immigrants waiting in other countries that want to come here legally? Just because we share a common border that they can wade across to get here,does not give them the automatic right to American Citizenship Its worth more than that! “
