Immigration: Bollocks

immigration,border,illegal,vicente
Seeing as I am married to a LEGAL immigrant from England, one would say, that I am a bit of an expert on immigration policy, and how it's done. I've been through it.

One would also see, as the spouse of a LEGAL immigrant, why I would be really, really f-ing sick and tired of ILLEGAL immigrants sponging off the system and getting more benefits than my husband. I think tired, lame excuses, like,"they do the jobs no one else wants to do," or "our country was built with the blood, sweat and tears of immigrants," are pathetic.

These types of reasoning are in fact a complete load of bollocks. This country was built with immigrants, back when there was a scattering of Indians around, and some Spanish immigrants, who had stolen the land from natives themselves. Fine, this was also before nukes were in existence, and crazed religious fanatics could get their hands on WMD's, and actually use them. We don't need more poor, huddled masses, we've got enough here already, thank you.

As to these illegal's "doing the jobs no one else would do?" Bollocks. Use the overcrowded population of local prisons, to pick the f-ing vegetables. Take the cheese-eating-government-welfare-receiving, lazy asses out there to sweep the streets, clean up after messes and "do the jobs no one else would do." Make them earn those checks.

If the government stopped making it so easy for our own citizens to become complacent, and lazy, then we would cease "needing" outside "help" in the form of underpaid, often poorly treated, illegal immigrants.

Take for example tax breaks and financial aid to families, many illegal immigrants, who have 5 kids, when they can't even afford to take care of themselves. I say, cut it off. One kid, you get a break, two, it's less, 3 even less, 4 you have to start paying.

Collecting disability? Sorry for your pain, but can you prove it? Nope, them, back to work. I personally know two people on disability who are milking the system. They make me mad. And frankly, we aren't that close these days. I just got tired of subsidizing their fun.

If we close the borders(BOTH OF THEM) completely, built a f-ing 100 ft. high, 30 ft. deep wall, and hang a sign on it saying "closed until further notice", and remove EVERY SINGLE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT. I assure you, we'd find money we didn't know we had. Health care for our own people suddenly more cost-friendly,aid for senior and social security benifits would increase, better schools, and a whole hell of a lot less unemployment and government welfare vampires. Homeowners on the borders would feel safer, their land would be free from drug runners and polluting, trash dumping border crossers. Our police, border patrol and reserves could be used in more fruitful ways. And just think of what that would do to the drug trade.

Oh, and....Vicente would have to stop telling us what to do, and do something about his own people for a change.Wouldn't that be refreshing.

Just my two cents.
