You know what? There are just as many illegals working here in factories and such. They are not all picking vegetables. You think they are picking vegetables in the city?

As far as outsourcing jobs..it is WRONG! LOL..in a way they are outsourcing right in our own country when certain businesses hire illegals because they can make a bigger profit.

I understand. It is just a sad state of affairs. Chrysler will indeed be the first NA company to usher in a Chinese car - will be a Dodge if memory serves, in about two years.

Let's lay aside all of our political rhetoric and beliefs just for a few days. Let's concentrate on the love that this season is meant to instill in all of us. Worry about the war, the immigrants, the economy, the hate, on Jan 2nd. Enjoy the peace of this season, please. It could very well be yours and mine last saeson on Earth!

P.S. I did not say forget the soldiers!!

JMO--

Here, in Canada, if you have plenty of ' CASH ' you are in like flint, and these people hire others, or do the whole 16 hour stretch of operating a business. I am sure not many people in this country, as in "born in Canada" from 2 or 3 previous generations are up to that. santa

Good one aries, also there are quite a few lithuanians, africans, and Philippino nurses migrating over there.

Bottom line people, here in the US, the GOV wanted them here for decades. Paying them low wages, all false SSNs adding to the pool that they will never get, and the millions of dollars that they spend here every year, blame the GOV. There needs to be a system in place but the GOV doesn't know their asses, so they are waiting and letting states do their own thing so nothing is standard. Start something at least, a phase one plan, like securing our borders. I plan on moving to Ireland (hopefully 2008) and I plan to contribute to the system and pay my way, hopefully they won't look at me the wrong way. By the way, I am Latino, I am a US citizen, ex-military, and my family was here out west before AZ was even a state. Sometimes I am caught in the middle, but I know that me and mine belong here in the US.

Hell no they should not get any benefits. Take care of our own people first. I think the president has lost site of that. He wants to stick his nose in everybody elses business and drag us into wars. THese people have been fighting amongst themselves for centuries. What makes him think we are going to stop them? We need a health care system that works for the american's. Not let illegal immigrants take what little benefits we do get from this country. If they want better improvements in their country, let them fight for it in mexico. We lost thousands of lives in wars on american soil for what we have. Let them fight for what they want in their own countries. Snd english should be the official language of the united states. cheryl
