The economy was doing quite well when there were but 265,000,000 people (1996). That's 35,000,000 fewer than today's 300,000,000.

If the 12 to 20 million illegal aliens were but gently returned to their OWN COUNTRIES, we wouldn't feel the difference.

You are of course quite correct. That one really pisses me off. The other one that chaps my hide is that 'jobs Americans won't do' horsecrap.

There are no jobs Americans won't do for a decent wage. I asked someone on this thread to name me three of these mythical jobs we won't do and I still haven't heard back from him or her.

But it's kind of hard to demand a decent wage when there are 11 to 15 million illegal aliens depressing the wage market for lawful US workers. Not to mention the large number of felonious employers exploiting these people and stealing from the US Treasury by not paying into SS, Medicare, Medicaid, Unemployment Compensation Insurance pools, etc etc.

Oh well, we've got our work cut out for us now. It's time to make sure this horrible Senate bill dies in the conference committee and never again sees the light of day.
