demanding Americans hand you everything

That's not the case and you know it. The vast, vast majority of Mexicans who come here illegally do so for Agricultural jobs that pay very poorly and are very hard physically. The only thing they are "handed" are poor wages for long hours under the table. We need to fix this problem, not have a false vision that the illegal immigrants who come here lounge about and get welfare checks.

Not around here they don't. You'll find MANY more sitting around the housing projects than in the farm lands left. American farmland has been shrinking --- we did not add 20 million farm worker jobs in the past few years. 35% of the Mexican immigrants live on welfare programs.
