We are not jealous, we are sick of them. Americans pay for the healthcare, welfare, taxes, education, etc. Illegal Mexicans come here and accept jobs for far less than they should pay thus kicking Americans out of jobs that they have had for years. The rich in Mexico keep the poor in Mexico from making a living so they are doing to Americans what has been done to them. Well, no thank you.....go home.

Some what I agree with you, but what it bothers me the most is that American where immigrant at what point to, and now they want to claim this whole nation as theirs, which is very wrong, They think that illegals = criminals, and they couldn't be more wrong, I notice that illegals work hard, very hard, and are willing to take the crappy, bad, degrading and low paying jobs that they wouldn't take, obviously they CAN NOT live off the government 'cause in order to do so you have to be in status, one more thing, when they go to another countries (like mine which is beautiful and hot year round) we DO treat them nice and with respect, but when it comes to them treating foreigners a lot of them treat us like pieces of garbage,( myself being an example several times) some times they don't care if you are legal or not the fact that you belong to other country makes then to dislike you in the spot. if anything the ONLY ONES that should be complaining an waining are the INDIAN AMERICANS, they belong here 100% and I don't see any of them calling foreigners and/or illegals criminals and treating them with disrespect. What a shame!

Americans are all those people that live from Canada all the way down to Chile. As you might have notice America is the name of the whole continent..you know..the New World as it was known back in the days. It's funny to see how people from the US uses the word "American" to describe themselves...lol... In Spanish we do have a name for people from the US.."Estado Unidenses" which means people from "Estados Unidos" (United States)
The rest of us Americans have a name for example:
People from Mexico: Mexicans
People from Cuba: Cubans
and so on.....
This is America:
Canada, USA, Mexico = North America
Honduras,El Salvador, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Panama, Costa Rica and Belize = Central America
Colombia,Ecuador,Brazil,Peru,Bolivia,Argentina,Uruguay,Paraguay,Venezuela,Guyana,Suriname,French Guiana and Chile = South America

First of all, we're not jealous of immigrants. We're pissed at ILLEGAL immigrants because they don't pay the same taxes that the rest of Americans are forced to pay out of our paychecks every freakin' week.
I love immigrants because they will do the labor I would never do for a quarter of the cost. I could hire a Mexican to work all day long in the 100 degree in my yard for 50 bucks.
Before you think you know the answer to your question, you need to know all the aspects and principles before you accuse.

Jealousy is not the correct term...Often illegal's take good jobs for less money & push Americans out of work...America is in trouble and we don't have enough jobs to support our own population...Illegals should get or make jobs in thier own country & let America get back on it's feet...Why are American's "Mad"? Because illegals benefit from American tax dollars & don't appreciate the damage they are causing our people...Illegal's in our schools (changing the way kids are taught & making classes so big teachers can't teach affectively), getting public assistance (which most Americans can't get, though we pay for it), take jobs many Americans wish they could still get (but because illegals are cheaper to pay, we lose our own jobs, such as in the construction trades)...There are more good solid reasons for NOT appreciating others coming into our country, leaching off us & driving Americans into unemployment lines, hey, who cares as long as you get what you want...Right?

We are not opposed to legal immigration. We oppose illegal immigration. We don't want those who's first act in America is a crime just by their being here. It is not fair to the legal immigrant who must wait several years to come here for some illegal alien to walk across the border or overstay their visas. It has nothing to do with any nationality or race. Illegal aliens come from every country and every race.

OH I don't think that way at ALL!!!!!!!!!
Why should we be jealous of ANYTHING.....we have malls, and ipods and foam parties. My friends and I have great hair and our Daddies buy us really pretty cars......(mine is the best though). I get to go to really great schools and wear SUPER clothes (you should see these shoes I bought today). We have the best pets....you should see my Mr. Huggems........he is the sweetest. Your question is crazy..........as a matter of fact I am currently getting a pedicure while I answer this question........isn't America great! Stop saying that silly.........we aren't jealous of immigrants....we are only jealous of each other! Even I get that silly boy.
NOTE: Americans1st or whatever your name is.......GREAT, FANTASTIC generalization......you are a class act!
kisses and love

Are you serious? Come to NJ and take a look at the immigrants here, especially the elderly ones. Take, take, take! They're on Medicaid and just pay $2.00 for each medical prescription. How much do you have to pay? Also, drug stores are the only American stores they patronize, because they have to. No ethnic drug stores in the area.

Most Americans that are jealous of people (immigrants) who hit it out good here, are just jealous because they cannot work real hard for sometimes even very cheap wages.
