Would you as an American, allow others from another land to end or severly limit ...?

Question

the opportunities for your children's future (and yourself) so that those others folks could come and compete with you and your children, for the benefit of everyone involved? In the end, making everyone's life style less than what you have come to enjoy?

Folks, I am not Mexican and did not mention that. I'm curious to know if you all feel like you are actually threatened by immigration at this point. Legal and illegal?
Should we allow people to stiffle down by numbers alone, what we have here? When, if ever do we limit that?

Answer 1

First of all I disagree that all people were born equal.We are all human but far from equal.We are not all incredibly beautiful or extremely intelligent.We are only equal in the fact we all basically have the same ability to excel or fail.
You can not get a position as a CEO if you aren't qualified.
You cant become a top movie star if you don't have talent.
You cant come in to the US as an illegal alien and expect to get all the benefits of a legal citizen.

Will I sacrifice my family's and my life style for another ? NO I will not.
Will I give my freedom away so someone else can be free .NO I will not.
Will I take food or opportunity from my child to feed an others child ? NO I will not.
Will I stand by without trying to prevent it and watch my nation being turned into a 3rd world poverty ridden nation? NO I will not I hope this answers your question.
The time for limits is NOW.

Answer 2

No. Every step forward has come on the backs of alot of hard working people that have worked generations to get to where we have become. Why should my children be kept from doing their best because a new group needs to play catch-up? Why should they be punished for having the oppertunity and applying themselves? Not every smart person gets into college. Not every talented musician or athlete gets to the big time. Not every deserving person gets to the top of the food chain. Life isn't fair and equal. It's what you do with what you do have. Not what you can take from someone else either outright or by holding them back. Oppertunity isn't a guarentee to success. Equality isn't special privalages for some and not others. So many times I heard "if you just give me a break"........but here you have people that got a break......what do they do? They're strung out on drugs, still hanging out with the low lifes and acting like a thug, many turn into the lying theiving corupt people they claimed to never be a part of, if they just got the chance.
Why should my children have to settle for less for some who don't know how to deal with an oppertunity when it's given to them?

Answer 3

Instead, we should expand the opportunities for our own people. Our spirit has been broken by the fascist demands of our future employers. People must be paid a salary for job-training, including college education. The ruling class excludes us, and it fills the gaps with pre-trained or cheap-labor foreigners.

America is not a "Nation of Immigrants." The Depression, when 30% of the people were out of work, showed that there was no longer any need for immigration and it was time to build on what we already had. That slogan is typical of the obsolete ideas those who stole America are brainwashing us with.

Answer 4

One, you're assuming a false dichotomy between people 90% of whom have no education, no income, no savings, very little if any English speaking ability, no skills, and your children's future. If when your child grows up, some uneducated, barefoot peasant is capable of taking their job, you're just not doing your job as a parent. Also, whatever they make, they spend and save and invest - it's not a zero sum game. By your logic, it would make equal sense to limit births, and people would become proportionately poorer as the population grew, but history clearly shows the opposite to have occurred.

Two, let them come, don't let them come, but realize that 90% of them ARE destitute, and when you read reports that say that 2.5 million more poor people live in America than was the case in 2000, and other reports that say that 8.5 million illegal immigrants have come here since 2000, DO THE MATH and realize that the mobility is UPWARD but that as people move UP they're simply being replaced more than 1 for 1 by new poor people coming from abroad.

Answer 5

The illegals and their employers are the only ones benefiting from this situation. And I'm more worried about the citizens who don't have what they need, not the ones who will have to cut back on their cappuccinos and drive a smaller car. Illegals are stealing their opportunities for a decent life. This should not be permitted.

Answer 6

Yes. All people are equal. I was born here, I did nothing special to come here.

EDIT: It is not the Mexicans that want to everything. Think about it, it is the liberals. As African Americans become more self sufficient, the liberals need a new participants for a welfare state...

I swear it, I would take a good Catholic Mexican any day over a godless, pointless liberal...

Answer 7

Our politicians are doing it by not getting tough on illegals.

Answer 8

no - absolutely not....but your question is misleading...mexicans do not want to compete...they want everything handed to them....the illegal aliens come to our country with their hand out yelling gimme, gimme, gimme.....or you owe me....

No Amnesty (by any name)
Attrition thru Enforcement
Repeal the 14th Amendment

Answer 9

I don't believe immigrants have ever ended or limited anyone in this country. Unless you speak Navajo then you and your family are immigrants here. Let's keep it in the realm of reality.

Answer 10

not sure what your trying to say, but if you mean someone that was trying to help only made it worse , should just leave !
