Is it true that Illegals just wanna be friendly with Americans? Of course it is stealing that illegals do, since they do not pay taxes, healthcare, and so on. But shouldn't we make them citizens so that they could give their fair share to America such as pay taxes, pay healthcare, and so on? Instead of sending them back home, we could make them citizens so that they can see how they have to pay taxes and junk, then they would probably become bored of paying their taxes and see how annoying it is, then they might go to their countries.

HELL no!
If they're made legal they'd be eligible for more Welfare and all public services in greater numbers!
That post is very UN-AMERICAN!

HECK NO! I am Hispanic, my family came from down south. Only one came over illegally. What many people do not know is that, workers are given a fake SS# so they can pay taxes. I used to work for the I.R.S. and saw many numbers. The employers have to keep record, it is federal law. So the government will either tax the employers (were the employers take the money from the illegal workers to pay the taxes for them) or the employer gives them a fake number so they will not get fined. Besides, if they really want to be here. They can do what many of my family members have done, come threw LEGALLY! Heck they are still some cousins of mine in Mexico waiting on paper work to be processed. It is so easy, but it is a waiting game.
As for health care, many already receive it. Our government provides it to any who are willing to stand in line for it and who are below the poverty level. Heck anyone can apply, but Americans are to impatient to wait in line.
We give all illegals so many benefits in comparison to their own home countries, that they are willing to not get certain benefits just so they can stay here and enjoy many of the American freedoms.

You will make a great politician for either party.
Double speak.
Here in Arizona nearly all illegals are paid in cash and so they don't pay taxes.Except for sales taxes on what they purchase .The few that do,pay taxes,don't come close to the cost they incur in my state.
The $1.3 billion in costs incurred by Arizona taxpayers is comprised of outlays in the following areas:
Education. Based on estimates of the illegal immigrant population in Arizona and documented costs of K-12 schooling, Arizonans spend approximately $820 million annually on education for illegal immigrant children and for their U.S.-born siblings.
Health Care. Uncom-pensated medical outlays for health care provided to the state’s illegal alien population is now estimated at about $400 million a year.
Incarceration. The cost of incarcerating illegal aliens in Arizona prisons and jails amounts to about $80 million a year (not including the monetary costs of the crimes that led to their incarceration).
The unauthorized immigrant population pays some state and local taxes that go toward offsetting these costs, but they do not come near to matching the expenses. The total of such payments might generously be estimated at $257 million per year.

No, making all illegals citizens would only encourage them. What we should do is kick them all the hell out of our country, then fine them if they try to reenter. Let's call it a "get the hell out of our country" tax.

If a "mexican" has been friendly to you is not necesarily because they want to steal from you. They are POLITE which is different. And even though you may be unaware, most of them do pay taxes.

Sorry to burst your bubble but MANY illegals already DO pay taxes even knowing that they will never be able to withdraw from the system based on their status. A lot of "illegals" are illegal because they over-stayed visas. An alien coming here with a visa can get a valid SSN in his/her name and/or a tax id#. I personally know many who do pay taxes.
