i've been living with my British partner for lats 2 years in the UK. he suggest that I can get British passport a year after when we marry. My passport is good enough to let me go to any EU country without visa but I still need visa for USA and so on.. but im well educated person with a good job so it's not an issue but only hassle... some say it's important to have right passport to be successful.. I'm confused. I'm not desperate to get a better passport or to be a British. but would having a British passport improve my life?

It would be almost impossible to solve illegal immigration in the United States. One way I think we can solve it is by deporting an amount of illegals back to there country. As deporting the whole population is not ecnomically viable for our economy and our pocketbooks. What about deporting all the ones who do not pay taxes. There is away for some illegal immigrants to pay taxes, althought only a minority does this. But, even thought they are in this country illegally, they are not eating up our resources, because they contribute to our governments cofers, and in return they should be given some rights. Although, I do not support illegal immigration, I think allowing the ones who pay taxes and the dependants of those to stay. As they are atleast taking some stance, and not just trying to get by the easy and free way. If i did not have to pay taxes of course I would not. But, why is it fair for an illegal immigrant to not pay taxes?

Nearly two dozen private hospitals in Los Angeles and Orange counties, accounting for up to 15% of beds in the region, are in dire financial straits and in danger of bankruptcy or closure, according to hospital administrators, industry experts and state data.

The troublesome development follows the closure of community clinics and hospitals in recent years that has left the healthcare system seriously overburdened.

If even a few other hospitals close or reduce costly critical-care services, it could mean longer ambulance rides to hospitals, additional delays in emergency rooms and less access to care, especially for poor and uninsured people.

Among the hospitals in poor financial health, according to industry analysts, are Downey Regional Medical Center, Centinela Freeman Health System in Inglewood, Brotman Medical Center in Culver City, Century City Doctors Hospital and four Orange County hospitals owned by Santa Ana-based Integrated Healthcare Holdings Inc. including Chapman Medical Center in Orange and Western Medical Center in Santa Ana, one of three trauma centers in the county.

In interviews, senior executives at Centinela and Downey said they were considering closing their emergency rooms. Downey's chief operating officer, Rob Fuller, added that his hospital could close entirely as early as next year if its financial picture didn't improve soon.

My friend has been living in the UK for six years after marrying an English man. She is now divorced but has the right to residency in the UK. If she wants to visit Europe does she need to apply for a visa. She has a Thai passport but not a UK one. If she needs a visa how does she apply?

I would like to immigrate to the USA when I am older, because of the cheaper house prices and a chance to vote against extreme right wingers. I would like to know what kind of jobs they want, there, so I can get a degree in it, and get that job there. =]

Any job ideas! I am only 14 but I am more intelligent than the average person of my age.

Any ideas?

I hadn't even considered teenagers before. But now I think that by letting illegals get all the newbie jobs we might be keeping teens from landing their first jobs and building up resumes.
I had thought that by making it hard to get jobs which required little or no skills it would motivate Americans to better themselves and continue their education.

I have worked for the Home Office for nearly three years, and i have seen alot of people coming into this country. "How can we tell who we are letting into this country"? Don't you think we should shut the borders, and say "No more"! "Why don't the government say no to letting all these people coming into this country. I have lived in this country all my life, and the changes have gone out of control with so called Immigration. I said to some friends i know a few years ago England is England no more. "What do you think"?

Thanks

why are people so against it? I I don't know, people complain about the dream act because it would give good illegal students a chance to be legalized, and therefore have a chance to get financial aid. People who are against it say that why should they get money if there are Americans that can't afford college?, well these Americans can also apply for a scholarship or financial aid. And if you didn't get neither you should really rethink why you didn't, maybe because you didn't get good grades? have you thought about it?, maybe you're not worth financial aid? maybe your GPA wasn't good enough? illegals had nothing to do with the fact that you are academically incompetent. srry if i offended anyone, I'm sure I did but it pisses me off when i hear stories about illegals that have 3.0 GPA's or higher and grew up here in the U.S because their parents brought them when they were minors and had no other choice but to come are being denied an opportunity to study.

"Mr _ _ _ _ _ _...please tear down this wall" speech someday in the future? I just think that building a wall is a waste of money and it sends the wrong message. Why not spend that money on more technology to reduce illegal immigration? A wall would be like saying..."we don't want anyone here...we don't care if you are illegal or legal...stay out of our country!"...Another reason why I think building a wall would be a dumb idea is because it contradicts the plans for the so-called "North American Union"...and "NAFTA Super highway" that both neocons and neoliberals support.

the undocumented who are trying to work , do not get any taxes back and are the result of bad policies created by NAFTA ???

or

the so many lose fugitives which should be reporting themselves to the police and nobody knows where they at which include child molesters and all kind of #$@#$@%$ which should not even be in the streets ???

note : please include wanted undocumented who also have crimes which ought to put them in prison not back to thieir countries .

note 2 : do not include in the second undocumented whose are only guilty of the felony of being here with out papers <<< not violent crime .

.... i have noticed that many who say to oppose the undocumented claim they understand a huge part of the problems is NAFTA however i have not seen any taking resposability for that , as if we could make whatever we want in other countries then run away and being ok with that . their only solution seems to be making criminals out of those which we created , sad no ???
