Your post is very informative, thank you. I have nothing against any race of people, as you suggest I might. That's not it at all. What I resent is the fact that our own government is allowing poverty and ignorance to walk in, against all our existing laws, and American taxpayers are expected to support the whole mess.

I don't believe that illegal aliens should be supported with free medical care, schooling, welfare, food stamps, housing, etc. This is not our responsibility. Our government is being dishonest in allowing virtually open borders with a wink and a nod, caving in to employers who want slave labor without providing medical care, and leaving it to us to pay for. There are many people who are having trouble supporting their own families. Why should they support illegal aliens and their families?

If they're going to allow them to continue to invade, we should not have to pay for their free ride here in the USA.

some might argue that these costs you mention are a consequence of the deficit american birthrate. since we didn't have enough children, then we are paying others to have children for us.

do you honestly believe that not educating children who live here would be in our best interests? or, not giving pre-natal care to mothers? if a mexican kid couldn't count to 10, then how would he work in a carl's jr and serve you burgers? then, the crime rate would really go up!

i doubt that immigrant crime is any higher than our own native born crime, say, for example, in south-central los angeles. a couple of weeks ago i was in the moreno valley. i walked into an albertson's supermarket and the wells fargo bank had 2"'s of plastic separating the customers and bankrobbers from the employees. having lived in torrance, long beach, etc. that indicated that black males lived near by.

people are people, and wherever you have people you have crime.

there are a lot of hypocrisies concerning illegals. take for example, last week the san diego restaurant owner that called into the john and ken show on radio kfi, am 600. he was very angry at them for attacking governor grey davis and his revised state budget. he made no sense, until his last moments on the program. and then, the cause of his anger was revealed:

he did not want to pay the health care costs of his restaurant employees!!!

meanwhile, our own john and ken who rant and rave daily about illegals, admitted that one of them has a nanny!!! now, where do you think the nanny came from? from mexico or from a family recently over the border from mexico. i almost drove off the road i was laughing so hard!!!

people want it both ways. cheap labor and a lily white, judeo-christian culture.

so, in other words, what is happening is that people like this owner of a restaurant are passing on their expenses onto you and me, the american taxpayer.

instead of ranting and raving about illegals, why don't you

>>>DO<<<

something? -- like demand of your elected representatives that the costs of health care be borne by those who benefit from cheap labor.
