I am poor and worked hard all my life.  Now retired, can't get Medicaid or Medicare because I retired at 62 (after working for 46 years), adopted my grandson because his Mom is ill and Dad deserted them, can't get dental care for him because Medicaid won't pay dentists enough in this great state of Missouri, have $787 a month to live on.  Yet illegals can come in and get all kinds of help. Boy, does the gov't have their priorities screwed up.\n\nMa_isa, what makes you think anyone is joking? And I hardly think spending $10 or $15 a month for the internet is  living large. I personally bought my computer out of my tax refund four years ago while I was still working, before I adopted my grandson. Illegals get all kinds of stuff just handed to them without having to earn any of it. So, my dear, go suck a lemon.\n\nDe_rak, the reason you don't get it is because the illegals do. lol. (Yes, I knew what you meant.  Just couldn't resist the play on words there.)

A better question would be: What can we do to stop the bleeding heart liberals from taking even more of my hard earned money!  Simple answer: Stop voting for them!  \n\nNO MORE TAXES! LOWER MY TAXES!!! Just being a minority does not entitly you to my hard earned money!\n\nThere is NO RIGHT to shelter, food, or health care.  You have to earn those, not demand them from others who are willing to work!

I don't think it's so much that they WANT to pay more in taxes as much as it is that they are easily led by the Liberals in power who feel the best way to deal with any issue is to throw money ( tax-payers...not their own ) at it. And who can argue with their " Stellar " results ? Just look at how great Welfare works ! The bottom line is there's NO difference between the Lib And the Cons. ( if you are middle class ) They're BOTH Politicians who will waste our tax-dollars to further their own agendas and line their pockets. Rep. or Dem. if you're middle-class you're f*cked...the only question is HOW do you want to get f*cked ? would you rather have Libs giving your money to people who don't want to work, and backing issues like Gay marraige.....or by Cons. giving it to huge corporations...and making side deals with Oil conglomerates ? If you're middle-class it's the same destination, just different roads.

Some people, such as yourself, are creating awareness of the issue.  That is at least one thing the average American can be (and is) doing in the fight against injustice.\n\nI would advocate the following: \n\nStop paying taxes.  At the very least, recognize that our own money is being used against us.\n\nAs for the second question, try stop paying your taxes, see what happens.  This is why people pay the taxes, and accept the injustice.

I have been discrimanated against because I am a woman with a mental illness and suffer seizures - and unfortunately the discrimination comes from those who say they love me the most and want to take the best care of me and that I can trust the most - but there actions don't line up with their words.  I have been denied places to live because I made too much money in a year prior to a year that I had no income whatsoever - I have been denied medicaid because I have no child in my home and yet I have an unlimited amount of expenses!  I was denied shelter at a women's shelter because they could not see any bruises, but I had been a battered wife for five years and finally decided I'd had enough - they told me to come back when it was obvious.  Discrimination happens everyday and it doesn't really matter what color, gender, religion or if you're having sex or not.

Because they are all after one thing and one thing only, your money. Once they have your money they could give a shit less about your service. You are better off trying to figure it out yourself then trying to get them dumb asses to do it. Service in this country sucks big time. They are all money hungry!!!

Illegals draw welfare by stealing people's social security numbers and identities. That means there are a lot of people being directly hurt by these people as well. Innocent people are having their credit ratings ruined, having IRS problems, and social security problems. If someone who has had their social security number stolen gets married, if either spouse dies or become disabled then they can be denied their benefits. \n\nMy family moved to the US before WWII. Those of my family that didn't make it over got killed by the death camps. Our family assimilated to the American culture. We didn't expect the Americans to change to suit us. The illegal immigrants from Mexico are not civilized like that.\n\nThey not only changed the National Anthem to Spanish, they changed the words. They already burn our flag and hang our flag upside down. They waved the Mexican flag during a lot of their protests. Some schools have stopped hanging the American flag and forbidden students from wearing clothes with any part of the American flag on their clothing all to keep from offending the Mexicans. It's nothing short of an attack of our country, not only by the illegal aliens, but those who seek to appease them. \n\nI am tired of the stereotype that Americans wouldn't do the work that illegals do. Illegals do all kinds of jobs for less than minimum wage which drives the wages down for U.S. citizens. Construction jobs are an example. There are lots of illegals doing construction jobs that Americans used to do because the companies can keep more of the profits if they pay less for the workers. All that does is make companies wealthier and Americans poorer. Illegals are stealing jobs that Americans have done for years. \n\nIf you go to a country and refuse to assimilate, continuing to speak your own language then you are really not an immigrant -- you're a colonist ... and that's what the Mexicans are doing, they're colonizing the American Southwest as part of their "reconquista" Read about mecha in the link I provided and you'll see what the Mexicans real agenda is.\n\nhttp://www.americanpatrol.com/MECHA/MEChAindex.html\n\nMost Mexicans believe the Southwestern US rightfully belongs to Mexico; and most believe they should have the right to enter the US without government permission. –Zogby Poll (June 2002)\n\n~~~\n\nHalf of all Mexicans – over 50 million – would move to the US if given the opportunity. –Pew Hispanic Center (August 2005)\n\n~~~\n\n84% of Americans view Mexicans favorably.\n\nBut only 36% of Mexicans view Americans favorably.\n-only 26% of Mexicans say Americans are hard-working.\n-only 16% say Americans are honest.\n-and 73% say Americans are racist.\n\n-Zogby Poll (March 2006)\n\n~~~\n\nThe prohibitive cost of providing illegals with free healthcare has shut down more than 60 hospitals in California since 1993; many more are on the verge of closing. –Journal of American Physicians and Surgeons (Spring 2005)\n\n~~~\n\nIllegals enter this country without health screening. Consequently, epidemic diseases from our past – polio, tuberculosis, plague, leprosy – are on the rise.\n\n~~~\n\nIllegals consume $69 billion in social services annually. –Rep. Russell Pearce (AZ)\n\n~~~\n\nAccording to the US Census, 96% of the increase in public school enrollment is due to immigration.\n\n~~~\n\nThe Federation for American Immigration Reform estimates that children of illegal immigrants cost public schools $28.6 billion annually.\n\n~~~\n\nIllegal immigrant labor depresses wages for American citizens by $200 billion a year. –Lou Dobbs, US News & World Report (01/31/05)\n\n~~~\n\nThe cost of illegal immigration to the American taxpayer is $55,000 per illegal. –Center for Immigration Studies (July 2001)\n\n~~~\n\nAccording to the US DEA, 92% of the cocaine sold in the US comes in through Mexico (2004) as does 65% of meth and a majority of marijuana.\n\n~~~\n\nIllegal immigrants (ab

