I'd so so freaking happy if they all left I'd be dancing in the streets. Yes this country was the melting pot, for LEGAL IMMIGRANTS!!! Jesus what is so hard to understand???
The economy is going down the drain with these millions of free loading, criminals now. American Fat Cat corporations are moving their operations south of the border people, American jobs are being out sourced ! have you seen anything being dropped in price? NO you haven't because corporate America is getting fatter in Mexico! of those companies that are still here are hiring illegals after giving the boot to the american workers. Cheap labor! I wonder what this country is going to do years from now when there is hardly no tax monies coming in? Illegals do not pay taxes in most cases, they get paid under the table, send almost all their money to Mexico, pay no taxes, social security yet, we're giving them social security, free medical, free housing, welfare, education ! has this country's leaders gone mad?
No country can sustain themselves at this rate. you're right we will be nothing !! if this whole sale give everything to Mexico and the illegals continues!
Did you know that most of the 911 scumbags came through Mexico? illegally? over stayed their student visas? and killed over 4,000 american citizens, including babies in the Nursery? We'd better wake up and straighten this countrys invasion from the south before it's too late. The job you save maybe your own, people

You know - we survived fine BEFORE they all came here. I think that we will be fine WHEN they leave.
Pat Riley (NBA coach) refers to this mentality as "the disease of me" - basically, it is the belief that the ones that do 20% of the work feel they do 80%. He also goes on to state that EVERYONE - from the CEO of a company on down - is replaceable. There may be some "hard times", but the human way is to persavere.
I think we will do just fine.
By the way - I live here in Wisconsin, and I drove by some hay fields the other day - when we had the 98 degree heat going - and didn't see one dam "immigrant" out there slinging those hay bails onto the wagons. I saw a lot of farmers older than your father (I'm assuming) doing the work, along with a good amount of Wisconsin farmhands. All were caucasian - didn't see a hispanic among them. I think the farmers up here in "cheesehead land" will survive just fine.

This country is going to be nothing if we don't lose them, pronto. Are you having hallucination, or what, do you think these illegals made this country what it is and if so....why didn't they do something with their country? Hard working, you say, to bad you wasn't here today. I was driving down the street, there were 3 of them, working for the city I assume. All standing around leaning on a shovel, smoking cigs and watching to make sure the boss wasn't coming. I know a guy that has a landscaping business and just fired 4 of them for stealing his tools and showing up for work anytime they felt like it.
Get real here, you don't know what your talking about.

Sweetie.. before you go around spreading your racist rants.. open a book, search the Internet.. something... We accept more immigrants into this country than any other country..Every country has immigration laws, not just us... an illegal immigrant is an illegal immigrant no matter what country they illegally immigrating too..
Learn your history please.. not all white people were against blacks... Live and Learn it will do you well later in life when you grow up
I would be mad if all the illegal immigrants do leave because it took so dang long to get rid of them.. regardless of what race they are, regardless of what country they are from, and regardless of what language they speak.. if they are illegal they need to get OUT

So what you are saying is that only the 'illegals' can do all the jobs here in America? Sorry to say, you are absolutely wrong with that mentality. Is your parents teaching you this sort of stuff?
Our economy would NOT go down the drain at all and yes we will lose hard-working people, but those people should have come here 'legally' to come here to work. Instead, they broke our laws, period! Businesses will just have to find more people who can fill these jobs like they always do. You think that people will not do these jobs, I have to say you are wrong there too.
I think you need to change your perception and really get a grip on reality. You see, the people who are here 'illegally', are criminals who broke the laws of our country. If they want to do something right, then they should all go back to where they came from and come to this country LEGALLY.
Don't support 'illegal' crimes, because you will be as guilty as they are if you do. Oh, and please change your mentality.

Your stupidity is monumental. This country will do well without a bunch of illegal parasites. The melting pot argument is pure bull jive. We are not demanding anyone leave because of race; we are demanding that they leave because they are here illegally. The circumstance of living in a country that is adjacent to the United States is not justification for breaking our laws. If you're too stupid to figure that out, then you need to be sent back with them.

We will be ecstatic when all the illegal immigrants leave. ECSTATIC.
How is it do you think these things happened before we were invaded by these leaches? SOmehow the lawns got mowed, the crops got picked, the buildings got clean.
There was no collapse of the economy then now was there? There are basic economic principles involved that will solve the problem--called Supply and Demand.

I won't lose an ounce of sleep over criminals leaving the country. This country was great before illegal aliens & will be great after. Don't fool yourself!!! "Legal" immigrants is what makes this a great country. Not the "illegal" immigrants!!!

What did we do before they slithered across the border ???
Do you think that everyone in this country has a job now ? If so, guess again.
They're hardworking, so what ? Do you understand the definition of the word ILLEGAL ? They are criminals, plain and simple. Why do you seem to think that the reason people oppose illegal immigrants is because of their ethnicity ? Perhaps citizens of this country are opposed to ILLEGAL immigration, not the immigrants themselves.
And by the way, losing your job to someone who doesn't even speak English isn't because of stupidity, it's because unscrupulous business owners would rather pay someone under the table, and not have to provide benefits to them.

Isn't it wrong to characterize Americans as overweight???
Why can't we import legal immigrants. I heard that we are importing alot of Thais right now to work the fields legally. DOn't ask me why the Thais though
It's only going to be a temporary hit to our economy.
