Dr. Jose Mendez, executive director of the Global Evangelism Task Force, believes the millions of "undocumented workers" currently living in the U.S. are a resource the country simply cannot survive without.

Absolute B.S.! This country survived and thrived for more than 200 years without millions of dirt-poor, uneducated illegals flooding into it. They are a net drain on the economy because of their overwhelming use of government services.

I believe the Heritage Foundation conducted a study on this. It was a cost to the U.S. taxpayer of $54k per year for every illegal in the country. The U.S. economy can do just fine without them.

We could have had Mexico for a state a long time ago and we chose not to because it was obvious that their 18th century feudal system, lack of education, and lack of respect for the rule of law would destroy us.

Why is it that this generation seems determined to make the very mistakes that our forefathers managed to avoid vis-a-vis Mexico and Europe?
