American's how do you feel about all these foreigners coming to OUR country and getting benefits?

Question

From your hard earned tax dollars when we hardly have money left for ourselves?

Answer 1

I think we need to treat real americans with some freakin dignity and stop letting all these outsiders come in who have no respect or idea what america stands for. It's bad enough i have to wait 30 minutes on hold with Dell only to talk to some foreign women. That bothers me, but also what bothers me is the more diverse and cultural we are becoming the more our founding fathers ideas and principles are becoming confused and forgotten. All one needs to do is look on the dollar bill. In God we Trust. Our media needs some government control or at least some guidelines as to how they can operate. forget democrats forget republicans thats political. Be an American first. If you dont like it GET THE HELL OUT OF THE USA.

Answer 2

You just had to ask this question didnt you???? LOL. I for one am fed up with all the illegals coming into this country and getting benefits, not paying taxes, sending money back home that isnt taxed. I say we close the borders first but then our dear president doesnt want to do that because it would mean more votes for the Republican party. Not saying that Democrats dont want the same thing. Speaking English should be mandatory also.

Answer 3

Everybody in this country either came from a foreign country or was born as a descendant of an immigrant. Native American Indians are the only exception. So how do I feel? Very lucky and happy to be a third generation American and delighted that our borders are still open to those who care to join us as legal immigrants.

Answer 4

I know you feel as if your paycheck is getting raped by the government, but before you believe in the scapegoat that most or even 1/4 of the taxes you pay federally and locally are going to the immigration benefits or even welfare, you really need to take a hard look at government waste.

Immigrants are not afforded the rights of our forefathers and can not legally bring in guns to use for the purpose of hunting for food after their arrival. We once were immigrants, whether from Europe, Asia or elsewhere, everyone was an immigrant. But then we were allowed to shoot the animals and use them for our purposes of survival. In these modern times, it is just not allowed.

I really believe that the gov't is trying to hoodwink you into believing that their enormous waste of resources is not the reason for our exorbant taxes. How about doing away with giving away our taxes in foriegn aid? How about doing away with the exorbant government salaries for people doing NOTHING in the name of 'for the people, by the people'?

I think your anger is misguided.

Answer 5

It depends. Lots of foreigners immigrate to America to get a better type of life, b/c in their country they don't have the same chance to get a job as they do in America. I think these people should be respected, because NO ONE CHOOSE in which country to be born or live. And they should be even more respected when they got to dominate the english language at 100% and get knowledges of american history and culture.
I would resume it like this:
The people who come to the United States to work, to care about their families and TO CARE ABOUT THE UNITED STATES should be always welcomed. And the people who come to the United States to rob or assassinate and DON'T GIVE A **** ABOUT THE UNITED STATES should be completey kicked out of the country. Who agrees with me? I mean....it wasn't America an "immigrants country since a beginning?

Answer 6

Well, considering that only a few hundred years ago we showed up and drove the Native Americans (who were here before us) into perpetual oblivion without registering and applying for citizenship through their tribal governments, we're really not ones to talk. What compensation or taxes did we ever pay to the Native Americans for taking their land??... sorry, but casinos and booze don't count.

Answer 7

This country started out with us being the foreigners. Have you forgotten the Native Americans?

Answer 8

I have no problem with legal immegration. Um, unless you are a full blooded Indian, you had some ancestors in that catagory you know.

I do have a problem with illegal immigration, and that needs to be stopped. Some rules may need to be changed to expidite things, but no, if you did not fill out the paperwork, you should not be here.

Answer 9

If foreigners come to the USA then they should become citizens. For the ones who do not wish to become citizens i say send them back, give them no benefits. my daughter broke her arm...it cost me 1200.00, i have no ins. If i would have been an illegal alien i would have had free treatment. It's so wrong that they are here and we have to feed them and educated them. For those that say leave the illegals here illegally then i say come to Texas and check it our first hand. I'm not saying they don't belong here...I'm saying if they are here then they should be legal, if not they should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Soon spanish will be the first language of Texas and english will be optional. GET RID OF THEM

Answer 10

I support legal immigration to the United States. Legal immigrants get Social Security cards issued in their names, and do pay taxes. I am against illegal immigration.
