One day I will . I'm seeking right now, probably through a software company sponsorship. That doesn't mean I don't like Canada, I love Canada and I'm grateful to this country. It's just I'm seeking a new opportunity.
The border and legal public identification is compromised. And it's not just by illegal Mexican immigration I might add. There are a ton of nationalities here illegally. And was George washington sure that they could make it when they embarked under his presidency. Ya' Damn Skippy! The employment argument only holds water because according to all accounts (yours indirectly) some of their most dedicated workers are ~ HERE!!! They have currency. They have a knowledge, and land, and a desire to have better. That's what makes an economy improve. Go back, open a business. FIX MEXICO!!! How is it that in Africa, with a bunch of machete no less, can the public cause unrest yet the Mexican populace must flee to America? It takes balls to cause change against your government. Awfully funny they can come here and march and cause discord. That can't be done at home? Go march on Mexico!!! And yes, they are investing in hiding. In Chicago, and Texas, there is a concerted effort "to evade the capture at all costs mentality" being promoted. The press has run stories (in Chicago) that one in every three mexicans that you see daily are probably there illegally. They CAN maximize human capital in the country that they love, GO FIX MEXICO!!!
I am a concervative but I still want Mexicans here, becouse first of all I like my food cheap, and there is no way in hell I am building my own house or GOD formid cut my grass. WE need mexicans to do the bad jobs becouse lets face it white trash is too good for it in their eyes and blacks are just lazy ............................................................not all though dont get me wrong I AM NOT RACIST
And during that time, they need to stay there and plant the roots of long term stability that will be necessary to provide a permanent change. They need to embrark on the learning curve of taking responsibility for the conditions that are TO COME for their own land! MEXICO!! They are not here for civil rights fights. As an African American, I have some real issues with this new line of join the war planning that Mexicans are taking. It's not about synergy at all. They are illegal. They are volunteering for American slave wages and tyranny. All of which must change when they are Americans. No more discount labor you see. You'll have to do as African Americans are asking. Pay a civil wage! Just opens the gates for the next round of cheap "ILLEGAL" labor. And while Presidente Fox and his charge should be addressed, he can't properly if the folks with all the real skills, talents and abilities have fled to America. Next we'll be told that we need to provide them a way to vote back in Mexico, while they are here. After all, they are still proud Mexicans!!! You would not dare ask them to give up their heritage and become (YUCK!) Americanized simply because they reside and work here!
Sorry, I misunderstood your post. The fact remains that, for whatever reason, most hospitals are barely scraping by. They simply cannot afford to treat large numbers of people who can't or won't pay. Of course, they retain full liability for any malpractice claims. Spanish language media supposedly give tips to illegals on how to get free treatment. This issue points up the enormous costs that illegals impose on our society. Those who look only at the cheap labor side miss the more important part of the picture. We can absorb a certain number of poor, uneducated immigrants without serious problems, but not a flood.
:eek: I shake my head, and rest my case. This IS where we are in America I fear. In spite of you, we will succeed.
My biggest complaint is our catering to the language. When I go to another country I expect to have to have my face buried in a Foreign/English dictionary. I don't expect to go there and have them hire english teachers to teach my children and put up signs next to their own so I understand. Especially if I plan on staying and being a citizen.
I see what you mean. I just am clueless as to why hospitals cannot simply be given more taxpayer funds. The average income there is twice what it is in some nations that have excellent health care systems. It is hard to think of an answer for the problem... because if you prevent them from getting treatment, or else say 'treatment but have to leave the country', they most likely will just stay and get sicker (considering how many of them are willing to risk so much to get here). Then may need even more costly emergency treatment when on the verge of death. Plus the bad publicity - we already get a bad enough rep for our border policy. Indeed the pros and cons aren't as simple as getting a few basic goods/services for lower prices.
Milano "I see what you mean. I just am clueless as to why hospitals cannot simply be given more taxpayer funds." The US is bankrupt, bust, just printing worthless fiat money. We spent our capital on the oil war in Iraq. That's why they call it deficit spending, only the US can never repay this deficit, IMO. I don't give a damn about our reputation, militarize the border! A wall backed up by the National Guard! I agree with an earlier poster.......the only thing that would happen if we got rid of all the illegals the only thing that would happen would be all prices would inflate accross the board, it would simply get passed down the line.
