I have no problem with immigration. We're all immigrants. Our ancestors were. The U.S. was founded on immigration.

The Statue of liberty use to be a symbol of something better. "Give us your tired, your poor, your starving masses yearning to breathe free".
Now it reads "No Vacancy".

The problem isn't the Latino population coming in across the border. It's the illegal population coming in across the border.

I'm no fan of illegals, but I wouldn't take it as far as those guys from Arizona a few years ago. 6 men were convicted of killing over 150 illegal immigrants and dumping their bodies in a landfill.

The U.S. is so concerned with being democracy to the Middle East. Why don't we help the country to the south of us. Give Mexicans a clean Mexico. The larger cities are the only cities with a clean source of water, free of bacteria and disease. And we have the technology to filter it. Why not help Mexico? Then all these illegals wouldnt have to come here and ruin our economy. Yes illegal immigrants are the main reason out economy is f**ked. And our dumb@$$ president wants to give illegals citizenship. I don't think so! Just help out their country, they'll leave. Or if you wanna be a tyrant about, let's invade their country, fix it up, and tell them they can't have it back.

-When Emma Lazerus wrote the New Colossus poem on the Statue of Liberty, she did not mean:

Give us your uneducated, unskilled poor looking for free education.

Your huddled masses yearning to collect welfare.

Your wretched refuse, sick and in need of free health care.

Send these homeless and we will provide free housing for all.



----------It's a poem, not an entitlement program!



Our forefathers were grateful for the opportunity to come to America. They came here through Ellis Island LEGALLY, worked hard, paid income taxes, Learned English, Became Citizens and participated in communities. They contributed greatly to the growth of the USA ...all without the help of welfare, food stamps and section 8 housing.



Welcome to the NEW immigrant:

They want to BE in America, NOT BE AMERICANs.

Defeating illegal immigration would be very easy to do. Make e-Verify mandatory and punish anybody who employs an illegal worker severely. Without jobs and means to support themselves and their families, illegal aliens would leave the US on their own within a month or two.



The point is, the people who control our government, the almighty corporations, have no interest in this. Since they can't employ legal workers for slave money, they need illegal ones. Since these corporations also finance our politicians' campaigns, no politician will propose such a law. And if one dared to do that, a scandal would quickly surface in one of the corporate-owned media and the politician would be replaced with one that's more loyal to the corporations.



The one major move to a solution is to get corporate money out of politics.

First build the wall

Second hefty fine for anyone who hires an illegal

Third prison time for anyone who uses fake SS/ID to obtain employment

Businesses and companies need to stop hiring them at the sub wages they can get by with.

Nothing it's going to happen whether you like it or not, as long as the grass is greener on the other side.
