Voters: Illegal immigration is killing the economy
Conservative Examiner ^ | 3/3/10 | Robert Moon

Posted on 03/03/2010 11:28:15 AM PST by aquapub

According to a new poll by Rasmussen, a staggering 67% of voters now reject illegal immigration, seeing it as a major, needless strain on the economy in the middle of a severe recession.

I was stunned the last time I went over there. California used to be so beautiful and now it’s like entering a foreign country. I don’t think those who live there realize just how much it has changed. Arizona is getting to be the same.

If you Google: *14 reasons to deport the illegal aliens* you can find a link to post. FB wouldn’t let me post it *as is* due to too many charactors.

White shouldn’t do any better. He turned Houston into a sanctuary city.

Thanks for the tip, but I just created a “note” on FB. Notes can be shared on other FB profiles but just clicking share. Good stuff for sure.

I lived in California from 1976(when it was still Reagan Country) until 2006. I lived in Malibu, with an ocean view for the last 20. I saw California go from paradise to a third world hell hole. The minute I got on I 10 in Santa Monica, I was in Mexico. Damned sad to watch. I got to the point I couldn’t bear to watch it disintegrate any longer.

And Juan McCain and Arizona is a great place to start eliminating the amnesty pushers


100000% agree. The first start is to remove Juan McAmnesty from office.

Need to support JD Hayworth to the tee....anyone supporting Juan McAmnesty in the Arizona GOP primary is just supporting illegal aliens and illegal alien amnesty.

Illegal Alien amnesty is Anti-American Bigotry

I still go over there a couple of times a year. The countryside is still breathtaking, but you are right, the cities have that worn dirty look to them, and the once beautiful, perfectly maintained highways look shabby and run down. Ah for the days of Reagan and The Duke.

It’s funny how the Libs made fun of Bush but won’t pick on Obama for saying he’s been to all 57 states!

Another California FReeper posted.../

“Remember California in the 80’s when Regan was President, and Bob Hope, and Johnny Cash?

Now Reagan is dead, we have a communist in the White House, and we have no hope and no cash”

“Congress won’t do anything because so many illegals with fake green cards are paying into Social Security without the prospect of getting any back”

That’s one of their excuses, but not a valid one. Illegal aliens collect much more on earned income credit than they pay in taxes. They collect SSI and never paid into it. California gives OLD illegal aliens CASH along with their SSI and it pays more than I’ll ever see out of Social security.

“The Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) is the largest anti-poverty program in the United States - and the most illegal-immigrant friendly,”

http://www.docstoc.com/docs/5404232/The-Earned-Income-Tax-Credit-and-Illegal-Immigration

BTW, don’t forget the Social Security Totalization agreement the Bush Admin signed with Mexico to provide illegal aliens (even after they go home) with SS benefits..

They take 4 times what they give.

The trouble is that the US has been killing off future American taxpayers in abortion facilities across the US. Those who favor compassion for illegals do so because the see it as a way of resuscitating the waning “contributions” to the social security “trust fund” ... they need to kick the can down the road just a little longer.

This argument is so spurious as to be bull$hit. People overseas who are educated, speak english and have no propensity for violence are dying to come here. We don’t need the vermin that even Mexico doesn’t want.

A FReeper, American in Tokyo, posted a possible solution on a thread last evening: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/2462936/posts?page=197#197 American in Tokyo post 197 3/2
Sarah Palin, or any other ‘target’ representative, could be presented with this scenario! ( His suggestion which I think is strong, did not get a lot of attention maybe because of the ongoing adulation on the thread...)
