Globalization does not need to cause so much hardship on Americans and if what is happening now to Americans lives is yours and our elected officals idea of globalizatiion, I think most Americans want no part of it. Since it is our country and according to our constitution which is for WE THE PEOPLE, BY THE PEOPLE, AND OF THE PEOPLE meaning United states Citizens, not illegals and not foreigners. We have the right to do what is right for this country,
We the people do not want to see it turned into as I said before, India, china, Mexico or anywhere else, this is what makes America Great, and the American Dream is being taken away from alot of U.S. citizens including the elderly whom we happen to love and Value.
When we say we don't have a problem with legal immigration that is true up until the point it is hurting our lives, and in this case it is time to stop all immigration until we know exactly who is in our country, the impact it is having on society, social program. etc. We the U.S. taxpayer also has a right to decide how many people we want to pay for and in how many different ways, it may not matter to immigrants who are only thinking of getting a job and living in America, People are not assimilating, our childrens education is lacking because of Bilingual education , over crowed class rooms , by a majority of poor illegals, also one of many programs the citizens pay for school breakfast and lunchs and they eat better at school while we still have hungry and homeless American Citizens. Where is the responsiblity of their government?
Medical is not free who do you think foots the bill, WE THE PEOPLE, WE THE PEOPLE FOOT THE BILL FOR ALL PROGAMS, our elected oficals are not picking all this money off of tree's,.I'm sorry but my pockets only go so deep.
Do you believe it's fair for illegals to get in-state tuition when Americans are truely struggling to send their own children to college and alot of poor American children never get that Dream either. Where is that money coming from do you think. these are only a couple of examples there are hundreds, we are being taxed to death, We have a right to say enough is enough it is our country, my family has been here since 1688, I am not an immigrant and as Dixie said I have no other homeland to go to, So We will take in legal immigrants to work as the market demands after every American is working and at the wages we are use to with BENIFITS and any company who doesn't like it he can get the hell out, we will prevail, you can count on it, I believe very soon the inovative American patriots who love this country and our Constitution will find ways to replace these traitor Corporation and start new manufactuing companies, you could not pay me to buy a Ford and this is what will happen. I will guarentee you one thing we will not do as all of the illegals and alot of the immigrants who come here to escape the country they live in, We will fix this goverment, we will stand up and fight for the kind of country we want and have always lived in.
We will not let it be destroyed by people who are trampling and burning our flag, who do not care about the land, or if the Eagle survives, the water and air is clean.
Leagalskilled You seem like a very nice person and probably just the kind we want to immigrate if you took the time to learn about the things we love,Our country our constitution, the wild west,native American Indians, John Wayne and mamas apple pie!!!But it is perfectly clear you do not know, understand or love this country the passionate way Americans do and this is why it is hard for people who are not from here to understand, its also easy to call us racist, bigots or whatever because we are willing to fight to save this country from being destroyed, so be it, I personally don't care what anyone calls me anymore as long as there is still the America we grew up in and love with all our hearts is still here for our children and grandchildren, it is all that matters!! You my friend have been brain washed if you believe this country has to change to accomidate global corporations and 3rd world countries! Won't happen sir!Illegal Immigration has awakened a sleeping Giant. If you don't know what that means your are probably not ready to be an American!
Thank you very much for your compliments. It is difficult for me to make myself understand these as I come from a different place. I have always made attempts to assimilate. I have travelled by road cross country, me and my wife drove all the way from Seattle to New York stopping in the country side, enjoying what America has to offer.
Wherever we go we make sure to learn about that place rather than just taking pictures, we try to eat whatever food is popular in that place snd try to get a feel of that place.
As I said earlier, if policies are framed in such a way that we will be forced out, we wont mind, we got so much experience here and we lived good life though we had ups and downs.
What our only concern is that the attempts you make to bring in orderliness into your system is further complimenting the law breakers and hurting the law abiders because the stringent measures affect people like us who have no protection and are at mercy of our employers.
Once again, thank you all for your open minded views, God bless you all
Legalskilled As I said you would make a perfect candidate for an American, I wish and I know all alipaers wish everyone Like you could come from a country as wonderful as America. Don't ever think for one minute people like me don't feel bad because we cannot let everyone in, also do not compare your self with most illegals aliens
H1 B's are not causeing chaos and crime in this country,they are taking American Jobs at lower wages and causing Americans to lose Insurance and retirements, something us and our family's fought through the union long and hard for, and it is a problem but not a racial problem, it is a matter of our lively hood and what happens to us in our older years.
Open border lobbyist and corporate America like to paint us racist but I guarentee you most of us are not, we all have very close friends of all nationalities, what we are dealing with is probably (20 million at least) who have never been to school or past the 3rd grade, they can not read or write and most of the parents don't want to, no less learn English, Our country is in chaos and anarchy and it is so hard to watch it being destroyed.
Its time for Mexico to start taking care of their own poor, we give them billions of $$ every year, yet the top 1% of the country holds all the wealth, then send there poor over here under the pretext of doing jobs Americans won't do!! HA, Americans are doing all those jobs and always have.
I am truely sorry when people like you get caught in the middle, thanks to greedy corporations for even putting you there in the first place. We just have to fix these problems and restore this country, My gosh we don't even know who is in this country.
But don't start worrying yet, if you have been here for 8 years your probably not going anywhere! Alot of people have come here the last 8 years and the ones here last would have to leave first, we did not say all H1B workers have to go, we said or meant if all Americans are working then have your foreign workers but at the same pay and benifits! :wink:
Also I'm glad you and your wife took the time to see some of the country on your vacation, so many awesome things to see!! :lol:
AND GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR WIFE!!
