Title: Re: Care to take a poll? Post by zwibbs/Scott on Apr 6th, 2006, 3:35pm I believe there has to be a limit on the immigrants. I feel sorry for people who want to improve themselves and won't be let in-but------- The U.S. Manufacturing level is nil---face it, we don't produce anything anymore. The only people making money are the brokerage houses, the banks, and the oil companies. What happens to our economy when those three hit a brick wall ??? Think about it---we might be in alot of trouble in the years ahead. The way the Auto companies go is usually the way the American Economy goes. Need I say more. Give AMERICANS jobs-----they'll be needing them, if not already. |

Title: Re: Care to take a poll? Post by john_d on Apr 6th, 2006, 4:04pm Get used to it, since our laws allow anyone born here to be a citizen regardless of the legal status of the parents, Anglos will be outnumbered by voting Mexican-American citizens in a generation or so, regardless of what anyone does now.

Title: Re: Care to take a poll? Post by Sandy_C on Apr 6th, 2006, 4:09pm I don't have anything against immigrants, of any ethnic background - as long as they enter this country legally. Unfortunately, we now have 11 to 12 million ILLEGAL immigrants living here, many for years and years. Many have bought homes, born children (who are US citizens), and have worked their butts off at low paying jobs. I just can't see the US deporting 12 million people. But, I also just can't see the US giving all of them an "amnesty" of some sort. For those who are already here, in a five year time span, mandatory proficiency in English, and within seven year, mandatory US citizenship. So, if you don't comply, in seven years, you will be arrested and deported back to your native country. Your children, as US citizens will remain. As for those who attempt to ILLEGALLY enter now, immediate arrest and deportation. Fences along the borders (north and south), checkpoints, and armed border patrols if required. Let's make is easier for foreigners to enter this country legally, and much, much harder to enter illegally. And, my biggest request to our government - ENGLISH is the spoken word in this country. If you want to stay here, learn it or leave. Off soapbox now Sandy |

Well, first off, I don't know what to propose, and I'm sure that there's nobody in our government that can come up with a solution either. But I think the point Chewey was trying to make is that there's pretty much nothing that is 100% made in this country anymore. Those American made cars you bought, Chevy, Ford, and GMC were ASSEMBLED here. All of the parts that went in to making those cars were not necessaryly MADE in the USA. I recently wrote a letter to the editor of my local paper in response to someone who had written "buy American". I asked, first, find me something that is 100% MADE in America. My second question was give me a price on that 100% made in America item. Then compare that price to the same product made anywhere else, compare the quality of the product, and then tell me why I should still buy American. Don't get me wrong, I love this country, and I would buy everything American, if I could find it, number one, and if I could afford it, number two. Please, somebody take away this soapbox I keep getting on! Sandy |

Title: Re: Care to take a poll? Post by Paul98 on Apr 6th, 2006, 6:08pm Support it…no. The compromise to allow amnesty for the illegals is a slap in the face to all the folks that immigrated lawfully. Do the politicians really believe passing a law will change the influx? Bwaaahahahahaha. Because of the protests the politicians are afraid to take a tough stance and they did this for show. It will have about as much effect as passing more gun laws or more laws for the war on drugs. Vote the bums out of office! Have term limits for state and fed elected officials (congressmen) and once they reach the end of their term that’s it. They MUST go back to the private sector, never hold an elected position again and cannot lobby for 5 years. Oh yea, they get the same health care and pension as the rest of the private sector. If they knew they had to swim in the same pool they made, they would make sure it was clean. Where is my verapamil……. -P. |

It is not amnesty. Be realistic. We are never going to expell them all so the only option we have is to mitigate the problem. We are not giving amnesty. There are requirements that each illegal must meet. If they meet the requirements then at least we have them documented, know who they are, and get them paying taxes like the rest of us. If they dont meet the requirements then deport them. I do think that before all this takes place the priority should be to secure the borders. No point in going through the whole process if the illegals that do get deported come right back over. |

