we treat them inhumanely

WHAT??? That statement stuck out like a sore thumb. Here in California illegal aliens get all the benefits of citizenship, and most of them are collecting welfare while their spouses work for less than Americans can, work for cash, pay few taxes. We educate their children too. They even get subsidized housing and food stamps. YOU CALL THAT INHUMANE?? Get real.

As for the homeowners, the citizens, we get to pay the bills and the higher taxes it requires to support them. Inhumane my butt.

When was the last time you walked into one of their apartments or homes? You try living 4, 6, or 8 to a room.

I don't like the drain on the healthcare system either but people that poor just can't get medical help on their own. If a guest worker system were put in place and rigidly enforced business would be forced to pay them enough to take better care of themselves. And we would pay more for everything. There are no free lunches.

We now have a false and immoral system which we are all benifiting from. Border areas are not benefiting. They are taking the hit in every way and it needs to stop. It won't stop without a system.

In this entire thread I have not advocated amnesty. I don't.
