That is what the First Nations thought when the pilgrims moved in. Damn these immigrants. What would the NBA be without Kobe, Shaquile, Jordan, Yao Ming, Stoyakovich, Nash, and a lot more? (They are not native americans) What about our NHL Hockey stars? Our olympic team? What would have happened to New York during 911 if it were not for an immigrant named Julianni?\n\nDid you know that if any foreign nations people took out their investments from our banking system, our economy would collapse? Ex. Japan, China and Saudi Arabia as examples. \n\nTo answer your question, maybe it is the sum total of all these nationalities that make our nation great.

The U.S. has no requirement that citizens stay in the country.  That's one of our freedoms.

NOT SO MUCH A THREAT.,BUT AS A BURDEN THAT MIGHT BE MORE THAN THE AMERICAN SYSTEM COULD SUSTAIN AND MORE THAN THE MAJORITY OF U.S. CITIZENS WANT TO CARRY ie THE COST IN EDU. AND SOCIAL SERVICES. WHEN THEY COME IN TO AMERICA LEGAL THEY BRING PART OF THE GREATNESS THAT ALL IMMIGRANTS THAT CAME HERE BROUGHT!..GREAT QUESTION!!

Because they would be all for the immigrants and not for the Americans. We need people for the Americans!

You are right!  Your country, your rights.  It's called freedom of speech.  They obviously came to our country for a reason, they shouldnt expect America to change the way we have lived to accomodate them.  We didn't ask them to come here, they asked us to let them in. deal with it or go back to where you came from!!!!

people from other nations, especially 3rd world countries find freedoms they don't enjoy at home in the US, such as religious and caste system types of situations, poor stay poor, also alot of opportunity for sucess here

She's clearly doing it for the advantages. Being born here means automatic citizenship. And it's neither right or wrong. It needs to be judged on the intent and need of the person changing nationalites or having a child born into one different from his/her own. Some situations may warrant a change. Not every country is an ideal place. In a better world, all countries are equal, but the fact is they aren't. If they were, the desire to be another nationality would greatly diminish.

As a European it is relatively straightforward to work both in the European Community but also in many other countries. However, we do need some control at the borders, we do not want too many Americans coming back home all at once. The US could make it easier to enter other countries if they offered reciprocal arrangements. What is curious about your comments is that you think everyone wants to go to the good old USA, I do not thinks so, there are nicer places to visit.

I am sure the Welsh people here in the USA are not here illegally.  Really what kind of question is that.  Most people are not saying we should close our boarders to all immigrants.  We are saying that immigrants need to use our immigration policies and procedures to come to the USA.  It is a matter of national security.  If an illegal day laborer from Mexico City can simply walk into this country so can a terrorist.

Yes they can.  Lots of Canadians own property in the US just as lots of people from the US own property in Canada.

The key word here is ILLEGAL, that makes it simple ship them back to where ever they came from.  If they want to be here legally and are willing to do what every other American citizen has to do, like pay taxes, then they can come in and serve just like everyone else.

It is not easy to get into this country legally, but most things worth doing are not easy.  As you said no other country, including Mexico, allows free and undeterred migration to their country so why should the USA.  The USA is a major terrorist target and we must KNOW who is coming into our country to protect our people and property from attack. It is about the greater good.  We could open our boarders and allow any and all who want to cross to come in but then how safe would they be after the bombings, gassing and killings started.

Whoa!! That's something we don't have. We're too generous. Typical. Then they come into our backyard and start asking for equality. Let's put the breaks on, people! I'm not against the fact that Latins come into our country, the problem is that they should be smart and considerate and ask the US embassy in their country for a temp visa or something in order to get in. The US government would then check every certain time to see which person's time is up. The person involved should have a chance to choose whether to get full residency in the US or go home.

Isn't it a personal choice? And anyway, If a person (immigrant or citizen) cannot communicate in the most common language of the country he resides in, who's at loss? Then why does one (who can communicate) make such a big deal if other person cannot communicate in national language (unless earlier is providing services to later).\n\nThe argument about immigration is not as much about a common language as it is about legal v/s illegal status. \n\nThat said, immigrants (as well as citizens) have to accept & respect the culture &  values of the country where they (with personal choice of their own) decide to reside (legally as well as illegally). And in my opinon that includes the national LANGUAGE as well. \nNo question about it.
