Sweet.

Did you see this? All our FROBL's have been asked this question:
How many illegals will you allow in this country before you will say enough?? We've never gotten an answer.




20 MILLION ILLEGAL ALIENS?
By Michelle Malkin   ·   January 03, 2005 11:02 AM

Barron's has an important lead article out today on "the underground economy" (password required). According to Robert Justich, a senior managing director at Bear Stearns Asset Management in New York, current estimates of the illegal alien population (most news articles cite the old 8 to 13 million figure) are too low. He puts the figure at 18 million to 20 million.

The article's author, Jim McTague, notes some devastating consequences of the failure to enforce our immigration laws--and he does so with a bluntness that is unusual for the usually open-borders-friendly business press: ---snip---

Who are you to say that all immigrants are lazy bums who come here to get on welfare? They aren't even eligible for welfare.

Not being eligible for welfare doesn't prevent a person from receiving welfare. The reason is that people who apply for welfare aren't asked if they're Americans, or even if they're in the U.S. legally. If you want to find this out for yourself, go down to any welfare office in just about any city and you'll probably find that most of the applicants aren't U.S. citizens, and many of them won't even be legal immigrants. Illegal aliens know how to take advantage of the system, and how to rip off the American taxpayer.

You don't have a right to a job. If an employer can find someone to do the job cheaper and better than you can then tough sh*t.

That's fine as long as the employer doesn't violate any laws when hiring the person to do the job cheaper and better. If the employer hires an illegal alien worker to do the job, the employer will have violated federal immigration laws.

American kids can't even read let alone make change and show up to work on time. Mexican labour is the foundation of this country and you people who whine about it are living in a fantasy.

Knock off the American bashing, doofus. By the way, American labor is the foundation of this country because the majority of workers are Americans.

"No you sound like a Democrat, bashing multi-national corporations and all."

If a mega-corporation has no more loyalty to this Republic and considers itself to be a 'global citizen', I would prefer to do far worse to it than merely 'bash' it. I would like to see it stripped of its assets in the US and see them put up for bid.

We dont need these soulless, nationless entities robbing us of our wealth, wealth built by men far better than they.

We are deluding ourselves that these unAmerican corporations ( a small minority of corporations) havbe any love or concern for America's interest.

And we should deal with them on that basis.

"Guest workers and illegal laborers have nothing do do with security; and they contribute to the well being of this cpuntry."

I honestly don't remember one true statement ever being posted by you.
