I think the way that it is presented in the media, the answer is definitely, yes. No doubt they provide services- pick crops, work in construction, ect.,but at what cost? Employers prefer to hire them because they work for cheap wages and no benefits. The consequences: Americans lose jobs they were doing before illegals swarmed the country, wages in realted jobs are kept down, and working conditions are not improved. Example: meat packing industry- low wages, dangerous work, long shifts that increase the danger. Before employers decided to hire illegals to increse their profits, Americans did this work, wages were considerably higher, included benefits, and shifts were shorter so work was less dangerous. So who benefitted? Consumers pay the same price for meat and many Americans lost their jobs. The employers are the ones reaping the benefits of illegal labor and the media, which is controlled by large corporations, propagates the myth that this illegal labor is necessary.

Are Morals brushed aside because you feel justified in your action? What if all the poor did that everywhere (here we have thousands and thousands who are in need-citizens)? And many do not break the law for their own selfishness and try to justify their actions. Is there a moral decline in illegals?

I mean, why is there so much polarization in this subject? While some people have human-right-oriented opinions. Others think about invading Mexico, deporting all immigrants, and who knows what else.

It's for "other than Mexicans"and criminal aliens from mostly central and south America.The program increased deportation from 3000per year to50,000 per year,in just two years time.The cost of deportation is $600 per illegal vs.$100 per day for detention.

Elections are just around the corner and the republican party is in disaray,by being in the majority in both the senate and congress republicans must shoulder the blame,Bush has sent troops to the border that have no authority to do anything but count how many illegals cross every day,they are no more a deterent then a stop sign in the desert,we sent armed troops to Viet Nam and Korea to guard and secure their borders but we can't secure our own with our military,he also mentioned employers would be fined if they hire illegals just where has our government been for the past twenty years?that law has been in place for years,Is this a smoke screen to quiet the majority of concerned americans or is this a ploy to get congress to sign and pass the ridiculous immigration bill that the senate passed

Think about this: If you don't want to forward this for fear of offending someone----- YOU'RE PART OF THE PROBLEM !!!!

Subject: THIS WAS IN A TAMPA NEWSPAPER

Will we still be the Country of choice and still be America if we continue to make the changes forced on us by the people from other countries that came to live in America because it is the Country of Choice??????

Think about it! All we have to say is, when will they do something about MY RIGHTS?

I celebrate Christmas...........but because it isn't celebrated by everyone..............we can no longer say Merry Christmas. Now it has to be Season's Greetings.

It's not Christmas vacation, it's Winter Break. Isn't it amazing how this winter break ALWAYS occurs over the Christmas holiday?

We've gone so far the other way, bent over backwards to not offend anyone, that I am now being offended. But it seems that no one has a problem with that. This says it all!



This is an editorial written by an
American citizen, published in a
Tampa, FL Newspaper. He did quite a job; didn't he? Read on, please!

IMMIGRANTS,
NOT AMERICANS,
MUST ADAPT.
I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we
are offending some individual or their culture. Since the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11,
we have experienced a surge
in patriotism by the majority
of Americans. However...... the dust from the attacks had
barely settled when the "politically correct! " crowd began complaining about
the possibility that our patriotism was offending others.

I am not against immigration, nor do I hold a grudge against anyone who is seeking a better life by coming to ! America .
Our population is almost entirely made up of descendants of immigrants.
However, there
are a few things that those
who have recently come to
our country, and apparently some born here, need to understand.
This idea of America being a
multicultural community
has served only to dilute our sovereignty and our national identity. As Americans......
we have our own culture, our
own society, our own language and our own lifestyle. This culture has been developed over centuries of struggles, trials, and victories by millions of men and women who have sought freedom.


We speak ENGLISH , not Spanish, Portuguese, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language.
Therefore, if you wish to become part of our society, learn the language!

"In God We Trust" is our national motto. This is not some Christian, right wing, political slogan.. We adopted this motto because Christian men and women.......on Christian principles.............
founded this nation..... and this is clearly documented.
It is certainly appropriate to display it
on the walls of our schools.
If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the world as
your new home.........because
God is part of our culture.

If Stars and Stripes offend you, or
you don't like Uncle Sam, then you
should seriously consider a move
to another part of this planet.
We
are happy with our culture and have
no desire to change, and we really
don't care how you did things where
you came from.
This is
OUR COUNTRY,
our land, and our lifestyle.
Our First Amendment gives every citizen the
right to express his opinion and we
will allow you every opportunity to do so!
But once you are done complaining....... whining...... and griping....... about our flag.......
our pledge...... our national motto........or our
way of life....I highly encourage you to
take advantage of one other Great American Freedom.......

THE RIGHT TO LEAVE.


It is Time for America to Speak up
If you agree -- pass this along;
if you don't agree -- delete it - You are in the WRONG Country!

AMEN

I figure if we all keep passing this to our friends (and enemies) it will also, sooner or later
get back to the complainers, lets all try,
please!

Is this you?
I don't see a problem. What are you talking about? What issues? Who said that? I never read that. I'm not hurting anyone. Why obey the law? What do you mean some? Are you talking race or anyone? Could you be clearer? Legal or Illegal?
So are you clueless , others get it-why can't you?
