Our country would be far worse off if immigrants were thrown out. Our economy would falter.

One example that would hit him quickly is that Mom would have nobody at home to watch the kids while she goes to work. Big problem there.

Very clinton-like of you to leave out the word “ILLEGAL”.

You forgot the sarcasm tag on that.

My point to this post is that you can't have an honest discussion about anything unless you're going to discuss the pros and cons of any issue. This article is nothing more than a pro illegal immigration hit piece. I was always under the impression that journalism was supposed to take an objective observation of an issue and let the reader make their own judgments. How can a reader do this when the author only gives you one side of the story?

Hello, we’re talking illegals, not legals.

Another example would be that I would have to start mowing my own lawn again. Also, I would have to be my own rag-man and wash my own car again. But, on the other hand, if this should accidentally be handle right, those Americans who have been feeding at the public trough could be informed that the ride is over and they could take these jobs - or not eat. Imagine that... Naw, never happen...

Imagine how cheap hospital care might become if they were not passing on to us the cost of illegal alien walk-ins who claim to be unable to pay.

Imagine how safe the roads would be if hoards of drunk illegal aliens were not driving them every night.

Imagine how simple dealing with government agencies would be if they did not have to deal with illegal aliens' language barriers.

Imagine how responsive our representation might be if they cared more about addressing our needs rather than the wants of illegal aliens who are basically just here for the cash.

Imagine lower taxes with fewer indigents bilking the welfare state.

Imagine cheaper car insurance without having to cover for so many uninsured drivers.

Imagine how much cleaner the air would be without illegal aliens' jalopies that the DMV is unwilling to enforce emission standards on.

Imagine a few less gang-bangers and their activities.

Could mowing your own grass be that bad?
