After all he, works real hard for the free food, housing, health care,education, Emergency Rooms, medicines, that he didn't pay for. Which costs Americans a mere $20 Billion annually.

Ita ALOT MORE THAN THAT Cherokee Rose-\n\nPAKE(Above)\n\nIllegal immigration cuts into the wages of American workers. \nAccording to Rep. Tom Tancredo (R-Colo.), who is head of the \nCongressional Immigration Reform Caucus,\n \n"Massive immigration of low-skilled, low-wage workers ... \ndepresses wage rates for people who are at the low economic end of the scale. ... \nThe overall effect will be the decline of the living standard of every American, \nor most Americans."\n\nAccording to TNRIP, the financial cost of this foreign invasion to U.S. taxpayers \nis staggering! Here is a break down of the annual costs: \n\nEducation: $22.5 billion\nBi-lingual Education: $3.3 billion\nAFDC: $2.4 billion\nSSI: $2.9 billion\nSocial Security: $24.8 billion\nHousing Assistance: $2.6 billion\nCriminal Justice: $2.6 billion\nJobs Lost by Americans: $10.8 billion\nOther Programs: $51.4 billion\nFood Stamps: $7 billion\nHealth Care: $1.4 billion\n\n http://prisonplanet.com/articles/april2006/050406_b_Immigration.htm\n\nThis Is ECONOMIC TERRORISM\n\nYes Cherokee We SHOULD Take Pity\nFor The Taxpayers Of This Nation That Are Too BLIND To SEE What Is Happening Right Under Their Noses \nAnd Too STUPID To See What Is Being Taken Out Of Their Pockets

I agree. The Government is not working FOR the people, it's working for the rich. There is no middle class. Only the rich, and the working poor.  Bush is the worst President in the history of the United States, and his record will speak for itself.

Well, what about the military?  He wil receive free training in a specialized career field, get money for college, have good insurance and housing benefits, and know that he's doing a damn fine service for the country and is respected throughout the nation.  This is, of course, provided that he is an American.  I don't really know how things work in other countries.  I'm sure I'll get flamed like heck for this answer, but its just a suggestion, and worth examining just as an option to the daily grind of civilian life.

The people that work pay for it...even in Canada.  It's called taxation.  The taxes of the working class pays for medical care so that bums who contribute nothing can also have free medical care.

Bush is no Christian, if he was he would not allow all these things to happen to our country. I believe that this man was born to destroy America. The first thing he did was to take the surplus, that everyone in this country worked so hard for, and distribute it amongs his round table friends. Thank God he was not given a chance to put our Social security dollars in the stock market, a place where his frinds could make billions more on the hard working class. Given enough time, this man would cause more damage to our country, and the world, than the evil Hitler himself.....KECK

We are spending way too much money on other countries and not enough helping our own people. There are many homeless and illiterate people in our own country who I would rather give my tax dollars to.

Let's see.  Raised taxes and cut back on spending.  Left office with a multimillon dollar surplus... it takes a REAL CONservative like president Chimp to loot the nation and drive the economy into a black hole.

We have WORKING Americans who are not even afforded these luxuries.  Paying for noncontributors and not even being able attain these services themselves is not fair. This is what is making health care, college education, etc. unattainable to working class people.  Why should we pay for them when we can't get these things ourselves?

I agree it is a bit frustrating for prisoners to receive a free college education, but we really need these people to come out of prison with a better outlook on life.  If they make their curriculum requirements having a lot of ethics and humanities classes, it would help as well.  I also can say it frustrating for people in society to not be able to afford health care while it also is available free to prisoners.  I do think the government has a lot to do with medical policies to Americans.  Their are some families, that even on low incomes still are told they make too much for assistance.  It is ridiculous.  The big dogs in Washington just need to get with it.

Money, money, money. He had lots of it to spend on TV ads and stuff.

Because Bush likes to screw the poor and help the rich

Actually, no. A lot of the reforms he tried to implement by executive order were declared a few years after they were decreed as un constitutional by the US Supreme Court. Most of the programs did work, and they were only meant to work in the short term to get the economy rolling again. Some of the things he decreed were wage and price controls, minimum wage, right to organize labor unions, etc. All the things that were implemented to help the working man.

Sadly, we are already losing it, if we haven't lost it completely.  The present American political leadership is not willing to spend any serious money on education, preferring to squander it on prisons, wars, and the futile pursuit of the War On (some) Drugs.  Local governments without rich tax bases cannot make up the shortfalls, even if they don't have spending caps imposed by ignorant legislators.

He is probably going to have to pay back his benifits and he could do some jail time if the govenment wants to pursue it.

I work in a hospital and the real truth is that YES illegal immigrants are stretching our system. Several immigrants have babies everyday at my hospital, at least 25-30 week, which is not cheap, the government pays for these hospital visits no matter what the income of that person is, Yet if an American citizen comes in for help and doesnt qualify for welfare medicaid and doesnt have private insurance, there is no help, his or her credit is reuined and they are charged for the bill whether it be $ or $200,000. Americans should be upset by this.

HE hasn't spent a dime on those things..... \n\nHE USES OUR MONEY!\n\nIts harder to trace that way.
