Is YOUR state negatively affected by illegal immigration?

Question

Good effect/bad effect/no change?

Answer 1

Every state is suffers from the illegal influence of individuals who do nothing but sponge off of society. No debate will ever solve the issue because you have the whiney liberal jackarses who believe in this idiotic open door policy.

What I really think many of these twits who keep spouting off that immigration controls are 'racist' should take a moment to read the immigration rules of Mexico or Canada. Amazingly restrictive and in Canada's case effective.

Answer 2

Not sure, I live in California there are alot of illegal immigrants where I live, but they don't effect me personally. The ones I see seem to be hard workers. I suppose if an illegal collects welfare or is a criminal it can cause a problem, but I feel some people take this issue way to far. I have heard of some people trying to kill illegals for no reason except for the fact that are illegal, pretty sad that American can act like such rednecks

Answer 3

My state will collapse if it wasn't for illegals. They come here because Americans give them work. Do you think an illegal is capable of owning a business and give work to other illegals? no, is the people that want to pay less and make a buck on the side. Illegals are there just to take advantage of the satiation and perhaps move up in life. It is wrong for people to cross borders without papers.....but how do you think this America of native Americans in now predominantly white?

Answer 4

My husband and I moved from AZ to get away from it all. When English becomes the second language then I have a problem. We now live in ND and have not seen a illegal immigrant for a long time!
We love it here.

Answer 5

Yes, I live in Virginia, where my tax dollars support a beautiful building in Herdon, VA where illegals can go and hang out in the cool, with fresh water and clean bathrooms and janitors and staff on the public payroll to keep them comfortable while waiting for employers to come pick them up to give them illegal work.

There are lots of legal residents who need help. Why give it to the illegals before the legals? How is that fair??

Answer 6

Negatively. I am from California, enough said in my opinion. If not, here is some examples: day workers crowd the streets, Illegals without insurance crowd emergency room, non-English speaking students crowd schools . . . . . .I could go on and on. . . . . .
