Maybe it's because of where I live ---- many many many immigrants --- legal, illegal, and semi-legal are here on welfare programs, you see families with 6 or 7 youngs kids and their pregnant mother in the grocery stores proudly pulling out their "Lone Star" food stamp card and only 33% of the population here bothers with private insurance --- the rest get their health care at no cost to themselves. I don't even distinguish much between legal and illegal anymore. The only immigrants I have any respect for are those who work for their own living ---- I'd take a self-reliant illegal who is accessing no government program (but also not using stolen social security numbers or commiting other felony document fraud) over a legal immigrant who does.
And so you play right into the hands of the Democratic Party. Which is what they have done.
Legals who want immigration slowed down, both legal and illegal are then accused of wanting to close the door after them.
And people with your viewpoint have already ensured the blurring of the lines.
So, illegal immigration continues, and anyone addressing the issue is considered a racist for bringing it up.
Thanks a lot. You just ensured that paralysis reigns and the issue is never resolved.
