    I was damn near married to a Mexican Lady and I've been engrossed with their culture. I have much more of a clue than you.

    Now, if your upset at them, take a video of their employers. Don't worry about the poor schlub sluffing across the border. They wouldn't do it if there wasn't a guaranteed job for them.

    Immigration has become punish the drug users but not the drug dealers. Want to stop illegals from taking jobs, punish the people profiting off of it.

    They aren't taking jobs any American wants though. They're doing jobs none of us in here would do.

    TECH WORKERS on HB1 Visas are the ones taking jobs.

    Do you ever actually read what I write before you flip out?

    They get jobs and welfare, fact. If my kid gets welfare, I get welfare.

    I'm against workers from other countries taking our jobs, fact. If you can't find an American to do a job for what you want to pay, you don't pay enough.

    If you still can't fill the job, then we can give visas. If the visa program needs overhaul because it needs to be more flexible and farmers can't predict how many people they need we can change it.

    If companies save a few bucks to import workers in tech versus training Americans that needs to be changed too.

    Flip out.... Jesus...

    Just because I vehemently disagree with you doesn't mean I've "flipped out". I just think you're completely wrong.

    And please tell me how the kids get welfare. I'll wait...

    My mom was on welfare. Got food for us. If you don't consider welfare welfare then what other words to you disagree with?

    Grass?
    Sky?
    Water?

    I know you don't agree with the definition of racism, just tell me the rest so I can save myself the trouble.

    To be fair - it is really hard to find good Tech workers.

    Exactly right. The economic gains were in spite of him, not because of him. If we had a democrat congress for longer, and they passed their carbon tax and other really bad ideas, the growth would have been even less, or non-existent.

    And you'd be here blaming Bush still.

    Consider your sources...

    They won't say SHIT about how much they paid in taxes though will they?

    "And while the agency doesn't have a figure for how much this group paid in taxes that year,
    it said that unauthorized immigrant workers and their employers contributed $13 billion in payroll taxes in 2010, its most current estimate."
