"but melting pot has always changed and remade itself when it absorbed large influxes of immigrants,"
I suggest you re-read the article. There is no more melting going on the pot. I live in Hudson County, New Jersey and oftentimes here it is like you are not in America at all, rather in some bizarre bazzar of the entire third world. Everwhere and with everything Spanish is offered as an alternative language of communication. Bush won't even propose something as simple as an end to bi-lingual education, I'm sure.
This is like Israel and the Palis, Israel must give so the Palis can take, and nothing is asked of them in return. They lied to us in '86 with the last amnesty and this is nothing but another lie. I'm not saying it's intended as a lie, just that it will turn out to be unworkable, unenforceable, and in the end, untrue.
There should have been an IMMEDIATE moratorium on Sept. 12th, 2001. If it were JUST the mexicans, that would be one thing, but you know it is going to be millions of muslims as well, who have already demonstrated their loyalty and love of America.
And the social security thing is OUT OF THE QUESTION!

And the social security thing is OUT OF THE QUESTION! This is what erks me the most out of it all. I believe %8 to %10 of my paycheck goes for the SS tax. This is my money basically being pissed away by current and future recipients of SS. I can't help but wonder that all of the "moderate and compassionate" FReeple regarding this issue are already "getting theirs".
