why do rich american people hate immigrants?

Question

rich white americans have everything .why are they still hating on immigrants. if immigrants do the jobs that americans don't want to do. probably some americans would say that they can also do the same jobs as them. maybe they would do it but the immigrant would do it faster and won't whine about anything.for me rich people don't appreciate what they have and they just talk all this crap about how their lives is so miserable. they don't know whats reality. im american with mexican heritage. very proud of being chicana. i think the people who criticize immigrants need to put themselves in their position and realized that is not easy living in a country where they awalys promising u that the economy is going to get better, when of course is not.and some dumb a$$eS in here don't know why they have so many children well the reason is because over there ignorancy revolves around them is not their fault. USA needs immigrants so stop hating. latinos are here to STAY.

when i say rich americans im not reffering to white people ok. it can be any race. and im 19 yrs old from chi-town

i don't think my race is perfect i just know that we live in a more realistic world not in a material world.

stop saying that immigrants don't like this country they love this country they just don't like the rascist people . im american and they still criticize me because of my mexican heritage

Answer 1

ok since you singled out WHITES...how about this for an answer...NO we DO NOT HATE ALL IMMIGRANTS...just mexican immigrants like you. now how does that feel?

you just said rich WHITE americans have everything. why are they still hating on immigrants. read your first and second sentence.

Answer 2

Ok, I have never hated mexicans or immigrants. I just have problems with illegal immigrants. I was married to a legal mexican born in California. I used to visit Mexico regularly. Since my last name was Gonzalez they expected me to know the language. I didn't begin to know spanish, my husband barely did. I was only there from 3 to 7 days. I was a visitor. If I was there to make a living and be a permanant resident I could see why they would expect me to know the language.

That's the biggest thing I have against Mexicans coming to the U.S. They don't begin to know the english language and think we should all learn spanish. If you're coming to the U.S. to live permanantly, you should at the least learn our language. That is what irriatates me the most about immigrants and also the point that they carry the mexican flag and say they want to be Americans. Sorry , give up Mexico and become Americans and let your home country go and be true Americans. Don't say you're an American and carry a mexican flag. That's just stupid.

Answer 3

I actually believe that if there was a way for Mexicans to come to the USA legally, then they would. Mexico will not grant any visa to come to the USA Legally to any Mexican unless they have a certain quantity of cash in the bank and they need to have at least a business under their name and own a house. All this proof is needed. Then after that there is still a waiting list. Most people that come are very hungry and desperate. They don't have much of a choice. I know it is wrong to do this but if anyone were in their position they would do the same. It would be very hard for any healthy economically well citizen to understand that kind of life.

Now this said, I think not all illegals come taking labor that white people do not like. It is possible that white people of course and as always NOT ALL but most white have many more opportunities there for no necessity to work hard labor. Mexicans are just used to working extra hard and leave education for it, it is necessary. Most white on the other hand have the opportunity and go to school so they do not have to work hard labor. Who here likes hard back aching labor? I love to work but not to the point of killing my self like some roofers. But some people can take that kind of work. So it is not about ALL of one category it is about the Majority or Most of them. I think an issue here is stereotyping.

FYI I am a Mexican American, My mother came here with a visa legally and I was born, my daughter was also born here. We are all legal here but of Mexican decent just like ALL white are here legally but of some other decent White people are not natives here in the USA like the American Indians are. All white and Mexican and other races not American Indians. They are Immigrants from other parts of the world. Off course except Black or African Americans which came here by force not choice.
We are all immigrants at the end NO white man is native to this country they all sailed from Europe mostly. I personally have not seen an
American Indian all my life, Hope they weren't all killed off by White Man....hee hee just kidding you guys.....
I hope everyone tries there best at getting along....no man is perfect we all have flaws you guys.....

Answer 4

I don't think they hate immigrants. I think they are so stuck in their comfort zone that they don't take a look at the rest of the world. I think the same people who hate immigrants - and most of them aren't rich - hate Blacks, Jews, Indians and about everyone else.

I don't care if you are proud to be Chicana. That pride and 2 bucks will buy you a cup of coffee anywhere in the U.S.

