The Democrat platform is to use people for nefarious reasons, and to hold them up with taxpayers money while undermining the taxpayers with them.
The Republican platform should always be to accept legal immigrants within a healthy number ratio, in order to have a nation that is exciting, interesting, colorful, and beautiful.
We have that now, and we should continue it.
We should allow only temporary workers to do specific jobs (not illegals), and when the seasonal work is done, then they should happily go back home.
Two problems with that: For one, you are advocating US dollars leaving the country; dollars that should be in American hands. Two, when they do work here, they undercut wages of American workers and that's certainly no help either. Our middle-class is shrinking fast enough as it is. We don't need anymore help in that regard.
Against our desire, we are slowly becoming a bilingual nation. Our foreign friends are more of a political tool than an asset to our country.
With more immigration, we will become a bilingual nation, and eventually English will be the language spoken in the past.
I'm sorry, but I don't want to see these changes just so I can buy a jar of pickles for $1.58. Remember that I have to work with these dangerous MF's. They are driving 75,000 pound vehicles on our roads and can't read or understand a word of English.
