I don't need to research how to legally enter this country D8TA, I'm a LEGAL taxpaying citizen.
With that said, I don't pity you for ignorance...but your flagrant stupidity and lack of education. Woooo! A "legal tax paying citizen", sure exempts your status as moron. I don't even have to argue the rest of the tripe in that paragraph, as you've demonstrated clearly you have a lack of reading comprehension skills. Go back up, and re-read untill you understand the point of: There are people from countries who have NO - NONE - NADDA way of LEGALLY entering this country.
well as a matter of fact they do indeed pose an economic threat.
A thousand pardons! I didn't know you and/or your children pick the multitude of crops in this country for .29 cents and hour! What a FOOL I am! Yep, these (illegal) immigrants are sure impeading on your job security! Oh wait...I'm sorry, your job at McDonalds! A thousand pardons again! I'm sorry, now I realize that your cashier-burger-flipping job is going to be taken away by Joe Q. Haitian. A thousand pardons! ( Please, insert the thousands of other "menial" jobs/work that precious "legal" citizens of this country wont even touch to feed their own families...because it's "beneath" them ).
See? Where the stubborn attitude of "I'm a legal tax paying citizen" vs. "I've researched and studied for YEARS" contest is going? Good.
well as a matter of fact they do indeed pose an economic threat.
and
They trample immigration laws in the mud on their way in and us taxpayers foot the bill.
Yes, and the millions spent on people in need, survival, etc...certainly outweighs the BILLIONS spent on:
- Corporate welfare
- Non-legitimate foreign aid
- Politicans cushy lifestyles
- Over budgeted military spending
- Thousands of fleecing research programs.
- Inflated and corrupt domestic contracts with various construction and public service needs
- Inflated and corrupt international contracts with various construction and foreign service needs
- Corporate bail outs
- List goes on and on and on...
Guess that REALLY puts a hamper on your lifestyle. By the way, you catch the Knicks game the other night...and how much did that computer and internet connection cost you again? Enjoy that beer the other day?
We can argue this till we are blue in the face. There will always be the people who will go to any lengths to argue the point of not helping out a fellow human being, even if it doesn't necessarily fit exactly whithin the "rules". There will always be the people who will be in this country, whispering the words: "Mine, mine, mine...not yours...mine."
Bugs you doesn't it? Bugs you that you and many other had to jump thru hoops to get where your at, eh? Bugs you that there may be some people who come here, illegaly, and they get a "helping hand" or a "leg up". Seems unfair doesn't it. Then again, you didn't have to take a risk in coming here did ya? It was already available for you to partake from. The cake was already on the platter for you to feast upon. Bugs you that there are people like me, who are willing to invite a few people thru the back door to have a bite of the meal.
We will always be here, to fight for those who come from places of no-opportunity. With this war, we are winning...the best you can do is complain about it. At least we are having it OUR way. :)
Who's the dickhead here?!
It's evident in your bathroom mirror.
And for my hoops, at least I remember the difficulty to get where I'm at today. I don't mind sharing, or helping those in a position with no options.
At least I'm doing something about it.
What are you doing?
