Reality of the matter is that we al ready have over 10 million MEXICANS here in the U.S., and realistically I don’t think much will be done about that. So should we take the Mexican State of Baja California as compensation for all of the social illegal immigration expenses that we as TAXPAYERS have to deal with?
we subtract the contributions from the expenses, it seems to be a NEGATIVE NUMBER. Meaning a negative contribution and we have to pick up the slack.

And this is what I think we should get compensation.
-Take into account that Baja California has 2 very large Coasts, plus it is a huge real estate, besides the natural resources that is possesses.

Note: If they don’t know how to use the resources at their disposal, maybe they should not have them!

We would not need to turn it into a State, because that would more than likely grant Citizenship to millions of Mexicans, instead we could turn it into a Colony or a U.S. Territory much like the Virgin Islands or Puerto RICO

Hi there,

I currently live in England, and was born here, but am seriously thinking of emigrating to Canada. I was just wondering whether it's really tough or do you think I'd stand a reasonable chance.

I did the test based on the fact that you have to have 60-odd points to get through, and just about scraped through, but this total could go up.

I don't have a degree, only college qualifications, and haven't got anything amazing to offer e.g. brain surgeon etc, but I'd love to move to somewhere like Edmonton.

Do you think I stand a chance or would I have to effectively go back to college/uni to even think about it?

Thanks.

With politicians making up such a small percent of the population, but having a large and varying degrees of suspect, illegal and immoral behaviour. Do you think that such behaviour (alcoholism, drug addiction, adultry, pedophilia, porn addiction) is more wide spread then we have suspected in the general population.

Please no need to mention political affiliations this is a general question and I am sure we all watch the news, and are aware of certain individuals this applies to. Keep the name calling to yourself.

This may be just a sensationalized article from the U.S. AP news but I read that there is a new type of marijuana plant that can be grown year-round called Colombian. It also resists pesticide. Do Mexican firms have the technology to genetically engineer plants like this? Or is it more likely to be a U.S. firm with a bootleg product?

I've read we're 8 trillion dollars in debt...that's a lot of money, yet it seems our economy is oblivious to it...like student loans over 23,000 dollars. I was curious what's to become of this, and with such debt, would we have to ....oh start over from scratch as if the debt never existed? Or we can't and the next generation will have to answer for it? I don't know much about the situation, so i'm interested in knowing what's up.

ALSO on my search i found this page....so i'm curious if that's a legit solution for the deficit: http://www.federalbudget.com/amendment.h...

Somone used my state liscence number twice and recieved six moving violations on my liscence. They spelled my name wrong, different address and terribly wrong birthday. I got aletter stating I needed to take apoints test. Went downtown found out about the tickets. The person paid three and the other two were half paid. I set a date in court about them, and still had tot take the test. I went to court, cop didnt show up and the DA office tried to take some points off, but I showed him the fraudlent info and he said all were dismissed and thrown out. He ripped up the paperwork....Now here's my question
Will I get my court fees refunded ot me? And will they send me a refund for what they paid on the fines? This is in Philadelphia, PA.

"W" said he could guide the world as leader. Who really thinks we can control and guide the entire world when so many problems are out of control here? I see a similarity to the U.S.S.R a few years ago in Afganistan and other regions, same or not?

I believe immigration bring alot benefits and opportunities to better USA we just need to control it in ways like recording who is in-out
by providing some type of ID OR fingerprints everytime some one enter USA. Main point is to have everyone on a database where they can be traceble for any reason

Take for instance, Isreal achieved statehood in 1948 and with in a short time has developed a democracy, successful modern western economy with comparable standard of living and the strongest army in the middle east. Why can't Palestinians work with what they have? Use their creativity to build an economic infrastructure like roads,schools and hospitals instead of building bombs. Why can't they develop businesses and trading partnership to grow a domestic economy so they can have something to offer at a negotiations table except broken pomises of peace. Instead of wasting millions of dollars on a pointless war and spreading hate, why can't they use those dollars towards a better future for their children?
