BALONEY! We'll survive alot better without the illegals draining all of our human resources that subsidize all that "cheap labor." Not to mention that REAL CITIZENS need the jobs.

Agree with you. If only our leaders saw things the same way you and I do this country would be in great shape.

Why are you limiting your compassion to medical care? I'm sure that we could find a few unfortunates, somewhere in the world, who are in need of education and possibly even some cash.

Uh huh. As a matter of fact they're talking about extending our generosity here in California, which according to the Little Hoover Commission, has no limits.

I will likely get flamed for making this comment, but most of the jobs that the illegals do are jobs that would fit young men just out of high school very well. However with our society raising a bunch of candy a**ed,couch potatoes that would rather live off of mom & dad, the only people that take the jobs that require real work are the illegals that will bust their butts for the eight or nine bucks an hour they hope to get paid. Don't get me wrong I don't believe they should get handouts but they do a lot of the jobs that no one else wants.

Point granted. I realize most of them come here in search of a better life and perhaps our tax dollars would better be used to pay them to stay in Mexico. Now there's a use to these handouts I wouldn't mind.

I have had that same idea for some time, pay them to stay put. But do you really think the Mexican government would let the people have any of the money?

No.

In New York we have an enlightened government headed by a progressive Republican, George Pataki. The state is now sponsoring ads that medical care and food are available regardless of immigration status. I'm sure that the good taxpayers have no objection to paying for such benefits to our newest and most vulnerable citizens residents.

If only all our problems could be solved so easily. You're right I don't think it will happen and it will just go on getting worse.

Why bother becoming a citizen? You're going to get American government benefits and services any way. Only suckers will become American citizens.

They've been paying taxes and they haven't been getting any benefit out of it. Oh ok...then why doesn't eveyrone get free dialysis? About the only "benefit" I get from paying taxes is nice, killer, kick ass military. The roads in MI suck, K-12 education is trying to turn boys into girls, Harvard or MSU ain't free, the IRS is out of control and TANSTAAFL...how can a person be SO STUPID???

Yes, John McCain was a man of principle, he never did ANYTHING just to get votes. Yeah, that's the ticket.

Like his CFR. Now the difference is they're pocketing money behind the curtain instead of out in the open. And politicians wonder why people don't take anything they say seriously.

I always thought that was it, imperialist Americans! Like my husband who works his butt off every day, it is HIS fault that poor countries are so poor, and he should have to pay most of his earnings into the global welfare state. We owe it to the leaches of the world. He went to college, got a degree, and works his tail off every day as a chemical engineer. Americans are so evil....

My 21 year old son works at Target and goes to college. He hates his job! He has to go round up carts in the summer heat, all through the HOT parking lot. Sure day laborers could do the work. Sure he hates the job. But this is the kind of job, as you said, that young guys with high school education SHOULD be doing, rather than sitting around on the sofa all summer! And I tell him he has to have a job he HATES so he will have incentive to grad. from college with a degree in something he LIKES!

I watched O'Reilly last night. The only thing I can say is I'm glad he keeps pushing and pushing for control of our borders!

Don't forget the houses Jorge wants to give them too!

Living up to your moniker I see Mr. Sarcasm. We can use market terminology to describe what we have now because it also deals with mass psychology. We are in a frothy market top at the peak of globalist hysteria and myself I would look for the events to begin short selling all this "We are all our brothers keepers" mania. If this open borders we are the world multiculturalism crap ain't mass hysteria or mass popular delusion then soccer ain't boring.

In addition to the states you listed, Florida (where I live)has vast numbers of illegal Mexicans. My wife works in a dialysis clinic that provides dialysis for an illegal Mexican.
