God Bless America....

A big earthquake with the strength of 8.1 on the Richter scale has hit
Mexico. Two million Mexicans have died and over a million are injured. The country is totally ruined and the government doesn't know where to start with providing help to rebuild.

The rest of the world is in shock.

Canada is sending troopers to help the Mexican army control the riots.
Saudi Arabia is sending oil. Other Latin American countries are sending supplies. The European community (except France) is sending food and money.



The United States, not to be outdone, is sending two million replacement Mexicans.




God Bless America

I was listening to Gordon Liddy this week. He said a recent study showed 10% of Mexico's population is now here. That is a large drain on our economy.

there is no drain on our economy. having illegal immigrants is good because they provide the cheap labor neccasary to provide a functioning economy. the standard of living is very high because those studies are based on registered persons and not on illegals who provide manual and base labor for many different industries

First of all there is no such thing as illegal immigrants. If you come to America legally you immigrate. If not you are simply illegal and have violated the law.

Second of all you do not have a clue on the financial drain. Ever hear of public health. Guess where illegals go for medical attention. Guess who pays the bill...Not them.

Ever got into a car crash with an illegal. Guess who has no insurance. Guess who pays the bill...Not them.

Out of 10 million illegals if 500,000 are in jail, a reasonible guess...probably on the low side... Guess who pays the bill for their upkeep while there...Not them.

Ever ask an illegal where his money goes after he gets his check. A bare minimum stays here. They pool their money to live. A vast majority of it leaves the country to prop up Mexico.

Take a look at just who crosses the border illegally. Mexico is flushing their own toilet..Just as Castro did.

Not to be picky sarge, but dictionary.com defines immigrant as:

im·mi·grant ( P ) Pronunciation Key (m-grnt)
n.
A person who leaves one country to settle permanently in another.
A plant or animal that establishes itself in an area where it previously did not exist.

adj.
Of or relating to immigrants or the act of immigrating.

Therefore anyone who chooses to settle in America is an immigrant, whether they do it legally or not, making the term valid.


Other than that I agree with you completely.

Many are migrants. They don't plan on staying here. They just come up for the work and send the money back home to their families.

I wonder if employers would be able to up the wages of the low paying jobs and make them more palatable if they didn't have to pay the higher taxes associated with the costs of illegals.

By the way, looking up the definition of "immigrant" without including the word "illegal" gives an incorrect context.
