Immigration - October 2006

A lot of people suggest giving all illegals citizenship will solve the problem because there will be no more illegals. Would that really help? Aren't there reasons people have to follow laws when coming to America? Can you give me some reasons why there are immigration laws? (please don't answer if you plan on saying they serve no purpose, they are there for a reason.)

We had read that Green cards for certain category of workers in the US is processed at a much quicker rate than others and that working at the university in the US as a professor was one of them.The application for Green card was sent via the university and was sent April 06.On enquiring at the univ. we were told that currently applications from 2002 were being processed.Is there a website where we could go to find answers and get numbers we could call and talk to someone at the Immigrations or Homeland secuirty dept as we are not sure who handles the immigration issues now.

According to the FBI in 2005, out of all the hate crimes reported by law enforcement agencies through the United States, 1,144 were reported to have been hate crimes against Ethnicity/National Origin. Out of the 1,144 crimes reported 57.7 were against Hispanics and 42.3 were against other perceived Nationalities/Ethnicities.

Do you think that the 57.7% of hate crimes against Hispanics out of the 1,144 reported were due to the belief that they might be illegal?

Just about everyone currently running for any office has vowed to cut off the free handouts illegals are sneaking over the border to get. No more free welfare, medical cards, WIC or Spanish in schools. I predict that within the next 4 years we will see illegals sneaking back to their own country with their tails between their legs when they realize there is not going to be any more free ride here for them. When legal status becomes a requirement and fake documents no longer are accepted to get a job here, they won't stay. We won't have to deport them. They will understand that they can stay home and stay poor instead of coming here to remain poor. Hasta la vista illegals.

Most developed countries, as well as the USA, have a real need of workers unskilled and otherwise to support the economy and perhaps more importantly to raise taxes and pay the pensions of the retiring populace.

We are not making enough children, and thus, we do actually need foreign workers. It doesn't take much out of the economy- after all, the foreign worker will probably spend the money he earns in the same country as he works, and thus contributes to general welfare of the economy.

This of course, results in more competition for jobs. Which is, of course, negative to those who "lose out". But, more people means more jobs, it is an overall positive thing, still.

If they are jobless, and have to resort to government aid, it should be taken into consideration that this aid is given in such a way to give incentive to become employed again.

It is for these reasons, even Bush was supporting a general amnesty- after all, the only issue is that they are technically breaking the law.

If employed are harshly punished, illegals would not come here & the ones who are here, would leave, in no time cuz no one would risk hiring them. You cut the head of the snake & not the tale ! SIMPLE !!! ISN'T IT !!!

I'm from Canada, and would like to know why so many people on here are obsessed with illegal immigration from Mexico into the United States. Are there several political campaigns against it in the US? Does the media cover the issue frequently? When did this become such a huge issue in the US (or is it only on here)? I'm curious, and would like to know what the issue is really like in the US or if it's blown out of proportion on Yahoo!Answers.

Thank you.

There's nothing wrong with loving two countries at the same time, is there? Or having a bumper sticker flag on your windshield? Or does everyone think if you do that, you're automatically illegal?

1 attack in London, 2 more attempted. We have every right to point the spot light at their little society.
We were not attacked by a diverse group of people but by MUSLIM males from Britain. We were attacked by an enemy who shares a common heritage. what's wrong with a fight back?
