Why do so many Americans think their country is being invaded by Mexicans?

Question

Are the underpaid migrant workers really threatening you that much?

Answer 1

I've reasoned with you people for long enough. If your really going to try and spread that liberal tolerance garbage around and think the majority of patriotic Americans are going to accept it, I believe (and really hope) you are badly mistaken. Its my country, I have the right to get them out if I don't want them. Plus the drain on our economy. And being underpaid? Yeah, thats less jobs for the legal Americans because they're stealing them right out from under our feet.

Answer 2

Because the national debt of the United States is so large it has to maintain a certain growth rate at any cost if the currency is to have a life expectancy of over 10 years. Greenspan believes the probability of dollar collapse in the next five years is 1 in 4.

To hold this collapse off the economy needs to have taxable growth equal to the interest it pays on the circulation.

Migrants increase the output and consumption capacities of the country. In terms of wages don't forget they are the ones being exploited- the American minimum wage is being held back by the political leverage of exploitERs. (it should be at least $8 on the hour by now.)

Anyway the growth of taxable income by exploitation increases tax incomes which is needed to fight off the inflation pressures on the dollar by the debts weighted against it.

So while some people may dislike immigration the country economically doesn't really have a choice. This is shown by the fact that the 1100km of border fence which has just been approved has not been funded and Homeland Security have not drawn up any plans to build it. Hence the approval is all that has been done- the fence will likely never exist.

Answer 3

well to put it politly,were being invaded by many races but it seems the Latino(predominatly Mexicans)have an agenda of their own(and I've been married to one for 15 years)it wasnt an issue until the mass of (ILLEGAL)immigrants flooded the mainstream and put a strain on our economy,health services etc,which started costing us astronomical amounts of money,and closing down emergency rooms etc.Do i blame this all on this issue,No,but it has created an enormous effect on the programs offered to the poor,as far as underpaid look in Los Angeles(where I moved from)and you'll see not to be Mexican or of Latino descent makes you a target for racism(I am White)and have been bigotted against so I moved from there.Do I think all Latino's are bad,No,but since the mid nineties the situation got worse and I grew up in a predominatly Hispanic neighborhood and we all got along until recently,now I'm supposed to feel like dirt for being the color I am?I dont look down on any body of any descent thats hardworking and Moral,and is searching for a better life,just ones that cant follow rules

Answer 4

Think? Think we're being invaded? We are being invaded by the greasers who are crossing the border illegally as fast as they can. They shouldn't be paid anything - they should be shipped back across the border. If there was ever a good case for the re-establishment of slavery, this is it. Round up all the illegals and make slaves of them and if they don't like that, they can go back to where they belong - Mexico. Obviously, you don't understand the gravity of the situation with all the greasers coming over and just think, "oh good little Mexicans, they're coming over to pick lettuce and crops." Bulls***!! Half or more of them are gang members and are here to deal drugs, not pick crops so you can have a salad with your meal.

Answer 5

Because it is being invaded. There are so many freaking illegal aliens in this country. They don't have to pay taxes...why is that fair??? Many expect everyone to speak Spanish. Plus, some of them are shady and steal (my sister and her husband had their brand new SUV stolen by an illegal Mexican). If these people want to be in this country LEGALLY and make a life off of doing hard work--great. If not, get the f*ck out.

Answer 6

How are many Mexicans invading the country? Is it because they are able to work the jobs that people don't even bother??? People come here to create something, many of the Mexicans that come here, come for a better life, why? because in this COUNTRY they are able to at least get some amount of money to support their family, that unfortunately their country has not given them. To many this is the land of "HOPE'' , but unfortunately many don't see it that way.

Answer 7

Wild-Thing your ignorant is oozing out of your ears. as well as others. All you go on is what the media and other twisted individual say. (only the bad.) you probably never known a Mexican before.

Judgment Day may come 4 all of us. You & A likes may want to cleanser your hearts.

Answer 8

The reason that they feel that way is because immigrants are able to do the jobs they cannot perform. The reason they work hard and accept that they are underpaid but still do the best is because they really need the job and are not use to the government supporting their families.

Answer 9

Wow things become more complex every day. I wish it were 1950. We had nothing to worry about except the Russians with the A-bomb. It was a very nice time. You who remember will be able to relate. For the ones who can't , it can't be imagined.

Answer 10

They don't bother me but most of Americans are uptight and cocky and fail to see how much these workers do for them. They are probably walking around in their robes drinking scotch not even realizing that the home they are walking around in or raising their brats in is probably put together by the help of immigrants. I bet if immigrants had loads of cash then the Americans couldn't get enough of them and would bring them in the country themselves.
