Hi,

On a talk show recently a caller said the illegals come here for a better life.  What no one wants to mention is that studies have shown that 60% of them end up on our welfare system and put a huge burden on the health care system, not to mention the cost of housing many of them in prisoners.

At the same time Acorn has taught something like another 10% or so how to work with phony social security numbers, move to three or four jobs per year, then actually file US tax returns.  Seems if one is in a low enough bracket, the government will send you a refund each year that is more than what was withheld from your paycheck so they will get 3-4 of those checks.  To many that is indeed a better life.....on at the cost of the taxpayers both in AZ and around the country when it comes to the tax refunds.

I do not understand what part of "illegal" people fail to understand.  I spoke with a Greek immigrant Friday who is just as upset as the folks in AZ.  He feels he played by the rules, applied for citizenship, works hard and pays his taxes, leaned the language and all he asked for is a chance.....not a handout. 

Apparently the federal government, or some in the government anyway, seem to ignore the need to secure the border, ignore the immigration rules, ignore the enforcement of the laws penalizing employers, for their own political gain.  Those laws served our country well for over 150 years.  Now it seems that certain politicians would much prefer to exploit the illegals, and ignore the law for their own political gain.

regards,

There are so many problems with the whole mess its impossible to place into a post.  Yet let me break it down for you like this.

For my wife her K1 marriage visa was about $300
Her work permit was about $100 to 150 (not sure about the exact amount)
Her green card was about $300
Biometrics for green card about $85

Now up to this point my wife has been working a professional job, paying taxes and she has fewer rights than these asshole illegals... top it off check this out.

Fees for filing citizenship plus biometric fees $700 USD.

Now this only accounts how much we had to pay, not how much time was lost in work or the hassle of them losing paperwork and shuffling us around to places that we didnt even need to go to.

So in short, if these bastards can just walk their damn ass across the boarder for a "better life"... I want my damn money back for starters!  Then I want all tax money I have paid into the government during my lifetime plus what my wife has paid in because you know for damn sure these illegal assholes are not paying anything in taxes. 

If the government cannot do that, then ship them the hell back to Mexico or wherever they came from.  You pay to play in our system and the last thing we need are more friggin leaches feeding off of my hard earned cash while they try to take jobs away from us by working under the table.

If there was ever an issue that would make me lose my mind and make me want to grab my gun... this is it.

Your exactly. The legal immigrants are the ones most upset, for good reason. This is a real slap in the face to them.

The problem is they want the free ride not have to do anything to get it
Good girls are bad girls that never get caught.

Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it, misdiagnosing it and then misapplying the wrong remedies.
