ORIGINAL: EPGAH And as I said before, illegals are a sort of "defrayed cost" workforce: The cost is "defrayed" by having ALL of us pay it, rather than just the ones that use'em! Yes that is how health care and all types of insurance work...everyone pays into it and the few who get sick are the ones who benifit...would you like to volunteer for some sort of infirmity so you too can use the system? Well, actually, I asked the doctor what would happen if I refused to pay. After he stopped laughing, he told me the hospital would seize my house, my car, all my worldly possessions... Then I asked him how illegals get it for free...He looked and the ground, poking a loose thread with his foot for awhile before he muttered, "We can't track them" So that is the problem: American's can be tracked, and held accountable, illegals can simply hit and run! I mentioned to him that the hospital COULD go cash-up-front, like the local gas-stations, or since they can't be tracked, maybe they never really came to his hospital...He was rubbing his chin when I left...If we deny them services until they pay What if it does? The greatest advantages made in the American economy were the result of labor shortages. Europe, with a surplus of cheap peasant labor, never invented the mechanical reaper. It would seem painfully obvious that any item only needs to be invented once. True, but then the other countries would be SO ashamed to use American technology! America HAD to. Making more efficient use of manpower, designing our society for easier maintenance, etc.--these are better solutions than opening the borders to large numbers of unskilled manual laborers, just so everybody can have the perfect lawn. The Open Borders crowd is the strangest combination of Hispanic activists and privileged white people it's possible to imagine. Greedy employers want to hire cheap maids and muscle, and everybody in Mexico just wants to take back what we took from Santa Anna. In the meantime, Mexico's borders with Central America are as tight as the Siefried Line. Once again your knowledge of history seems to equal your lack of understanding of the English language. The Siegfried Line offered less resistance to the allies than our boarder does to the illegal aliens. The fact that it put up ANY resistance is more than our border...Our border at least has hostile terrain in some parts, circumvented, of course, by "do-gooders" leaving out food&water for the strays! They don't consider Guatemalans who steal across THEIR border "heroes." And have you ever considered what America will look like after the invaders are done with it? Take a look at Los Angeles, and imagine that kind of crime rewritten across our whole country...Or think of a field picked clean by locusts... It would appear that your knowledge of LA is limited to what you watch on TV. No, also the newspaper, especially the story of the Mexican-"American" choosing to JOIN the marching of the illegals, rather than suppress it...Some say that dual heritages confuse people, they are constantly pressed to pick a side. His was worse: He had to pick which side of the border to be loyal to...he chose wrong...But there were no consequences for it! After they ruin America, where will we go? No it is people like you who ruin America with your viciousness and bigotry. Well, I'm not the one speaking the wrong language, or demanding freebies from a country that hates me, nor arranging a huge march in their streets...Hell, some places--including some places IN MEXICO--are almost wholly subsidized by tourists who visit another country, but PAY THEIR OWN WAY! (Which right now, is just about every country, including many in the US. Without this self-hatred, Americans would assert our rights against the invaders...) Mexico won't take us...Canada, for all that they love immigration, can't, and WON'T afford all of us cramming into THEIR land...Basically, we'll be considered imbeciles on a global scale for letting invading scum ruin our country without punishing them and/or fighting back! And noone will want US in THEIR country, despite the outpouring of support they show for the illegals in OURS! Here is a novel idea...how about trying to get along with people who do not look like you. I will, as soon as they can learn our language, obey our laws, and--here's a novel idea--pay for the havoc their spawn cause! Or for the extra classrooms we need, more police, etc....Put a Stupidity Tax on translation of any official documents to non-English language... This sounds very much like GoddessDustyGold's idea: Deny them services and they'll leave...Or they'll reveal their true colors as opportunistic parasites, and frightened citizens will either give the cops the authority to round'em up and ship'em back (With something to stop them from re-entering America), or they might do a DIY job...which would be MUCH less pleasant for all, including the LEGALS (Who can actually speak English somehow...heck, China, of all places, is recruiting professors from my alma mater to teach English over there!) BTW, you never did say why the "Jobs Americans Won't Do" (AT THOSE PRICES--would you be willing to take a 60% pay cut, even if you were allowed to "forget" to pay taxes on it?), or even when the "low prices" offered by the invaders will kick in! You do not seem to have a very firm grasp on economics. The simple way to do away with the "need" for illegal aliens is to raise the minimum wage to fifteen dollars an hour. What employer would pay an illegal fifteen dollars when he could hire a citizen the same amount? The reason there is a "need" for illegal labor is that citizens will not work for five bux an hour and illegals will. As long as the government does not invoke "rico" or asset forfeiture then business will continue to hire illegals instead of citizens. As long as you focus on the symptom and not the cause you will fail to slove the problem. Well, let's assume our Corporate Masters are beyond the law, (Insert "Beyond Good And Evil" ref here)...But we CAN cutoff their limitless hordes of workers, and FORCE them to hire Americans! Or if they insist on hiring illegals, at least cut the line from the taxpayers...Make the Corporate Masters pay for their own "slave" illegals! Under Pre-Civil War slavery, I was taught that the Owner was responsible for housing and feeding them, not the government...And if they couldn't read/understand contracts or documents, that was THEIR problem! After all, the illegals are trying to make a perversion of the Civil Rights movement! Despite such minor differences in circumstances as bringing themselves here wilfully and against OUR will, rather than being brought here against THEIR will! Secondarily, no matter how little they're paid in America, apparently they sneak in here because it's more than they make in the factories that have been outsourced to Mexico already...But aren't their standards of living and/or costs of living lower "down there"? If that is true, they're just being greedy, taking what was not offered, rather than accepting what America gives them! Remember, our nation and our money is ours to GIVE, not theirs to STEAL! And as I said before, we could always bill Mexico and the other countries where the invaders are from...Or just confiscate the "remittances" of people who are "untrackable"! (The money from people who "don't exist" must be a bug in the system anyways![;)]) Their borders are quite impermeable when THEY want to...Like during Hurricane Katrina, ARMED Mexican troops stopped American tourists from retreating back to the relative "safety" of America--and prices for their "captive audience" mysteriously tripled! Could Mexico have been acting in THEIR best interests, rather than the tourists, (i.e., soaking the "Rich Americans" for all they've got, proving once more that they're opportunistic parasites, NOT something we'd want in our country?) When's the last time we armed our borders? Sidenote: How silly would it be to have an influx of English speaking peoples in Mexico--or any other non-Anglophone foreign country--and for those people to EXPECT the mainstream populace (the majority) to understand that the english speaking influx have no desire to learn the native language...huh???...but STILL want to be accommodated. It seems when such a question is posed OUTSIDE of our borders, it makes perfect sense...but when it's posed WITHIN our borders...you're a rube who's intolerant, bigoted and more than likely ignorant...BUT...with this particular issue...I gotta say...I find it MORE than silly that a decent sized subsection of our society seemingly has no desire to play ball with the rest of the populace and are perfectly content with being estranged from the mainstream...Games have rules. You're really not suppose to be able to cry foul if you won't play by the rules...because then you're really not playing the game...you're making up your own!
