Where do you stand when it comes to an immigration reform
We must have reform for those who go through the system legaly, We must honor them by not giving entitlements to those who are not U.S. citizens.
Our government is caving to the demands of criminals. If we entitle the millions of illegals to free benefits our economy will eventually collapse. The people flowing into this country today are not the productive, hard working upwardly mobile Europeans who settled and developed America to her current greatness. We are facing a very different demographic, they are takers, not makers.
Patriot Quest and Waldo Numbly said it all and quite well. I could not agree more. BTW, I am the grandson of immigrants from Italy - my grandparents came here LEGALLY and worked their butts off to support their families. They didn't sneak in across the border and then get government "freebies" they didn't deserve. One other thing - "Immigrants" are people who legally immigrate to the United States - illegals are just that - illegals.
Thank you Alex. My folks were from Italy also. My grandparents never took a dime from the government, they never protested, never hurt anyone, they simply worked hard and paid taxes until they died.
It doesn't bother me and it will eventually stop. The people from the former-Spanish provinces in those more equatorial hemispheres seem to adapt very well to US culture. The southwestern US (and Florida) are now experiencing the same type of immigration influx that the US northeast and midwest withstood more than 100 to 150 years ago. It's no different.

A broken system. Why isn't the government doing more? Whether people agree or disagree with Immigration Reform there needs to be a compassionate solution. It's a human rights issue...and it's a crisis.http://www.thepetitionsite.com/843/643/ … of-summer/

And I have an opinion on why. I would love to be wrong, but I just don't see this ever happening. IMOReason why:Illegals in America = Cheaper labor cost.American Business is all about profit. When a business can pay less for labor then the profits rise so that is the way it will go. Illegal workers...

Greetings all, check out this article and if you are so inclined share your thoughts. I think that this Trump guy is a bull in a china shop and is the reason the GOP has so little credibilty with Hispanic and, in general, minority voters. They keep on bringing the same clowns to the big top!...
