I am an American Citizen and realized that i get no benefits compared to what an ILLEGAL immagrant gets. Why is that? What has this country come to when a U.S Citizen have no voice in any of situation but if you're a Latino or a Mexican who came to this country ILLEGALLY, you get your voice heard. It's amazing how you get rewarded for breaking a law. Now if you guys think i hate Latinos just cus I think it's wrong for an ILLEGAL alien to come here, you are incredibly stupid. I specificly said illegal, not legal so dont labeled me as racist. It's just amazing how an illegal alien can get better benefits than a hard working American Citizen or people who followed the rules of becoming and American Citizen. Sometimes I wish I was an illegal alien but i dont think I can live with myself by going into other people's country and tell them to give me benifits which i did not deserve.

I wouldn't call it benefit. It's because there are a lot of loopholes in our system. One that I know, the hospital cannot reject anyone that in needs including labor and delivery. So they could have a lot of kids here and there is no data or SSN for them so if they don't pay. The hospital write it off and the burden goes to government or taxpayer money.
Another one, here in Georgia, they can drive without driving license. If they get tickets or accident. There is no record for them because they don't have SSN or Driving license. You insurance has to pay you for the insured motorist, meaning your premium will soon increase.
There are more cases that I see here and makes me mad because like you said, seems like they could get away by breaking the law. I am not racist, I am an immigrant myself but I went through the legal channel

Agreed. I don't know why people don't stand up more than they are to stop this. Most of the people who come here illegally south of the border are usually full of hate and obnoxious toward ALL Americans, INCLUDING those from the same nationality who are Americans.
They are planning to protest again sometime in April along with their little "Boycott" again on May 1st. I don't know why ICE doesn't collect the illegals during that. I don't know why ICE didn't do it last year either.
Mexico, US and Canada are planning the North American Union where they will have ONE currency along with a court system which will supersede the Supreme Court. Making it a lot like the EU. The US middle class will be the first casualties of the system making people go into only two classes...the haves and the have nots.

How do you KNOW that the Brown people you see getting assistance (and I'm just ASSUMING here that you've ACTUALLY SEEN this) are illegal? There are Mexican Americans who have been here for generations. Illegals (even those with valid SSN's from coming here legally) are not eligible for social security, unemployment, medicaid, medicare, welfare, food stamps or any other government subsidized program. I would want to know how you personally KNOW that illegals are getting these things and how YOU are being DENIED help as a US citizen. Give me specifics not just your opinion. Which is what this "question" seems to be. By the way, many, many illegals DO pay taxes yet they will never be eligible for the benefits. Perhaps you've heard of a tax id#? They apply for those & use them. Those who came legally & are now considered "illegal" by the fact they've overstayed their visas can apply for & receive a valid SSN from our government during the time they are legal. Many of them continuing paying taxes through this number for years after they are considered illegal. Just FYI.

It is because we have a government tha only cares about Votes. They don't care about you and me, they care about staying in power themselves. As long as Americans vote so loyaly for the same parties they always did, we will be screwd. Look at the facts, most senators sold us to Mexico basically with that Amnesty bill ( I am not Bush so I will use the correct term here) most of them being Democrats, and what do the citizens do? Vote for the same liars and thiefs that should have been cleaned out years ago from Congress. We the zitizens are giving the politicians the power to keep doing everything in favor of illegals. As long as we don't get these idiots out of office, we will be paying for illegals and their 10 babies, in the meanwhile the deficit in this country keeps pilling up!

you have no clue about this, do you? you're just spouting offensive generalized rhetoric. start naming some "benifits" maybe you mean living in substandard housing? working 12-15 hours a day for half of what you make for 6-8 hours? no workers comp? criminal status because they try to feed their children? subject to arrest and deportation at any time, returned to a country in which they have no home? looked down on by people like you mouthing those oft-heard words "i am not a racist, but..."
yeah, this is racist.

I don't know what benefits you are talking about that the "illegal Immigrants" receive. I am married to an illegal immigrant and are friends with many. I know for a fact that they receive no benefits.
