Wrong.
And completely irrelevant. With increased border control we've essentially cut of Mexican illegal immigrants from returning to Mexico, essentially forcing them to stay in the US, which in the end is helping our economy. And trust me, they aren't stealing "our" jobs. If anything we need to make immigration easier, but Mexico really hates losing its incredibly cheap labor. If I lived in Mexico, I'd gtfo and stay out.
You're all focusing more on "how do we keep them out?" instead of "why do we even keep them out?"

1. We construct a 16 lane highway that goes across the border that has no speed limit. Whoever can make it across gets their citizenship.
2. We mount laser guided, heat sensing automatic machine guns along the border. Again, if you can make it through, ya get your citizenship.
both are pretty smart except you forgot to add the road blocks on the highway lol to make it more fun.
Ah yes it's certainly a good idea. Almost as good as the idea that "Mexicans" aren't people and actually deserve the treatment they're getting from YOU.
never said they weren't people i have hispanic friends but there are alot of hispanic people that are just plain lazy, i can't really grasp how they help the economy. Please enlighten me danke the way i see it white people in texas loose jobs because 1 main important thing there lazy don't want to get there hands dirty anymore and i think that goes for majority of americans now a days. 2 companies can hire illegals and pay them less and get either equivalent or more work from them because there making a lot more money than they were.
Edit: the road blocks are a joke man you guys have no sense of humor at all

Obviously.
Did you ever consider that because we are paying them less, it means that we are getting more work done for cheaper? And yes, these are jobs that Americans wont take, but these immigrants are more than willing to do. I don't see how this hurts our economy. You're not making any sense, everything you say conflicts with other things you are saying.

Ok, Well seeing as half the people in this topic have absolutely NO idea on what they are talking about, im going to try and make sense of all this mess.
Yes coming to this country illegally isn't right, But how about you try living in their countries and watching the news and seeing how U.S.A is the land of the free, you would want to dip here also.
Now does that make it right. No. There is a legal way to come to this country, we can all agree that the people who come to this country illegally aren't really following procedures. But on the other hand, Look how many people J-Walk.....its illegal, tell me that you don't do it.
Oh yes I know, I'm comparing apples to oranges. If thats your opinion then fine. Let me make this statement, Without illegal immigrants we wouldn't have a strong minimum/below minimum wage work force, Let me guess what your thinking "Wow trulife so you think its right to charge immigrants barely any money for hard labor", No I don't, But hey if Pablo will do the job for 60 bucks, And Bill will do it for 500 im sorry but No gracias ill stick with Pablo.
"Wow that last comment you made was racist tru", Please look at my first emblem.
Now lets talk about this fence idea. Who was the genius that thought of this idea, Now this fence, please someone tell me, Who's gonna build it? nuff said.
Newbymodder, any respect for you that I may have had has now flown outside of the window for this one statement "um alot of illegals kids live off well fare and don't do work."
And how about American woman in the ghetto who give birth to a child just so they could receive more money from the gov't.?
oh and also newby "ahh hahaha thats funny don't get me started on hard work because i don't think half of you city kids know jack about hard work.", please do half the work that these people do. Do ti for a living, Try living in a barn and the only way to make money is to slave in the south florida heat with jeans, and 2 long-sleeved shirts on with a ear cap pulling weeds, mowing lawns, building home extensions or any other building project. Once you do that then you can talk to ME about hard work.
Bottom line, With out them we wouldn't have some of the things we have no, if they want to come to this country to work for less well thats their business. And dont say oh what about the ones that come here not to work because how can you get mad at them when they come here not to work, and not get mad at the ones that are here legally and dont work just because they know they will get a monthly check and some stamps.
The problem with America well not really America, but most white people in this country is that they think if you are not white then you have no place here, They want this land for themselves (please note that I said most at the beginning of this statement) and they don't want another race coming and trying to make something for themselves.
And Dissolution241, How about you be the one to test if both those ideas would work since you know, you were so kind enough to share them with us.

It's cheap labor at a higher wage than they would get in Mexico, and they're happy to work for it and we're happy to give it to them. The problem I see is that because they're illegal immigrants they get worse jobs than they are qualified for. I know about six 40 year old illegal immigrants with bachelors in commerce and communications, etc, that they got in the US and they all work as house cleaners and in construction (not even as contractors or foremen.) If they're willing to do the work and not even for a full wage, I don't see why it should go to Bob the citizen who doesn't want to get his hands dirty. If anything it will keep the money they make inside the US, because they aren't going back to Mexico anymore, and Bob will get up off his ass and get to work.
If lazy texans don't want to work, than why should hard working immigrants not be allowed to do that work?
Also, the proper procedure is bullshit. It's way to personal and the US embassy in Mexico hands out visas like they're willy wonka tickets. Meanwhile you're working in a maquiladora and you're making a nickel a week.

the work wasn't' directed to people who immigrate and do hard labor or any one who works there ars off for that matter its to people who say wow he doesn't know about hard work. and note im not making a flame war just saying as for that remark about welfare i was over the line im sorry i was in a rant about this subject and i know its no excuse. but i think that if we didn't have people who immigrate and do work for cheap more American people would actually do something or else it wouldn't get done. and actually if you think that americans will get off there ars and do work when its already being done they won't. welfare only word that matters to people who don't feel like working and know that the hard work is being done.

The point is, Americans don't TRY to go for those kinds of jobs.

Maybe, but you do realize that these immigrants aren't doing it for themselves most of the time. Many of them send back 80% of their earnings back to their country, to their families. Having them work here is a mutual benefit. Of course, we paying our tax dollars for these people who's earnings leave the American money cycle isn't good, but honestly, does it look like we need the money?
CDK908 wrote:let's look at it this way. we are one earth. going to one hell. everyone own the land. they aren't illegal...
The logistics of simply ignoring people and leaving them illegitimate in this age is laughable...the government needs to tax the populace. If they don't, there's lost income that should be legitimized. If you work to make the "illegal" citizens legal, and do it efficiently, and then make it so that "illegal" immigrants don't have to get here by crossing borders, then it's better for everyone in the system.
Too much debating and getting mad for one day. I'm going to head off early so that my blood pressure doesn't skyrocket. Seeya all tomorrow on the intertubes.

nope people who actually work don't need the money but people who don't think they do. i understand they send money back to there family's and eventually bring them over.
