Other immigrants....
BTW, this paper left out Kyl/Cornyn's proposals. I can understand why, it is one proposal, that does not provide amnesty, but does address the problem.
They take whatever job they can and shame on the people who hire illegals.....they are the real root of the problem in my mind.
Please someone tell me why we need a single illegal immigrant, and how it benefit's the USA. I am not being sarcastic I want the "undocumented worker" fan club to give me one reason why having illegal aliens residing in the USA is a good thing. Furthermore please advise me how rewarding people who broke the law to enter helps the USA's interests
Hmm, why should there be FICA and workers comp? You have to admit that these taxes are open to massive fraud and are a burden to American business.
Why youe animus towards business.
Bayourod has some sort of blockage in his brain when it comes to the words, "immigrants" and "illegal immigrants". For some reason, poor Bayourod just can't see the difference between the two. Perhaps he just doesn't understand the definition of, or can't spell the word, "ILLEGAL".
Whats your real angle?
Own a business that you couldn't be profitable without using quasi slave labor?
IOW, those people who do such things such as grow food and build buildings are "evil".
Alone? No. But it will help fix the problem, by illustrating that there IS a problem, as well as some of the MAGNITUDE of the problem.
bayourod, im curious as to why you havent answered this post. you have hurled insults against everyone here, calling them racist, but the post below well.....

Not me. As I've posted before, I have no affinity for Mexicans or Americans of Hispanic descent.
To recognize that foreign laborers are essential right now to sustaining our economy does not mean that I am particularly fond of Hispanics.
If I had my personal preference, instead of Mexican laborers, we would have Western European laborers with blond hair and blue eyes pouring across our borders bringing their beautiful daughters. But that isn't reality. Neither is "sealing the border".
To recognize that Republicans must not unnecessarily alienate Hispanic voters with gratuitous insults if we hope to keep Hillary out of the White House is not the same as saying that I want to invite them to live in my house.

Bad analogy.....
My point was that these people are willing to work hard to get ahead whereas too many people in this country have been on the tit so long that they and their extended families can't make it without government assistance. Makes me have even less sympathy for the so called poor and disenfranchised in this country.
No, actually don't own a business.
What's your angle trying to put every barrier that you can in front of good businesses, ala hillary and teddy?
(Denny Crane: "Sometimes you can only look for answers from God and failing that... and Fox News".)
Based on my having experience with a few illegals when I worked as a laborer at the Fence Company, my opinion is that our society has become lazy by virtue of looking to these people as less than human and living mules.
Another thing, many employers and illegals share a mutual law breaking attitude and don't want things to change. Here is why?
Employer:
1. Less payroll taxes
2. No pension, IRA etc etc
3. HR issues easier to deal with.
4. Can take advantage of hourly pay scales and rules
5. No unemployment or anything like that.
Illegal:
1. No FICA deduction
2. Cash goes oversees unreported
3. Entitled to emergency room care
4. Kids get schooling without having to pay any taxes
5. No income tax deduction.
Its a great deal for both.
Hmm that is why Reagan is the first one to propose NAFTA and signed real amnesty in 86.
They are the ones that supply what illegals want, jobs. If you took away the demand for cheap labor then you'd see a huge drop in immigration.
Don't you guys ever quit?
