Illegal Aliens have a stronger Union: The Democrat Party.

I vote Repub, but sadly both parties only pay lipservice to us voters. I no longer consider Bush to be a Republican as he has outspent *ANY* "spend-o-crat" in history. He has vetoed NO spending bill.

Problem is that our "representatives" and I use that term loosely are upper class people who enjoy the benefits of these undocumented workers. It is the working class that pays for the social services of these people (which the ones employing them should be paying) and in the end suffer from wage competition. Working class people would be better off (in some situations) renouncing their U.S. citizenship but still work here, just like the illegals.

Americans scoff at the idea of National Healthcare coverage, yet these illegal workers show that there already is a system in place. It is the taxpayer and employers who offer healthcare coverage that pick up the tab.

15 million undocumented, unscreened people living here is HUGE problem.

HEY, I just want you guys to know, I'm ready to go on strike. Better pay, more equality, longer hours, hotters stewardesses, all those things worth striking for. Even a unilateral one (1) day work stoppage. What say we stop on Monday, May1. Probably to short a notice.
Pick a day. I'm there.
 
For your consideration

>>I also hope all employers who are employing illegal immigrants lock them out until they can prove they are here in compliance with U. S. immigration laws.<<

What possible motivation would they have to do that, friend? The crooked employers who employ illegal aliens depend on the illegals to increase their profit margins. They are probably negotiating (perhaps "begging" would be a better word) through their Spanish interpreters with their illegals right now in an effort to get them to work, instead of walk out.

>>Congress really needs to get busy and pass laws making it a criminal offense to employ illegal aliens<<

Nothing personal to the poster, but this is the kind of ignorance that is killing our Country by degrees. It is already a crime to employ an illegal alien. You see, the problem is that the Executive Branch of the Federal Government is violating their oath of office, in which the swore to enforce the laws of the land.

In short, we don't need any more laws against illegal immigration; the Executive has absolutely failed to enforce existing laws. This applies to not only the Bush II administration, but every administration, all the way back to Reagan's...and even before.

This could be considered an impeachable offense. Perhaps the threat of impeachment by the conservative wing of the Republicans in Congress, which would give the Democrats who are in favor of impeachment enough votes to get it done, would finally get the attention of George W. Bush. God knows, nothing else has thus far. He continues to fail in his sworn duty, while the Country is slowly burning.

Folks, we need to get smarter concerning our laws, and the real consequences to our economy of having illegal aliens displace American workers, enabled by the crooked employers who hire them.

We are selling out our future for cheap lettuce. It has to stop. If not, this problem will destroy the United States as we know it.
 
Well i wasnt really trying to debate the immigrant thing here but since it has evolved into that I will join in. Those of you that want the illegal immigrants out, are you willing to pay 10 bucks for a pound of tomatoes? Personally I am and try, not always able, but try to buy stuff that is better quality and made in countries that do not systematically take advantage of the labor force. Does this mean I go seek out a grocery store that has $10 tomatoes? No, but I try to find quality tools, clothing (I will not step foot in a Walmart) etc. This country has larger problems than some illegal immigrants trying to get a better quality of life. I think that this whole debate is like the gay marriage thing a couple of years ago...just a way to get people all fired to go to the polls and vote in more crooked republicans.

spelling not my fault
