how has an illegal immigrant affected "YOU" and I mean "YOU" personally?

Question

I've seen a lot of people complaining about illegal immigrants but noone really gives a truly answer as to why so much hate for them, how have they affected "YOU" personally? don't give me the crap about taxes and sh*t because you still have to pay for taxes no matter what, so what do they affect you so much? why doest it bother "you" so much?....remember affected YOU?

give you honest answer

Answer 1

I will tell you what I hate. I hate the way they make me feel like a piece of *** on display at a strip joint. I never go out in public wearing anything other than long jeans and a t-shirt. I do nothing to provoke them and still they badger. They have no respect for women.

Oh and when they whistle at my twelve year old sister and smack her ***, which sends her home crying? Thats when we clash. How about when they have a license and cant read english. They send their NON english speaking, american citizen children to our schools, and they slow the learning process down for our children.

I like when they break the law and dont give a hoot. They can do what ever they want, because, hell, if they are written a ticket, nine times out of ten, it wasnt their information any way. Most dont have INSURANCE health or Auto.

Thats the reason for rising health care. Their child gets sick or a ear ach, they dont take them to the free clinic. NOOO they take them to the emergency room. Then they dont pay the bill. So, the cost just went up for the next guy, the one who does.

Why at my job, should I spend hours a day translating stuff to english for guys who have lived here for years and years, and refuse to learn the American Language. Why should I be required to learn Spanish to get a job in AMERICA.

Why cant I get a loan for a house, but my neighbor, who makes the same ammount of money I do, can. She's hispanic. I'm not. She got the loan because shes hispanic. Why in the state of Virginia are hispanic people granted, automatically, a 250K loan from the government? And I, a person who has been working and paying out social security since I was 14, (with good credit) get denyed?

Why do I have to send out letters every quarter at work, to our employees who have "borrowed" a Social Security number from someone else so they could get a job, and they have NO intention of changing it!! I have had some with bad SS numbers for years! But if we take action against them, we get introuble with the government!!!

Tell me why I have had, on more occasions than once, two or more guys come in for job applications. I take their forms of ID, make copies, and when I look at them.. GO FIGURE they all have the same name, date of birth, address, social security number, etc.

If I were to go to Mexico to live (Which they banned) I would have to learn Spanish. Same goes for Germany, France, Japan, Russia... So why is it so different with the US? Why cant they learn english?

Answer 2

Uh so i guess the amount of taxes I pay should not matter. Illegal aliens cost the taxpayers billions every year. Hospitals have closed because of them. I am sure the people in those communities are very affected by that.
Since you think the tax argument is crap I am assuming that you don't pay any. Get a job and total up all the taxes you pay and it equals close to 50%. Federal, State, Local, Social Security, Medicare.
I guess you think that the money the the illegals are sucking up couldn't be used for more useful purposes on actual Americans.

One last thing. I have NO problem with someone coming to this country legally, learning ENGLISH, and being able to support themselves. I have read many articles from legal immigrants that waited years to come here and they are pissed about these ppl just walking in.

Answer 3

Well, you live in New York which is 1000 miles from the southern border and has much more whites and legal immigrants from Europe. Come to down to Texas, and you will see. Like you, I'm 18. I personally have lived and gone to school in places that are about 15-20% white. I've gone to Wal-Mart and I was the only guy who knew English in there. I've been to McDonalds and had to use my Spanish skills just to get a Dbl. Cheeseburger Meal. I've gotten sick from eating fast food because illegals don't wash their hands. Several times after walking home from school I was nearly jumped. This may sound crazy, but we've literally had to have SWAT sit outside our school because of the violence and threats. And those instances were just the tip of the iceberg. 10 years ago, the area I lived in used to be great. If you haven't been affected by illegals(which actually are driving up taxes and depressing wages everywhere so technically you are affected) you either live in a exclusively lucrative white part of the city or you have been very lucky.

Answer 4

I have an illegal family that go to my church.

They are hard working and good people. The mother has a business selling Mexican cakes and sweets.

Their four daughters have all gone to college and yes with tax payers money, they all have degrees in nursing and education, some with even masters and now they are giving back to society by being productive. They all contribute to society in very positive ways.

The father was a teacher in Mexico, but in the states he is a janitor. He couldn't make it on a teacher salary over there so he came here and makes more money as a janitor.

