“Bottom line here is that Tennessee taxpayers are, in effect, subsidizing the Pilgrim’s Pride Corporation’s labor costs. Bet none of those taxpayers ever voted in favor of that subsidy. The compassion may be flowing, but so is “other people’s money.” —3AngelaD

Thanks for the ping Tennessee Nana.

PLEASE, everybody PAY ATTENTION to Angela’s comment pasted above this. This is the bottom line.

My 82 year old mother worked and paid taxes till she was way into her 60s, and then for a brief time had TennCare to supplement her medicair. There are so many slugs, (pain pill addicts, women dropping babies without daddies, illegals, druggies, etc., all young) skimming off the system they have cut all seniors off TennCare.

This is shameful.

We need to call our state representatives.

If Pilgrim’s Pride, or any other company brings in and hires illegals, THEY need to pay for their legal costs, food, diapers, etc., when they are caught BREAKING THE LAW!!!

You nailed it. They probably also need to recruit several members as I am sure their churches are dying.

[RightWingTeen]

hey, Chattanooga, could you PLEASE send back ILLEGALS back home. Why should TAXPAYERS be forced to pay for ILLEGALS!!!???

Hispanic?

If a person, either legally in the USA or an insurgent, is called Hispanic because their heritage is from Spain or a Spanish speaking Latin(?)American country then should I of Scot-Irish heritage be called Englishic or Celticic?

I will not discuss the folk I have met with white or pinkish skin that are from South Africa but are citizens of the USA (African American?). We are Americans and are citizens of the only nation in the world with the word AMERICA in its name.

Hispanic?

Yeah..

Ya notice that “immigrants” etc was not in the title...

I just left it as it was...

“Chattanooga: New coalition raises awareness of (illegal) Hispanic needs” did not sound right...

[AuntB]

“The coalition was created “to support the Hispanic community by advocating on their behalf and raising public awareness of the gifts they bring to the social and economic well-being of our region,””

These people obviously ignore police and crime reports, don’t they? How about the 1/2 of illegal aliens who are on welfare....there’s some ‘economic’ well being for ya!

I have quit buying both Tyson and Pilgrim’s Pride chicken. Both are very cheap and are on sale weekly by me. I have instead opted to wait until Perdue goes on sale, even on sale not nearly as cheap. I will tell you this the quality of Perdue compared to the others is astonishing.

She’ll contact you then write the drivel that fits into the media template, the media action line for illegal immigration. Those are Rush Limbaugh’s terms for the media (nearly) always fitting stories into pre-determined scripts

“It’s not a matter of legality; it’s a matter of helping people who are in trouble.”

BzzzzT! Wrong - it is a matter of legality. If you're worried about helping people in trouble, try helping the actual American citizens who have lost their jobs or felt downward wage pressure due to illegals stealing their jobs. And, help on your own dime - I, and the rest of the taxpayers, are sick of carrying illegals.
