That is the real issue. I think they are trying to shove this on us when the economy is doing well and everyone is fat and happy. Wait until we have a recession. My how things will change. I remember in the early 80s when people in Ohio were happy to get jobs at Pizza Hut. American people will work rather than take freebees off the govt.

My daughter is 16, does not have to work, but works at a fast food restaurant because she is industrious and has a good work ethic. She works with other nice kids who are equally hardworking. Saying that we need illegals to do the jobs that Americans won’t do is an insult to my kid.

It is going to get nasty when the economy goes into a downswing. Some people seem to believe that the good times will continue on forever. The entitlement programs are a loomong train wreck with over $60 trillion in unfunded liabilities. You can look to increased taxes to keep them afloat and this will occur within the next few years.

Although I don't believe that immigration, legal and illegal, should be a partisan issue, I believe it can be a winning issue for the Reps as long as they stay on the right side of the issue. No matter what kind of spin the elites try to put on this issue, it is coming down to whom do you believe, the politicians or your own lyin' eyes? Grassroots organizations are springing up all over the country to fight back. More and more people are being affected personally as the problem metastasizes all over the country.

Every once in a while I walk into a fast food restaurant or a dry cleaners or somet place like that and I see young people like your daughter and her friends and it is always a pleasant experience. They make me proud and give me hope.
