It isn't just welfare. We have universal education here which other countries, such as Mexico, don't pay for for their poor people. We can't educate all of their poor as well as our own, and our schools are failing in our border states. This is the most expensive benefit, along with health care, which is making all our health care costs go up.
Big business wants cheap labor, but we pay for the benefits that entice their workforce. Our children, elderly, sick and poor pay the biggest price through degraded services.

As far as letting terrorists in, no. This is true even though it does sound like a joke, but Mexicans would never let terrorists in, if they saw someone speaking something other than spanish they would report it to someone out of fear that if those terrorists got in and blew something up and it was found out later that they came in through Mexico, the border would be completely shut down and no one could get through. And they need to get through to get to the jobs that are here when there are none in Mexico.
Secondly they aren't freeloaders, in fact they stay away from welfare out of fear that is one way the government could track them and deport them. Same with all other programs except medical, meaning going to the doctor. And should they allow themselves to get sick and die solely because they are Mexican and not born here. They are human.
Finally, while they are doing something illegal, it is because to get here they have to. Getting here legally is very expensive. Meaning in the thousands of dollars, and they just don't have that. It also takes years, sometimes up to 15 years, but their families are starving now and they can't wait those years. They will never be able to raise that money because the economy has been so messed up by a corrupt government the American government helped put into place. So they have to come illegally.

The government (INCLUDING Bush) are letting ILLEGALS come here,because the big businesses WANT them here!!!! And,yes,it's against the law,but they choose to look the other way,instead of ENFORCING laws that we ALREADY have on our books!!!
And you are RIGHT,some illegals are HAZARDOUS to our health!! There was an article in the paper just a couple of weeks ago,about the Medical Associations concerns,about ILLEGALS working in the food industry and restaurants!! The article said that our familys are being exposed to all kinds of diseases,from illegals, and they are concerned there will be a MAJOR outbreak of some third world disease!!!
Also, my friend used to work at a prison,and there was an inmate that was an ILLEGAL,and he told my friend that he worked for Tyson chicken. Well,the ILLEGAL had T.B.!!!!! Can you imagine some illegal coughing up bloody T.B.,or some other disease,on your food??!!!
I REFUSE to buy chicken from Tyson,or Pilgrim's Shame!!! They BOTH hire ILLEGALS!!!
AMERICAN people need to BOYCOTT every company that hires ILLEGALS!!!! I've CALLED Tyson,and others, and told them i will NEVER buy their products again!!!! We need to HIT the employers where it HURTS, the pocketbook!!!!
Let's start the GREAT AMERICAN BOYCOTT!!! Let's SHOW these employers what we think of their "cheap labor"!!!! CALL them and tell them WHY you are boycotting them!!! These GREEDY idiots ONLY listen,if it affects their pocketbook!!!!

cheap work meaning the govern gets over on people who don't know the law whic many of us don't but it give them the advantage to save lots of more money by offering a large volume of work with a minscule payoff
ex. in steady of paying a regular lower class american $6.15hr a hour they'll a pay an illegal immigrant $3.15hr then make them work double the hours killing two birds with one stone by firing the american citizen for a pay cut thats continues all round while the richer get richer the poor get poorer

We do this crap because they are essential to the US economy. Everything you have is on the backs of immigrant labor.
We give them welfare because we can't just admit this and make a sensible policy (that would be amnesty!).
So, we'll play this BS game forever, because we sure can't kick them out, and we sure can't stop them from coming in. And our government sure won't ever admit they're a bunch of a**clowns who are just pandering for votes.

If you can show me the terrorist who crossed the border from Mexico... I will name my kid after you. As for freeloaders... uhm they take jobs no one else would take for ridiculously lower than minimum wage, of course people want them in this country its cheap labor. Before you get upset, read a newspaper go online to msnbc or cnn and search for the whole story. I'll bet you wont but wish you would.

I don't no but in San Diego we are being over run with them, and the police and broader patrol do nothing, just yesterday on the news they broke up a encampment of 50 illegals that live in the canyons of Carlsbad, the police just gave them information where they could get shelter, they didn't call ICE they just let them go., because they are working in the strawberry fields. but their are illegals working everywhere not just in the fields, and yet they do nothing.

Big business wants the slave labor.
Politicians want the illegal's vote,and the money from the businesses.
What happens to we legal citizens doesn't matter to either of those groups.
