If you had a community to support you and a job that pay ten times what you make would you immigrate illegally

Sounds pretty good. I hope I never have that opportunity.\nThen I would be a hypocrite. I think everyone should play by the rules.My spouse came here legally 9 yrs ago and has never spent one illegal day in this country. I think everyone should pay the price the same way. What is good for one person is good for the other. Don't reward those who disregard the laws.

because it will make being here illegally a felony, this means they will send you to jail, then deport you. This means that families will be torn apart, that people and organizations that help them will be punished too, and that millions of jobs will be abandoned ruining our ecconomy. They will also have to go back to making $10 a day.

hey i'm feelin' you pixiestix, but one thing is that i DO get gov. assistance on some things that i need and I DO work 40 hours a week to support my family and I DO PAY TAXES LIKE EVERYOTHER HARD WORKING CITIZEN... i am a citizen and i live a hard life, so when i see the minorities doing the same, i don't feel that they are just poppin' babies and living off the gov.  but of course don't get me wrong, there are those people out there.  and yes, why should we pay taxes to support illegal immigrants that are just trying to take advantage, i agree with you totally.... but for those that are working hard like you and i and are paying taxes, i think they deserve a chance to better their lives because their country can't provide the jobs, health care, and living...

When ALL ILLEGAL ALIENS Are Deported\nThe Wages Will Naturally RISE\n\nMinimum Wages And Other Wages\n\nWe All Know, By Now\nThat ILLEGAL ALIENS Falsely DEPRESS Wages\nBy Flooding The Labor Market With CHEAP Labor\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAs an example, \na young landscaper who used to make $15 an hour \n10 YEARS AGO, \ncan't get a similar job now for more than $8 an hour. \nSame heat. \nSame difficult working conditions.  \nBut with the Depressed Wage, \nAmerican Citizens who live in a country \nwhere the cost of living is miles above that of Mexico's – \ncan't afford to take such jobs.\nIt's not that he and other Americans \ndon't want to do landscaping anymore; \nit's just that in heavily trafficked ILLEGAL ALIEN environments, \nIT DOESNT PAY WELL ENOUGH ANYMORE.\n\n\n\nIn The Past Ten Years\nOur Cost Of Living Has TRIPLED\nYet\nOur Wages Have Been Cut In HALF\nDue To A Labor Market Flooded With ILLEGAL ALIENS\n\n\n\n\n\n\nYes, Its ME\nReported And Deactivated\nAnd The Points Don't Mean NOTHIN

Different world back then. No government, no immigration laws. your argument doesn't hold water. If you are here ILLEGALLY, then you should go back to your own country. If you want to come back as a LEGAL immigrant, pay taxes, learn our customs, obey our laws and try to live the American dream, you are welcome.

The secreat word here is ILLEGAL, many have gone by the rules and have came here and I greet them with open arms. Help them anyway I can. But if you are illeagal, then you have commited a crime and need to pay for it.

I don't think so. Whose gonna do the unwanted jobs then? Easy for some people to say yes but they wouldn't dare do the jobs these people do. Did you ever think that some of these people came here legally to be able to support their families but majority of them ended up being abused by their employers so they ended up illegals? I have heard a lot of stories and verified them. Some of the bad things that happened to them were done by by our fellow Americans and you talk of having electric fences? What's the matter with you? I bet your ancestors would love to hear your comments when they came here as immigrants too. If they'd have known what the future generation would be maybe they would have aborted you.

LOL ...Maybe you, your  family, and friends should get off welfare and get off your lazy a$$es and get to work. Then there would be no need to hire or work for illegal aliens.

Immigrants are a strong force here in our workforce.No body stops to think about the money they pay our government for applications for work here .My boyfriend is from Honduras ,and he pays dearly for his applicatrion fee for his TPS card.Llast year he paid 175 or his fee and 75 for someone to fill his papers out.He pays taxes on his earnings,he helps me with my bills,and also helps support his family in Honduras.

employers may be concerned that you are not a legal citizen. you should make it very clear on your aplication/resume that you are a legal citizen with date e.t.c. that you became a legal U.S. citizen(assuming you are!). \n\nIf you are not a legal citizen yet this should be the first thing you do before anything else what so ever. \n\nIn the county where I live they are getting after employers that higher illegal imigrants with heavy fines/jail time. many employers will not higher immigrants because they do not want to take the risk of highering an illegal.\n\nI am not agsinst imigrants seeking a better life but the county of which i live was starting to turn into little mexico and was draining our local economy dry with all of the financial aid they where needing.\n\ngood luck

likely yes. That's more influence than working alone could earn in my lifetime. The money would allow me to creature more influence than I could have ever dreamed if I had not taken the chance. I'd still have ten years to make a difference.

This is a very tough area. This society would die without immigration.  We thrive on the diversity it brings, the work ethic of people hungrier then we were, and the simple need for more labor considering we have a 0 growth rate.  I have a lot of respect for illegal immigrants...they come here to make a better life for themselves....they work hard....they send money home....but it's not fair to people waiting years on immigration lists to promote illegal entry with amnesty. Illegal aliens also do undermine the value of American labor.  The argument you always hear is that they take jobs no one wants.  I'm not sure I agree.....if you paid a higher wage, people would be willing to do those jobs.  Of course that would raise prices.  There are no easy answers in life....and I don't have one for this issue.  I do think the answer to limiting illegal immigration lies with employers and not the illegal aliens themselves.  They would not come here if employers weren't offering jobs.  And I certainly have NO interest in punishing people who's only crime is trying to improve their life.  I think one potential answer might be simply to take in large numbers of immigrants for the express purpose of low wage jobs.  Legally.  The current principle of immigration is that you must have specialized labor...a skill.  But industry clearly is saying we also need dish washers.  Maybe we just need to legally take in dishwashers.

It wouldn't work.  The INS does not have enough money to deport all the illegals they catch.
