1.Illegals do jobs that Americans don't want. Americans don't want to pick fruit for a living or clean someone's house.
2. Wage reduction has more to do with greedy cooperation and ha a little do with illegals.
3 &4 and 5 I think these have more to do with the sucky economy that Bush left. There are a lot more Americans who winded up on welfar when they economy tanked.
6. The increased crime has more to do with society deteriorating . Blaming illegals for that is overreaching. In fact many illegals try and stay out of trouble because they don't want to get caught.
7,8,9 , 10 and 11 you can't be serious?
12. I don't where you live but I live in Philly which is a pretty big city and they've actually had to close a lot public schools because there weren't enough kids to fill classes. People are actually having less children.
13. See point 3
14. What cultural erosion? Americans really do not have a culture. Immigrants are at least bringing some flavor to our cultural.
15. Americans use to much natural resources period. Deporting illegals isn't going to solve the issue. As long as we have folks denying global warming in this country, people will continue to overuse things like oil and gas.
16. What diseases? I know whopping cough is making a come back but that's because you got people thinking vaccines are bad.
17. We have yet to have a Syrian refugee or any Arab immigrant for a that matter attack us. Orlando and San Bernadino terrorist attacks were committed by citizens of this country. Even the attacks in Europe have been committed by citizens and not refugees.
1. The standard liberal line. it was squashed 12 years ago, and repeatedly since then, by CIS, who did a study that showed Of 472 civilian occupations, only six are majority immigrant (legal and illegal). These six occupations account for 1 percent of the total U.S. workforce. Moreover, native-born Americans still comprise 46 percent of workers even in these occupations.
Many jobs often thought to be overwhelmingly immigrant (legal and illegal) are in fact majority native-born:
- Maids and housekeepers: 51 percent native-born
- Taxi drivers and chauffeurs: 58 percent native-born
- Butchers and meat processors: 63 percent native-born
- Grounds maintenance workers: 64 percent native-born
- Construction laborers: 66 percent native-born
- Porters, bellhops, and concierges: 72 percent native-born
- Janitors: 73 percent native-born
Not only that the toughest, dirtiest, and most dangerous jobs are done by Americans (about 100%) (Ex. Coal miners, firefighters, troops in Iraq & Afghanistan)
2. FALSE! low wages are one of the reasons why illegals are here. They boost profits for greedy corporations.
3. 3, 4, & 5 have nothing to do with Bush. There's just less tax$ coming in because of the low wages & off books work. Doesn't matter who's president. Remittance $$ loss occurs no matter who is president or was. We've been having it since Kennedy was president. Welfare drain same things - nothing to do with Bush.
6. You're talking ridiculous. Any time you ADD more people to your population, some % of the ADDITION is criminal, and you get ADDITIONAL crime. Simple as that. And every illegal crossing the border EWI has committed a crime, just doing that.
7-11. Why wouldn't I be serious ? Any time you ADD more people to your population, you get more crime, pollution, traffic congestion, schoolkids, hospital patients, etc.
12. Maybe in Philly people are LEAVING. Here in Florida, classrooms are so packed kids are going to classed in TRAILERS brought in to fill up the overflow.
13. Again not Bush. A large % of illegals come her not for jobs, but for welfare. Young women come here in the 8th month of pregnancy, have the kid on the American side of the border, and then help themselves to a lifetime of benefits$$$$$ courtesy of the American taxpayer (the anchor baby racket)
14. HA HA HA. Typical liberal response. Liberals have no sense of American culture. Total ignorance. Ever hear of Rock n Roll ? (AKA Rock music) the Blues? Bluegrass Music ? Jazz ? Poets > Walt Whitman, Robert Frost, Bob Dylan, Emily Dickinson, Edgar Allen Poe, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Longfellow, Ezra Pound, TS Eliot, Carl Sandberg, WH Auden, Langston Hughes. etc. Then there's graphic arts, filmmaking-movies, TV shows, etc etc.
And there is the American English
language. The "flavor" as you call it is foreign languages which is harmful not helpful. ever try to tak a can with a can-biies who speaks no English.
NATION -
15. Nice dodge, the simplefact is there are finite amounts of natural resources (oil, fresh water, etc) The mor epeople you have, the less resource you have per capita.
16. Ebola for one. Then there's the Entero Virus 68 brought in by Central American kids. Dengue fever, leprosy. and many others. This is the stuff liberal media OMITS routinely, to keep you ignorant.
17. The 9-11 killers were all here on visas (most from Saudi Arabia). Hesham Mohamed Hadayet, the LAX shooter was an immigrant from Egypt. There are many more. I have a list in this forum somewhere. I'll try to dig it out. More info liberal media OMITTED. That's why you don't know.