It takes that long to avoid the abuse that particular area gets.  MANY people want to claim disability who aren't really disabled.  Blame those people for the delays.

Because its not your money.  They believe the money belongs to whoever, "needs it", and not to the person that earned it.  They only way they can make sure it is distributed to their supporters to to first take it away from the people that actually earned it.

What's unfair is that they do take medical benefits and WIC and they can buy houses. What upsets me is that I was born a citizen of the United States and when I was jobless I couldn't get unemployment benefits (the restaurant that I worked for closed down and I had a son to take care of and I couldn't afford a babysitter). Nor would my caseworker help me with my benefits. My son is the only one getting full benefits, but because of the HUGE Hispanic population that has benefits, a lot of the pediatricians stopped accepting his health care plan. When I go to the WIC office, it's crowded and I have to wait 2 hours just to be seen because of the illegal aliens. And they don't even bother to try learning English. The only reason why they get benefits is because when they work under the table they don't have to claim anything. Then they send the extra money to their relatives back in their country. I have nothing against residential aliens (those who have green cards and are here legally in this country). They worked hard to get here, and they make an effort to learn the language because they want to be here. A lot of people mistake me for being Hispanic when I'm not (Hawaiian-Filipino) but my boyfriend is, and one time I had a Mexican woman who got here illegally offer to pay my fiance $10,000 to marry her daughter to bring her here, knowing that we were engaged. Another thing, about being mistaken for Hispanic Decent I would get upset whenever someone would come to me and start speaking spanish. But anyways, I know a lot of illegal aliens and they work under the table, receive medical and health benefits, and can afford to buy a BMW, a house with a $1,500 a month mortgage, and buy brand name clothes and things, and I was born an  American citizen and I couldn't even get help from my own government. And another thing is that there is a lot of unemployment here too, and they wonder why. I don't know if anything I just said makes sense.

Well, the reason this is all going on is that the government wants to keep us busy fighting amongst ourselves so that we are too blind and busy to see how they are abusing their powers and taking our rights. So, to do that, they have started discussing numerous immigration reform bills...some that would come down hard on illegal immigrants...other bills that would give them a short cut to legal status that would put them in front of many who are legally trying to enter the country...and there are many sub-issues being tossed around.\n\nDoes the gov't really want any reform? NO!!! They just want citizens to think that illegals are ruining our country and wasting taxpayer money. And they want the illegals to think that citizens are racist and heartless. This will lead to all the fighting and marching we have witnessed over the last several days.\n\nReality is that if the government really wanted workers for the business, they could have them by raising the number of persons legally allowed to enter, and making the process easier and less expensive. But the government LIKES to have illegal people here. WHY? Because the businesses that control government want slave labor. That is currently frowned upon, so they get the next best thing...illegal immigrants...little pay, no complaints, scare tactics...it all keeps their underground workforce under tight control. All the while illegals are treated as criminal when the true criminals are our government and businesses. Don't get me wrong, I hate having people come here and break our laws, but the most angering part of the whole thing is that these laws are put into place out of an artificial need to keep immigration low and to appease middle class workers who do suffer from job/business loss due to influx of workers who are willing to work for far less than is enough to raise a family on."Our" government really doesn't give a damn about the middle class...who are the fools who vote these jerks into office based on the lies they are told. \n\nSo, while illegals are wrong for being here, they are not the source of the problem. They are merely seeing an opportunity and grabbing it...similar to seeing a dollar bill on the ground in a crowded room with no way of knowing whose dollar it is...the first person who sees it is entitled to the dollar, because if they don't pick it up, the next guy who sees it certainly will.\n\nOf course none of this ranting leads to a solution, but I do get carried away from time to time. :) What can we do about all of this? Beats the hell outta me, but I know that calling people criminals and calling people racist doesn't solve anything, it just leads to more anger and more name calling and more distraction from truely important issues...which is what the government really wants!

It's all about the money! They know the people are dead they just want the taxes and they won't have to pay out the SS benefits to the illegal. Keep those tax dollars roll'n in. Try to keep SS afloat. Got to pay for our wars you know. Besides who cares? Most of them work at Taco Bell, KFC, Pizza Hut, and Wal-Mart. ;)

Taxes dont work like that..a government/public service is not a choice which benefits just yourself, it benefits the community. You cant say ' i dont want to pay such and such' because someday, you will us that service, and whing when you have to pay! Its a duty we all have to pay , wether we like it or not
