I live in an area that has such an influx of Hispanics that most job opportunities require that you speak Spanish. I am thoroughly disgusted. I am very qualified in my field and have taken a conversational Spanish course, however, I am by no means fluent and forget about writing it. I have been told not to bother applying for many positions just because I am not fluent in Spanish. Any attorneys out there that can answer this for me? I do not live in South America or Spain. I live in a small town in the State of Georgia in the United States of America. I'm in my mid 40's , divorced for 10 years with an ex that is over 45K in arears in child support, one daughter in University, the other one in high school, and at present I am unemployed. I have depleted my savings, my retirement funds and have $200 in my checking account. I don't blame anyone for wanting to improve their lives, except for when it is making my plight in life much, much worse. I'm pissed.

so, if a person kills a pregnant woman, they are charged with two murders, mother and unborn child. and yet abortion is ok? both times, a child is murdered, but it's ok if the child is "unwanted"? does anyone else think that this logic is flawed? i know people will say that you should be able to abort a child concieved through rape, but why punish the child for someone else's crime? how about adoption?

Several states are considering a hike in the minimum wage this year. Why would you vote against it.

I know there have been questions asked about this topic before but I missed them. So the conversation around my house today is the question that has been asked in the ask a question section "If America did a Cut-N-Run what would other countries think?Terrorist? " We ended up talking about women for presidency. Hence my question.. so help fuel out debate and give your answers/comments.. Thanks!

I went IRR a little sooner than normal and I'm not sure whether or not I still have my GI Bill because of that. I was in the reserves for 8 years as agreed upon and I have a honorable discharge. Please help!

A border is a line between two countries, not just one, It makes sense to me to involve the Mexican Government and work a solution out for everyone.
We help Iraq and they don't even appreciate it.
Why can we not help Mexico? They are our neighbor. And if there was good jobs there, they would not be coming here looking for one. And besides the Mexican people are good people for the most part. They are Christians and not Muslims. You see this is a holy war we are in. Just ask the Muslims, and anyone else except Geo or Dick. We know they cannot see it that way. They would lose too much money$$$!!!!

Should undocumented aliens be given amnesty or asylum because they have a "credible fear" of returning to their country and the CF is that they are too poor and just seeking a better life?

Shouldn't they just be removed from the US or given a voluntary departure in lieu of formal removal?

2005 August 04 Thursday
Weak Citizenship Verification For Medicaid Applicants
One of the costs of large scale immigration (both legal and illegal) is the subsidies for medical care and other social services. Employers get cheap labor and the rest of us pick up the bill. In theory applicants for Medicaid are supposed to be American citizens. How well is this requirement enforced? Not well at all in turns out. A report from the Office of Inspector General Daniel R. Levinson of the Department of Health & Human Services has found that most states make little effort to prove citizenship of Medicaid benefits applicants.

If another country invaded the US and overthrew the government, would you fight them? Would you take up arms and fight against them to get ride of them? Would it change if you didn't particularily like the current government?

Did you answer yes? Does that mean you sympathize with the insurgency in Iraq? Or is it different?
