Illegals or Terrorists? Which is the greater threat to our way of life?

Question

Not that I think they are mutually exclusive.

Also I may not necesarily share your definition of Terrorist

Answer 1

How about the average American corporate businessman, who uses every loophole available to cheat LEGALLY on his taxes. Then turns around and receives thousands in government grants through other convenient loopholes. Drives a car paid for by his company, who through government initiatives, at city, state, and federal levels, for the corporate entity end up costing the taxpayer millions in "incentive bonuses" every year. Who end up buying German cars for their wives and kids. Who live in houses "upgraded" with South American hardwoods, and Italian marbles. Who vacation six times a year at all the "in" resorts in the Mediterranean or the Caribbean. Who buy suits made in England or Italy, and whose wives won't touch fashion that doesn't come from Italian or French designers. Whose kids regularly go on shopping trips to Italy for shoes and leather coats, or London for all the "latest hip fashions". Whose diamonds and gold all come from Africa. Who employ (I didn't know she was ILLEGAL darling!) maids and housekeepers from third world countries.

Look to your own backyard America, before you start blaming outside influences for the country's downfall.

Answer 2

Tough choice as I have a sinking feeling they may be working together in a very secretive way, many not even being aware of it. I have nothing concrete to base this feeling on, it's just a hunch based on past events and human behavior over the last 50 years I have witnessed. I feel they are equal threats to this nation. Odd things are happening along the area south of Phoenix and Tucson in Arizona. That chunk of land is of great interest to both Islamic and illegals. Usually when a thing waddles, quacks and poops duck poop...it's a duck.

Venezuela's leadership has been in bed with Iran's leaders...strange bedfellows indeed and I think there are even stranger ones out there we don't know about.

Answer 3

If by "way of life" you mean the American collective ideology. Then neither of your choices would alter or garner effect on the social colective Swarm mentality of the masses in toto.

Assuming prime activities of Jerry Springer watching and bonding. Combined with proactive 10 commandment breaching. Then passionate embrace of anti social (hate) behavior, and self obsession. These meager terrorist or immigrants will never break through this shell of American Moral Highground.

Go big Red Go

Answer 4

Lazy citizens who are too trusting in government leadership and are too busy with trivial materialism to remain vigilant and protect their own freedom and liberties.

The problem isn't Liberals or Conservatives, it's the overwhelming number of people on both sides who follow an ideology blindly and support leaders despite obvious corruption. No matter who you support or who is in charge, you need to be cynical and vigilant. Too many Americans have decided to just be cynical. If we were doing our jobs, neither immigrants nor terrorists would be able to threaten our way of life.

Answer 5

Hello

Well I guess that would depend on what your definition of a Terrorist is???

Illegals are trying to make a better of way of life and Terrorists are trying to end your life.

Which is the worst case scenario for you??
As for me.......I'd rather have to fight for my job than my life.

Answer 6

Should we live in a society that uses the third world as its labor force . do we have a system in place that provides opportunity to the people it likes while relegating the basic task of survival to low paid workers who provide the true labor and work required to sustain life ?
We are building or should I say turning America into a nation of managers of others . We provide the capitol and the plan and determine the value of all labor performed .
Do we need a society that makes its money off the work of others without returning to those people the true and full value of that labor or do we abuse those people and enjoy two homes ,boats and vacations to exotic lands served by others .
Who determined that the basic needs of man would be so under valued in our society .
Those people who harvest the wheat ,make the bread ,deliver it to the people so they have something to eat . Those people who build the homes ,pour the foundation ,build the walls and roof install the finishing touches ,and make a home for people to enjoy for years . Each one of these people is considered a lower wage blue collar work man who is in many cases under paid and valued among the least in our society . While those who play with money receive huge pay checks and often are the same people who have been doing this for decades . How is it they became more valuable then the actual work of providing food shelter and clothing . The distribution and refrigeration of food in warehouse the transportation and delivery of that food to local stores to be consumed by the hungry workers who built the warehouse the delivery trucks and storage facilities those people who place it on the shelves and help rotate and maintain fresh quality food for all to consume .
Seems we value these hardest working Americans so little . We tax them to pay for wasteful projects that pay fee's to study groups ,planning commissions ,and the so called educated people of America . When the wind blows the the rain falls and the levies collapse and the people are homeless who takes care of them . Why must I fight with my insurance company to collect for my damages .Why must I pay a lawyer to collect my money for me .Why is it that those who bankrupt a sound business go unpunished while they loot the capitol reserves in million dollar salaries .
What has become of the dream that was America . Hard work today has as its only reward more hard work .
Stocks go up and down and still the brokers are paid . If you opened and egg carton and half of them where broken should you still pay . If the paint peels of the walls should you still pay . So why then should you pay when half the stocks go down that you invest in .
The money game is a big one .Banks ,investment firms,and others gamble with that money . They produce nothing but expect huge amounts of profit from there work .
Why not pay residuals to auto makers .Each time a car is resold the builder collects a commission . Each year when an Insurance policy is renewed a commission is paid .Long after the original work was done the person still receives money .
When a worker installs hundreds of miles of Phone lines for a company and three years later that company sells those lines and makes millions more in profits why do the workers who installed the lines not receive a commission .
Had we paid the true value of such work done by those who labor so hard the profit from playing around with numbers and money would not exist .
America is all about depriving others of what is rightfully their's. Why not let people who want to work continue to come here .It makes corporate profits higher somehow by paying workers less .Taking advantage of so called criminals is much easier to swallow then cheating Americans out the proper pay and benefits .
Who or what is a terrorist except someone who has been abused by others and will not take it anymore .
We should be asking why a terrorist killed himself and took others with him and working to correct the injustice that lead to it . Did the Imperial United States install an evil man like Saddam who killed his fellow country men . Do the people have a right to blame and try to inflict damage on those who are responsible .If they blame America are they wrong . Is it our own fault for allowing such greed and profiting at the deaths of others to secure 30 dollar a barrel oil worth letting a killer like Saddam in political office .
We rep what we sow and since we sow the seeds of violence and oppression and death we also reap that reward . Terrorist ,Illegals all I see is people who make a profit from these people and are not willing to adjust the system to keep peace and allow for an honest man to feed his family .
