Just great. I drive 20k+ miles a year. Have done so for years. Never had an accident. Never had a moving violation. Drive a late model car -- I make sure it has good brakes, tires, and that the lights work (not so much because it is the law -- I kind of like being able to see and to stop when I have to). I pay a lot of $ for driver's insurance. I pay my *&%^0@#$! taxes and no one has ever given me credit for not being a terrorist, unlike Jeb, who wants to give illegal aliens credit for not being terrorists. Now I get to see my insurance skyrocket (yeah, I'm sure the illegals will buy insurance) while I dodge old cars without brakes and held together by duct tape! WHAT LAWS DO I HAVE TO BREAK SO THE GOVERNMENT WILL GIVE ME ALL KINDS OF SPECIAL TREATMENT?!

The insurance rates already rise...although, like health insurance, we don't see it directly.

Here's an example. My Mom is a tiny woman in her sixties, and lives in rural Iowa near a town with a meat packing plant. The town is over 50% illegal Mexicans by most estimates (what a shock..with the packing plant and all). Anyway, she was in a store recently, and was behind several young Mexican men in the checkout lane. They spoke at least some English to the clerk at the store. She paid for her purchases and walked out to her car, just in time to see the same Mexicans, who were parked next to her, "attempt" to back out. They bashed into the side of her car.

Upon seeing her, they exited the car. She attempted to speak to them about the accident, whereupon, they suddenly spoke NO English, and began closing in on her in an intimidating fashion.

She figured that they probably had no insurance so, being frightened, she got into her car and drove off. I wonder how many times this happens on the average day across the country.

She paid for the damage, and didn't turn it in on her insurance...but I'm sure many do.

Sorry, American citizens do not qualify for that kind of treatment. Just go to work, pay your taxes, and shut up.