Title: Chewy Post by Paul98 on Apr 6th, 2006, 8:41pm Today the U.S. Senate reached a "compromise" on illegal immigration legislation that would provide for enhanced border security, regulate the future flow of immigrants into the United States and offer legalized status to the millions of men, women and children in the country unlawfully You can use symantecs but it boils down to amnesty. As far as deporting all the illegals, I never said that. The contributing factor for the majority of illegals is they are willing to work for less than the vast majority of americans. No boarder patroll can stop the influx unless the incentive to cross is removed. Even if you did stop the illegals, buisness will just move off shore like they are doing already. My point of my origional post is the politicians have to be forced to live in the real world before they will put real effort into solving everyday problems for the rest of us. As they have it now, once into the club it is seperate full health care, seperate full pension, perks out the wazoo and no fear of being unemployed when they do get out. There are some draconian ways to put and end to the influx but I do not belive in them and my asbestos suit is at the cleaners today. ;;D -P. |

Title: Re: Care to take a poll? Post by catlind on Apr 6th, 2006, 9:39pm Hmmm being an immigrant I should probably stay out of this. Perhaps my youngest who was born in the US should move to Canada. So far it's cost over $5000 for me and 2 kids to immigrate to this country legally. It's taken 6 years, and countless hours of filling, filing and tracking forms. The fast and cheap way would have been to do it illegally, me and the kids would already be citizens and wouldn't have to worry about when Homeland Security is going to waltz in and detain me for a year without reason and then deport me and 2 of my kids leaving my husband and our youngest child serving the country in the military with his family torn to shreds. .....hmmm like I said, guess I should just stay out of this one. |

Good one Ueli. The best lineage most eastern americans can show is 5 and maybe 6 generations. My family can only show 4 generations here and we cant uncover any immigration records on mothers side. Guess old gramps was an illegal as well. Said he came through ellis island but no record exists. Many mexican americans on the other hand can easily show 10 and more generations in the southwest and west of this country. The mexicans and spaniards explored and settled the western half of this country hundreds of years before the forming of the USA. The indians long ago (before they were indians) considered every non indian an illegal alien. They supposedly snuck in from asia. The illegals can often claim many generations making the crossings for work. It should not be the peoples that are considered illegal but the American companies who move mfg operations to the immigree countries and pay less than subsistence wages forcing more and more to seek better paying work in this country. One side note of the current legislation is that I heard the illegal border crossings were busier than ever. Its a get in now while the gettin is good sort of thing. I also like the idea of joing the U.S. Canada and Mexico as one country as it is my intent to become an alien and winter on the beaches of mexico and summer in the canadian rockies in my later years. I guess I got off topic a bit but just what are they legislating. Let them come. Send us your weak and poor send us the masses etc.. They are not a threat but an opportunity for all. A large part of our economy would not exist without those that come willing and able to work. God forbids a 3rd generation american to do manual labor after the age of 21. Unless theres a power tool to help. Our wheel barrows now come with motors. An imigree will work for 3 months for the cost of a powered wheelbarrow and fill it too while we sip tea in the shade.

Title: Re: Care to take a poll? Post by tanner on Apr 6th, 2006, 11:25pm well puter problems kept me from responding to this post earlier so i will try again. How many of you shop at wal-mart the single biggest abuser of "buy American", I don't and yet I wonder what my stance might have on American employment if we all felt the same way. I live outside of Greenville, NC. the 2 biggest employers of local Americans are Michelin and BMW. This problem is so complex we could start an entire new website to it. before we moved here Linda and I were estate managers in Easton, Md one of the most prestigious and rich counties in the states. Home of Rumsfeld, Cheney has a getaway there the DuPont's are everywhere, and at least 20 of the Forbes's 400 own substantial property there. (I know I worked for one of them). And guess who they employ the s##t out of ......... illegal aliens using every ploy there is to become "legal" citizens. I can at least say that as the manager that we hired only bonded American citizens to do the immense amount of work required on an estate of this size and it led to many budget disputes between my boss and I. The only reason I won these disagreements was because I asked him to personally sign off on any sub that I did not feel right about. Oh well, water under the bridge, but the solution to this illegal problem runs much deeper then electable politicos or enhanced border control. Who cuts your grass? And who does your landscaping? and can they all speak English, display work papers or do they simply have a straw boss? Big Issue...........tim..........not on the fence!! |

