Giving amnesty (no matter how Bush packages it)gives Mexicans access to what their plan really is.. to reclaim Azlan- A Zogby International poll of May 2002 revealed the wide disparity between Mexican and American attitudes toward their common border. A majority of Mexicans polled (58%) agreed with the statement that “The territory of the United States’ Southwest rightfully belongs to Mexico,” while only 28% disagreed and 14% were unsure.. they believe that the SW should be taken back and become a part of Mexico.
Bush is contrevening the will and the security of the US in favor of the interests of a foreign power.
Jobs are being lost and wages will and are now being depressed resulting in a decline in the nation's standard of living.
The law re "family reunification" .. if we have (conservatively) 10 million that are amnestied, add another 20 million ( at the very least) to that number.
You're assuming that the illegals who cross the border have any more in mind than getting a job. There is no greater conspiracy at work here.
Anyway, the loudmouths in MeCHA and other racist Mexican organizations have no real influence or power. There IS a new rising Mexican-American elite in this country, who is doing what the Irish, Jews, Italians and Blacks have already done in the past- leveraging their ethnic ties into political power and a seat at the table. The fools in MeCHA are about as relevant as any other organization comprised of college students.
Are they? What jobs -- where is the evidence? I've never met a single person that lost a job to a Mexican even though I lived in a city with a "little" Mexico. You're stuff about Azlan is just hysterical rants of paranoia.
