The question was asked incorrectly.  What American citizens have against undocumented illegals is that we work and pay taxes, they don't.  We are already supporting our countries' homeless and welfare people and now we have to take care of the illegals also?  They want the same benefits that others get then all we ask is that they follow the same rules and laws that we as Americans follow.  Become a US Citizen, pay taxes, work, what is so hard about that.  Go back to the 40s, the people from Ellis Island were documented, worked and helped to make this country what it is today.

i agree with you.  if supporters of the illegals want to pay their bills and feed their twenty children, let them, but i'm not going to.\nyou do realize that the supporters KNOW the illegals are going to fuckem over, they know they'll be deported in a week, they know this.  pretty soon, no one would support illegals, because they come in, infest your house with lice and cockroaches, and when everything is gone, they will be left with NOTHING.

Perhaps these people who are willing to contribute to society should come up here to Canada.\nI find irony in the fact that they are there illegally but are considered necessary.

Yes immigrants are vital to every country.  They bring good work ethics and sometimes even new scientific ideas.  But they should come legally.  If you asked the questions are you for legal immigration I am sure people would be for it.  Most people against illegal immigration to the US are not racist, )not that you implied that)they just want to see politicians listen to them, and know that the laws are being enforced.\n\nLegal immigrants are great.

Because they are doing the job and making illegal immigrants go back to mexico or where they come from.  As a minuteman volunteer I'm proud of the fact that we are making the difference that the government refuses too!

Yes. Immigrants who make less than minimum wage will pay you handsomely to help them with their transition to a better life.

do you have an annual subscription to the BNP, i will let you come visit and i will introduce you personally to people who don't want to work and i will also introduce you to people who don't wanna work because they are better off living on the social security than they are working, they get money, money for their kids, rent, NHS supplies free medi care.\n\nDo not delude yourself that if every immigrant left the country then thousands of people would automatically come out of poverty,poverty has been around for hundreds of years long before we had even heard of "illegal Immigrant"\n\nand also we brought a lot of immigrants over to this country to do all the shit jobs we didn't want to do ourselves.research your history books before next time you wanna rant on your soapbox

Immigration laws affect everyone in america, either directly, or indirectly. If you like being able to speak english to do your daily business, or not having to install bars on your windows, or being able to walk down the street without carrying arms, it might behoove you to consider supporting the reform initiative on border security and illegal immigration. A lot of the countries these people are coming from are 'high-crime', meaning there's daily gun-play on their streets, in some cases. In others it means that their governments have become completely corrupt, and when all that boils over into america because we stood there and let it, then we'll have it on our streets too. Sounds like fun, eh? LOLOL

Without getting into the historical importance and the right that immigrants have to try and improve their lives like anyone else, immigrants contribute to productivity, on two levels.  One they keep costs down, which does lead to sketchy work situations but is one reason prices stay at a comfortable levels, and two they are efficient and hard working.  Their blood, sweat and tears are reflected every day in the foods we eat and the buidlings we work and sleep in.  They make America work.

If you are looking for an immigration sponsor, you need to have skills that they need in their business. It is unclear form your question what you would offer to a sponsor.

britain is going the way of most of euroope. The promise of social support and medical coverage is more than the government can handle.  Immigration fills jobs that others do not want.  But what people do not recognise is that the immigrants have plans to better themselves while too many people sit back and expect the government to take care of them.  Anyone that does not work at getting better will end up falling into the muck.  You make the future.  By getting more valuable to society the chance of success is increased. Do not blame others for your sitting still.

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.

Hey, it may be a good thing if there is another country out there that would support us once the USA is a third world nation due to the massive amount of people allowed or not allowed to migrate. After all we've supported everyone else for a very long time while our own citizens suffer from hunger and neglect so I suppose turn around would be fair. I'd like to sit on my a_s and have the 'good' working people of some far off land give me shelter, food and free medical care.

We have so many problems with immigration because our system is terrible.  We let anyone in at will, papers or not.  Then we try to deport the people who should be allowed to stay.  Now the government wants to drop the price of immigration.  I'm not against someone trying to make a better life for themself, but shouldn't we be trying to help them in their own countries?  That is, make life better back home.  Where are all the jobs for these people?  Some of them, and this has been documented, end up on our welfare rolls.  So I get to support my family plus someone else's who never worked to build our country.

I don't know if I do or not. I'm not against immigrants, I'm just against the ones that insist on being here illegally. As far as I'm concerned, they can stay here if they want, just go through the process to be here legally. Most of us here are here because of immigrants, so we can't really complain about that part of it. Yes, it would provide more jobs for those of us who are citizens but let's be honest here... there aren't a whole lot of citizens who would be willing to do the work that the illegals do. Have you ever tried to help someone who victimizes our welfare system find a job? I have, a few people,and all I got was, 'can't do that, won't do that, ewww, that's not enough money for THAT kind of work.' The people who are on welfare that are honest workers that wouldn't be an issue, but unfortunately I think those people are a minority. Good question!
