Of course Americans move to other countries all of the time. Some times for a short time and sometimes to a new home. And Rich people are welcome almost everywhere even in Cuba.

I'm thinking also of people with education and skills. They contribute the most in any country. And they are voting with their feet. This Should send a clear straight message to the politicians in any country...hey brain drain party over here!

And no offense but don't be suprised if some educated and intelligent Americans start thinking about life in Argentina or Chile or Costa Rica!

So what do you think of it? Would you maybe consider doing it some day?

Legally of course! ;)

Is it only illegal if you get caught?
When was the last time that you turn yourself in after you, exceeded the speed limit, drove after you have some drinks, cheated on your income tax etc? So I don't think we should be throwing the first or any rocks.

I came to America when I was 15 years old (legally) and spoke no English. I learned English in a year. I got a job at a fast food restaurant and worked on my uncle's shop to pay my way through school. I received no assistance from the government but I was able to get and education. 25 years later I have a job that pays me over 100K a year and own three homes and a hefty bank account as well as stocks. America is truly the land of opportunity. My success is modest compare to so many other immigrants. I really don't care about illegal immigrants; I don't see them as a threat to my livelihood. I really feel sorry for people that can't make it on their own in this country and want to blame the immigrants for their ineptitude and failures.

The Good: those people that are willing to live their homes and risk their lives with out harming or hurting other people and look for a way to feed and support their families knowing that is up to them to feed and dress those God creatures that were born under their responsibility and not their government, they are willing to travel to different countries and suffer; loneliness, harassment, discrimination, segregation, hate, verbal abuse, under the justification of been here illegally.

The Bad: those people that are misinformed by the media and blame their misfortunes on illegal immigration not knowing that they have the full control of their success or failure.

The Ugly: Those people that live on government help i.e. welfare, section 8, false disability, and false unemployment they believe illegal immigrants are taking what belongs to them these people usually have a computer and are always spreading hate on yahoo and other internet media.

I say no to both. If the Dream Act in passed it would not only try up the limited fund for financial aid, but even if it is a one time deal, just look to the amnesty of 1986 that was also supposed to be a one time deal. It would only encourage more to not only bring their own children but those of their families and friends

I am a German immigrant and living in the USA for 4 years now. I am married to a "first class" citizen (that is really how they call them!) and therefore have legal status as a "permanent resident". I am aware that you have to be 5 (or 8??) years in this legal status before becoming a citizen via "naturalization".

NOW MY QUESTION:

Is it *mandatory* that immigrants have to speak the "Pledge of Allegiance", with that infamous Eisenhower addition "one nation under god"??????

I am of pagan faith and DO NOT worship the abrahamic deity. Any oath made to THAT god would be a false oath from me.

Now, what are non-abrahamics (non-jewish, non-christians and non muslims) saying in that case?

I cannot possibly be the only Pagan immigrating?
What do Buddhists say? And Hindus? And Atheists?

Although it is still so much time until I can think about naturalization, I am already really worried about that!!!

Thanks for all SERIOUS answers!

FERNDALE -- A man in Ferndale facing his eighth drunken driving charge is also wanted by the Department of Homeland Security for failing to report to officials there as scheduled, according to a court report.Salwan Brihko, 44, of West Bloomfield Township, is in this country illegally and was supposed to be reporting every three months to Homeland Security officials, according to a pre-trial services report.

However, the U.S. is not returning any illegal immigrants to Iraq at this point because of the war, the report said.

Ferndale 43rd District Judge Joseph Longo refused to lower Brihko's $505,000 bond at a hearing Thursday.

"There is a detainer on him from Homeland Security," Longo said. "The point of bail is moot."

Brihko waived his right to a preliminary examination Thursday on a felony charge of driving while intoxicated three or more times, and was ordered to stand trial in Oakland County Circuit Court.

Brihko could be sentenced up to five years in prison if convicted.

He already has at least seven drunken driving convictions, which prosecutors say he racked up between 1984 and 2004.

Brihko was sentenced to a year in jail after each of his last two drunken driving convictions.

Additionally, Brihko's driving license has been suspended since 1985, police said.

Oakland County Assistant Prosecutor Karie Miller said a concerned citizen called Ferndale police Sept. 3 to report the suspect driving drunk and police arrested him a short time later on southbound Woodward Avenue.

Police said Brihko was speeding and swerving in the car he was driving and refused to take a Breathalyzer test after his arrest, though a preliminary test showed he had a blood-alcohol level more than twice the legal limit.

"He hasn't learned and he's putting people in danger," Miller said. "It's our hope he serves the maximum sentence on this charge. I think it's valid that he does prison time."

I have heard numerous statements which say we need to deport them just because they make up a big percentage of the prison population. What they don't tell you is that they don't have anything better to do because we continue to discriminate against them stopping them from getting a fair chance in life. I have also heard that we should deport them because Mexico has been deporting their illegal immigrants. Have you people ever heard "An eye for an eye makes us both blind" Whats your opinion about the issue.

When people find out that I'm against illegal immigration, they love to freak out and say... " why don't you leave, your an immigrant too" lol wtf? is what i say. Since when am I liable for what my ancestors did? Im sure if I was living in my "native land" and illegals were crossing the borders constantly raping my governments social services, I would feel the same way. I just don't understand why people support illegals so much?
It has nothing to do with race, but everything to do with economics.

Why are they mostly 40? 50 and up?
There are a few under that, but the bulk seems to be older people.