I am proud that you are proud, but you can be anything you want to be in this country, so you are just like everyone else.

I think the people who set limits on how many people can come into this country is a reasonable thing to do. I also think that, if you applied for a passport and visa, you would probably get in legally and stop the frustration of all the Americans who had to wait in line to get into this country.

We do not dislike Chicana's, Hispanics or anyone else.

We just hate people who take cuts to the head of the queue.

Answer 5

I am a white american and I don't hate immigrants at all. Cheap lawn care. Just kidding. I mow my own lawn and if i did hire someone to do it i would pay them the same if they were american or white or latino or whatever. really. It's a phase. Like the Irish in the early 20th century. It will pass with time as people get used to it. I like latinos personally. And yes you would probably classify me as rich.

Answer 6

I'm a rich American and I don't hate immigrants. Most of us are descendants of immigrants. Does that mean I hate my ancestors? No. Stupid question/rant.

I don't care for or have sympathy for illegal aliens. If they were truly concerned with their family's' well being, they would wait in line and do it legally like the rest of the legal tax paying citizens of America. Then they would truly have a better life. They would be legal and be legally entitled to all America has to offer. Everyone else patiently waited their turn...as can they.

Answer 7

Most of us don't like law breakers period, no matter who they are. We have rules in this country and they are being broken by so many, millions of illegals sneaking through. They aren't just from Mexico they are from other countries too. A lot of felons, drug smugglers, and terrorists are getting through by way of Mexico because we have weak links there and the world knows it. They come over here get fake Id's and we don't know who is here not even their real names, now that can't be safe for our country. Most Americans are very concerned about it. These people also come here and it puts an enormous drain on public funds. We cannot provide high quality education, health care, and retirement security for our own people if we continue to allow this...
Millions of Americians are having their credit histories ruined because U. S. corporation encourages and supports the document fraud that gives illegals legitimate jobs.
I have legal hispanic friends and they do not agree with the illegals doing this...
The minimum wage in Mexico is equal to about 4.00 an hour thats not really that far behind what it is here, plus the cost of living in Mexico is a lot cheaper.
Living in America isnt that easy either. We have lot of poor folks in our own country that need help. Some folks are barely making it...

Some rich folks do like the illegals, just look at some that work for our government....

Mexico should stop using the U.S. as their social safty net and fix their own problems...

Answer 8

True that rich white people probably don't know you exist. Now illegal immigrants is what angers alot of people. I believe that anyone should have a right to come to America, so long as they do it legally. Immigrants fine. Illegal immigrant no. Be it Mexican, Costa Rican, Swiss, Canadian. what ever the nationality, come to America legally.


Roseknows is right. Plus you gotta love that line about pride and two dollars. Damn good! Bravo!!!!!!!!

Answer 9

Rich Americans are the ones USING mexican labor!!
ILLEGALS=CRIMINALS!!
The rest of us DO NOT like ILLEGALS,because illegals DO take jobs Americans need and will do!! MAYBE the ONLY reason illegals are not "whining" as you put it, is because they KNOW they would get DEPORTED if they did!!! Ever think about THAT??!!!
ILLEGALS sponge off the TAXPAYERS of this country!!! They are a DRAIN on our welfare system!!! A welfare system,i might add,that was meant for AMERICAN citizens,NOT illegals sneaking across the border!!! ILLEGALS are a DRAIN on our education system!! TAXPAYER money is USED to teach ILLEGALS' kids,when it SHOULD have been used for OUR kids!!!
There is NOTHING that i can say,that is GOOD about the illegal situation!!!
If you are so UNHAPPY here,then GO HOME!!!!

Answer 10

Why do you think it is hate?

Why don't you think it is just the feeling they would feel towards any thief who is stealing from them?

It isn't just the rich. The middle class that strains to make ends meet and wonders how they can ever retire with Social Security on the rocks pays the taxes that subsidize school for poor people. That is why we, like every country that subsidizes services, have to limit the number of poor people we allow to come. It is a great deal for the poor immigrants, so the line is long. That doesn't make it OK to come steal services we pay for and strain them to the point where our own children's education and health care is degraded.

Their better life is stolen from our children.
