Pushed by the Mexican government, the Bush administration is working on a Social Security accord that would put tens of thousands of Mexicans onto the Social Security roster and send hundreds of millions of dollars in benefits south of the border.

How do you know I'm white? We have all colors in Belgium.
But yeah... I'm white... Not especially proud of it, but not feeling guilty about it either. :)

"If they paid their Social Security taxes, why shouldn't they be able to receive Social Security?"

Oh...I don't know...maybe it's because- they're in our country illegally!!! Geez! Are you really THAT stupid!?! Why don't we just declare the United States dead right now, and start flying the flag of Mexico!?!

[joesnuffy]

Cause you dont represent millions of potential votes if somebody polishes your keester enough with their snout....thats why....

The conservative vote (especially white male gun owning former military combat vet Christians) isnt really very well appreciated...or much thought of in terms of the party's future...

Sometimes it seems that some of us are expendable..not that I give a rats ass...didnt really expect that much of a change from the past...

Sure miss Ronnie Regan though.........

I knew you were white because you were not getting preferential treatment ... :)

It was the (fairly small) price to pay for moving here, and I accepted it. So why should Mexicans get a preferential treatment over me?

Because the Mexicans have more votes for sale than Belgians.

To get benefits these people will have to get valid S/S numbers.

"Pushed by the Mexican government, the Bush administration is working on a Social Security accord that would put tens of thousands of Mexicans onto the Social Security roster and send hundreds of millions of dollars in benefits south of the border."

What more has to be said? Let that statement just kind of roll around in your head for a while...

"Pushed by the Mexican government, the Bush administration is working on a Social Security accord that would put tens of thousands of Mexicans onto the Social Security roster and send hundreds of millions of dollars in benefits south of the border."

So, how does that one sit with the rest of you? Seem like a good use of our tax dollars? Make you feel good about going to work your life away paying taxes?

I do believe we are long overdue for another "taxpayer revolt". This time let's just get it over with and stop paying all taxes for good. Give up working hard, get a low wage job and just make just enough to get by. Apply for government benefits at every turn. Let's starve and bankrupt this beast!

This is actually the ONLY way, short of armed revolution to take back power.

But it won't work. The Government would simply arrest, defame, setup or kill the leaders.

boris is so subtle isn't he, lol.

So who needs leaders? Do people need someone to tell them to come in out of the rain? So why do they need someone to tell them to quit playing a losing game? I can tell you that the popular revolt is already under way. More and more people are dropping out of the system, convinced that they can only win by not playing.