Title: Re: Care to take a poll? Post by fubar on Apr 7th, 2006, 10:54am Who says 11 Million illegals WANT to be legal? Isn't it better to live here and enjoy all the amenities without paying any of the taxes? Roads, schools, hospitals... it all has to be paid for. If I could live here under the radar and not pay taxes... why would I suddenly want to make myself subject to Uncle Sam? I think granting amnesty (you can't honestly call it anything but amnesty) is a bad idea. We are STILL processing the paperwork from over 20 years ago when we tried to grant limited amnesty to about 4 million illegals. Wow, what a shocker that this time the pool of illegals is 5 times the size. I guess we really told them, didn't we? Illegal = Illegal. And now we reward them with amnesty because they managed to stay here under the radar for 5 years. Where does this dumbass logic come from? I'm all for immigration LEGALLY. Yes, it's a long and hard process. It should be. It should be harder. We should not be punishing those who did take the proper path by rewarding those who did it illegally. It's like letting 11 million people cut in line ahead of the people who have been standing in line for years doing exactly what they were supposed to do. -Fu |

I've also heard some staunCH Americans argue that they need the Mexicans to pick their fruits, or their farms won't make money. Then in the next breath they argue that they need to secure our borders. I know many good immigrants that came through the long, arduous process of becoming legal Americans and to allow the illegal ones to get amnesty is a kick in their face. Are we willing to pay more for services? Are we willing to pay more for security? Most of the illegals aren't paying taxes, yet they expect to be able to get driver's licenses, send their kids to school, and get healthcare? that's NOT right even if most of them are decent people. I don't know what the answer is. but I think fixing Mexico is a good start |

Not only that, they take care of each other, don't ask for handouts, work VERY hard and when one of them needs something, they pool their money together so that person can have new tires for their truck or gas in the tank. Shit, I barely know any Spanish, but there were times they have come to my garage sales and just telling them Gracias, seems to make their day so much brighter. That is why I say annex Mexico. I live among them already, they are my neighbors and are a HELL of a lot more respectful and kind than some of my other neighbors that are old fashioned prejudiced racist pricks. If it were me, I'd become an illegal too just to give my family a better life. |

Title: Re: Care to take a poll? Post by cardogman on Apr 8th, 2006, 1:19pm I'm laughing my ass off. No No No not the wall the people who climb over it. The gardener hires these guys I don't know if they are illegal or not but I would put my money on the fact that they are illegal. They pretend not to know english when I tell them to adjust the damn mower up a notch. Yup Republican I am but my lawn is Independent. Burtydog |

Title: Re: Care to take a poll? Post by cardogman on Apr 8th, 2006, 1:30pm No Beef with you Mel and your opinion I just don't agree with letting these people in. It's a very complicated problem but you know they are taking advantage of our economy when there own country should be figuring out how to help their people sustain and have a good life. On the face of it I have no problem with people like this. I do have a problem with the following. 1. This is an English speaking Country so learn the language! 2. Stop putting signs up all over the place in Spanish. 3. Stop with the phone prompts in English and Spanish. 4. Anytime these folks don't want us to know what they are talking about they speak spanish. That makes me uneasy. 5. Jump over the fence in to the USA and bring a possible murderer, rapist and terrorist with you. Do we need that possibility? and a lot of other things as well. What about the poor lady who hired a company to reseal her deck and they sent one of their upstanding illegals over and he raped and murdered her. Lay low on the garage sales Mel please. Put the stuff on Ebay. Burt |

Title: Re: Care to take a poll? Post by Melissa on Apr 8th, 2006, 1:47pm #1- There are young Mexican children in our school systems now learning the english language. They usually speak Spanish outside of school because their elders can not speak the language. But their generation will. #'s 2 & 3- I grew up with those things, and I'm 31. Obviously we're used to it already...at least some of us are. ::) #'s 4 & 5- Burt, all that crap could have very well happened by a legal citizen. Look, I'm not being apologetic, but we keep trying to separate ourselves from everyone else...and why? To think we're better than them? Please. ::) Anyway, to many it may seem far fetched, but annexing isn't really a bad idea when you think about it. :-/ Oh, and I'm planning my garage sale for the end of May. It's all the stuff that didn't sell on eBay. ;;D |
