why should illegal aliens Mexicans be allowed to stay in this country?

Question

Oct,30 2006 I traveled to the philippines to marry the woman I have known for over two years. I had to come back home without her and go through a long drawn out process of filing paper work here with the goverment for her visa and pay over five hundered dollars in fees. and until now we are still waiting to be together. she will be coming sometime around july 31, 2007. I feel the only reason the goverment wants the 12 million illegals here is {cheap} labor only. well if my wife can come here the right way so should they. or there is nothing fair or just anymore about this country. maybe the greedy and cheap business men need to pay alittle better wage and hire americans????? please contact your goverment officals and tell them how you feel please.

Answer 1

What would you say if the situation were vice-versa?

Answer 2

I wish I had the answer to why Mr .Bush thinks they should stay. I think he has some kind of deal going with Mexico or something. Any way I have been contacting my government officials and I hope everyone will keep the presser on. I say turn up the Heat on Washington. I'm very sorry to hear what you are going throw. Good Luck P.S your right the greed of so many business and they're owner need to pay better wages and say no to hiring illegal that come are.

Answer 3

Ok so I notice a lot of times on these boards there's an over abundance of ignorance and misinformation when it comes to this subject.

I'll start by answering your question in semi-short form:

There needs to be immigration reform. BUT NOT TO MAKE IT HARDER TO CROSS THE BORDER!!! The system is broken and it makes it hard for people to come here...which encourages "illegal" immigration. BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY....

We are Native American, we have been here for over 35,000 years (to be conservative). We have the highest population of PURE blooded Native Americans than any other Native American group. (If you work the percentage of pure Indigenous lineage to the total population of Mexicans both mixed and not compare it to ANY other Native American population)

Now to go into detail.

Now I hope as many people read this as possible. Lets start with the word Mexican. Mexican derives from the Native American word Mexica. Mexicans derive primarily from the Uto-Aztecan group of Native Americans who when the Indigenous people of the "Americas" populated this land inhabited both the Western U.S. and Northern Mexico. (As far North as Oregon and as far East as New Mexico)

So let me clarify, the debate that we are only Native to Mexico is false because our heritage has roots in the modern day U.S. as well as Mexico. There are also "Native American Indians" who inhabited both the U.S. and Mexico. That argument is nothing more than a manipulation.

We are not Spanish or European although a large part of our population does have some of the fore mentioned in their blood line. But let me also bring this to your attention, if you are 90 percent Mexican and 10 percent white how much of an impact does that have truely on being Mexican? Any ways our native tongue is not Spanish, we have a diverse set of Indigenous languages that are very closely related those of the "Native American Indians". The most commonly spoken is Nahuatl.

I'm getting tired of typing but let me end my post with this. We (Mexicans/Mexica) ARE Native Americans, and although many try to rob us of this title the fact remains. We have suffered many travesties and injustices over the past 500 years and it is one of my biggest prayers that one day we can all live in peace without prejudice and ignorance. Thank You.

Answer 4

i don't have self belief in an open border coverage yet by making use of asserting that your loved ones contributors immigrated legally and mexicans do no longer is ignorant simply by fact the regulations have replaced every person who says howdy why do no longer they only get a visa dose'nt understand the approach. in case you have been born in mexico ravenous, no paintings. you will possibly have 2 selections starve or pass illegally. Visas are lottery classes.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...

Answer 5

My husband came here legally and so can she...Its called a passport. We are going through that process of having him become legal. We have payed 2500.00 in fees. (we have an immigration attorney though)
You will never stop illegal immigration. So just stop gripping about it..Not to be rude because I am sorry about your situation.

Answer 6

Because as president Bush and the senate reminds us, we need 12 million lettuce pickers. If the gangs were not bused out to the fields every day to pick and bused back into the cities each night we would have no lettuce and we would have to import it. That is what a moron of a senator from Georgia was telling us....I can't remember his name.

Answer 7

I agree with you 100%. In my opinion, the employers who hire them, and encourage the action of illegals, should be punished by the law, also. A few really good fines to the employers should take care of the problem. Don't get me wrong, we have always used labor for harvests, etc. But afterwards, they went back home, and they got permission, to come, instead of sneaking in.

Answer 8

You and your wife did things legally, way to go! It is greed of companies that want illegals here. They pay big taxes to the government in which pays our politics. NO illegal should be allowed here.

Answer 9

is true and that is why we need to support the new immigration laws so that people who want to be americans and want to learn english and want to make this nation stronger can have a fair chance and all the other people who are here to just give immigrants a bad name can get sent back if they dont qualify

Answer 10

I have contacted various members of congress and told them EXACTLY how I feel about the 20+ million illegal alien criminals that are here breaking our laws and destroying our country!

NO AMNESTY! ENFORCE CURRENT LAWS, INCLUDING JAIL FOR THE EMPLOYERS OF ILLEGAL ALIEN CRIMINALS! I WILL NOT VOTE FOR ANY PRO-AMNESTY CANDIDATE! THE SENATE BILL IS A PIECE OF CRAP AND WILL DESTROY AMERICA!!!!!

Answer 11

I agree 100% with you . If I went to mexico with out paper's , I'm sure they would throw my Gringo @ss out as so as I ran out of money.
