Why don't admit that you would rather die than oppose anything that Bush proposes?
I defy you to post one reply where I've ever put myself out as a person of virtue.
I'll wait.
It also makes it more expensive to employ them -- now they're eligible for Social Securty, minimum wage, Workmen's Comp, OSHA etc. and they can complain if they don't get it.
Sorry, ain't no free ride. What are we gonna do have these guys mow lawns to the North Pole? Right now, according to an article I came across recently,(not sure somewhere in AZ), I read that the illegal alien cost to AZ is costing legal residents approximately $700.00 per household to have these guys here. So add that amount into your cheap lawn mowing. Find out how much you are saving.
I believe that is a very conservative estimate. In California, I wouldn't be suprised if it is not costing each household more like $2500.00 per household in support to keep this cheap labor here.
So, because others want rights not given to them in the Constitution, you suggest that we now use rights prohibited by United States law?
LOL, you're just a hypocrite.
Exactomundo..Leftist in conservative clothing.
I was reply to post 235 , which said
"Thus -- the 1982 Supreme Court case has answered your jurisdiction question, and further imparted not just the "protections" of the 14th Amendment, but it provided to illegals the benefits of citizenship."
The statement that schooling is a benefit of citizenship is simply untrue, the same as calling Bushs guest worker program "amnesty" - a poster here even stated that Bush wanted to give all these workers the right to vote, a blatent lie.
The attacks on Bush in these "discussions" is what I would expect from the Democrats on AirAmerica.
Personally, I believe ALL illegals should be deported, NO illegals should receive any benefits ( excepting emergency medical ) and a guest worker program should be put in place.
"When the Court converts the right to due process, into the right to receive benefits reserved to those here lawfully, the Court has overstepped its bounds. IMHO"
IMHO also
They push leftist environmental, Margaret Samger type population control views.
They also are dishonest. Look at this graph from their "The Population-Environment Connection" page link
Note how it is presented to give a false impression of scale.
Well, the more you post, the more you show your ignorance: I'm against this very plan and said so way back in January.
I knew you couldn't; just wanted it on record.
Try it here in New York - we can't build schools fast enough. They're a good part of the reason that we had a 22% increase in property taxes.
There is such thing as immigration laws. These people are criminals by definition. Plain and simple. Enforcement of laws will simply solve the problem. Otherwise, I think you are having an off day.
Enforcement by the people assigned to do it: the Border Patrol.
I've noticed two types of people on FR who talk about jobs Americans won't do.
One type is the country club trust-funder who's apparently never worked a day of physical labor in their life. They honestly can't imagine earning money with their hands.
Then there's the business owner who has a financial stake in millions of people flooding the country. They know Americans will do the work but simply don't want to take the cut in profits to attract legal workers.
If you admit you are doing, have done or will do those types of jobs, either type will sneer and say you deserve to lose out to an illegal alien.
Wage busting clowns, the lot of them.
Obviously, the Border Patrol cannot handle the load. The Feds really don't know how many illegals are in this country. They only can estimate. We need to take all military personnel, like from Camp Pendelton, and other bases in the South West and start protecting the border. We need to use the border patrol officers on inland assignments, and start deporting them.
Anyhow that is what I would do.
"On the contrary, my house is much more affordable having been built with laborers who worked for $6 an hour rather than for $75 an hour."
I guess it's okay with you that those $6.00 per hour carpenters have to get their food, housing and medical care at the taxpayer's expense, isn't it? "Privatize the profits...socialize the costs".
Are you under the impression that just saying something on FR makes it true; if you could prove it, you would.
And if we're going to post unsubstantiated stuff, I think you are a dwarf.
Since I don't have to PROVE what I say, according to your postings, people are free to believe it.