These people are very humble and grateful to be here. They have done well and just purchased their own home. I don't begrudge them for seeking a better life. I don't see them as criminals but very hard working people.

Answer 5

They are a preferencial class of people that get hired over me for low paying jobs.

They are the leading cause of crime in my community

They make an average of 25% more than legal on the books pay taxes jobs - and both those amounts are gross, not net.

they organize and protest with the Mexican Flag to make our country like Mexico.

they are not prosecuted for crimes and are just let go

my attorney general wants to give them all licenses and the right to vote right along with it

I have collected unemployment for showing that I was not terminated for cause because an illegal took my position for less money.

I have suffered identity theft by illegals, and not just for SS but copying my card numbers and charging to my accounts.

They have demonstrated to me no desire to be an American - and if you say that's not important, we're gonna have a big problem.

They lie to me and try to convince me at my job that America is not soveriegn and is subject to the illegal will - and that's when I tell them where they can all go.

They tell me the day will come when they will kill all Americans regardless of race and have only hispanics.

That's just the top of my head - and if you don't believe me, your the one with the reality problem.

Next time do your own homework before you go around asking people if it's ok if you judge thier lives to piss them off.

Answer 6

My friend has yet to get his American citizenship approved. He has been in the Tech field for over 10yrs on a visa. He has paid an attorney to be here legally. I fight for the ones like him, who have to pay and pay to be here. Not have the luxury of being uneducated and the ability to get paid under the table. He actually pays in to the American system. That is how I am affected by illegal immigrants. He could do the same, but his moral conscience makes him follow our laws. He loves America! Sometimes I get envious of the rave review he gives our country. I blush I tell you. It make me proud when someone sees the greatness of my country.

Answer 7

The fruit they pick has made for a very pleasant life on my behalf.. and the money they made has given them a very good life... just about anything you see has been touched by immigrants ... they are the people that do the jobs none of us want to have or to nasty for us to do .. yet with out their skills we would not be able to put some of our foods on our table ... think about it how many of you want to work in chicken slaughter houses it stinks and the smell of death is in the air all the time ...
I don't think their is all this hate you speak of .. if it wasn't for 9-11 this would not even be a question...they were just a part of every day life ...

Answer 8

well, i have learned alot from them. I had one come up to me in a restaurant. He knew that I spoke Spanish from a mutual friend of ours and asked me what white Americans think of Mexicans. He said that in his apartment building that his white neighbors look at him like he is a cochroach. That made me a little sad. I just told him that we dont all feel that way, that there are some that are mean and hateful, but to also pay more attention to what he does, like if he made alot of noise to try and keep it down, that if he had friends over to drink, that they not get really drunk. In Mexico (where he was from at least) it is not such a big deal to "disturb the peace" or "public drunkeness". But that most white Americans are good people, it is just that the majority cannot communicate with him. He has since learned alot of English, he was a busboy, and is now a waiter.

Answer 9

#1 I have been a construction in the past but can't get work because I won't work for peanuts.
# 2 I am a dispatcher and 7 out of 10 jobs that I have wanted to apply for require that I speak Spanish.
# 3The illegals that moved in next do have no respect for other people or their property.
#4 The illegals next door has a gang member foe a son. (I heard them talking today, about how they have to go and kill some other guy for something the other guy did today. (Lack of parental supervision and the fact that his father was killed in a robbery and his cousin and uncle already gang members came up from Mexico to live with them).
#5 Did work in medical transportation and have seen first hand illegals taking advantage of our medical system. Illegals and legal aliens bringing sick relatives to get medical treatment here. Many dialysis patients that I transported on a daily basis were like this.( that is our tax money thousands of dollars a month and in many cases a week for treatment and transportation) And they act as if we owe them this service and treat drivers as lower class citizens when their own family is not concerned enough to transport them. This effects me because Medical pays for the transportation and because of raising costs of gas and and more people needing services plus no increase in funding by the state to medical most drivers and dispatchers make barely enough to survive in California.
Is that enough? I could go on but won't. I like my work but can't keep doing it.

Answer 10

On top of the taxes I pay to subsidize the cost of education for the illegal immigrants and their children, and on top of the much higher health insurance costs and health care costs I have to pay for my family, my children can no longer get a decent educaton in the border state we live in because the overcrowded and underfunded schools are swamped with illegal immigrants and their children requiring expensive ESL education.
