    elcubana says: "i understand that we all have to work...but we have alot more options"

    The only option we all have is to move down from the best paying job we can get. Would you like minimum wagers to also have that option?

  4. thats the problem with young people today, they expect to start out with big wages, theres a sense of entitlement. no, they start out at minimum and it builds up over time. Or you start with 8 bucks an hour and then 5 years later, after a few raises you get to 16$.

    elcabong: So now we are starting to get to the heart of the matter. Anything which you don't consider to be a "good" option, is really no option at all, eh? So, when you tell us people have no choice, it is really a bald faced lie, they do have a choice, but one that you don't find palatable. You could go back any time you want. In fact, I would encourage you to.

    so lets see.... a man risks his life and his families life to cross the florida straits; hhmmmm I wonder why someone would do that ( they could die from all sorts of things one being dehydration ) on a small vesel sometimes no bigger than an inner tube and finds himself having to care for a family but has no experience in the english language...what are his choices for work around lets say the miami area?? or would you rather he stay in his country where him being a doctor pays him not enough to feed his family in the black market..a family who hasnt seen meat in lets say never or chicken in the last 3 months..

    would you say you have more options than say this immigrant when it comes to a paying job??

    although they can go back anytime to live under those conditions many people risk their lives to earn min wage here in USA where it is the only choice they have that is better than the choice they have back home...can you get that through your fucking head... :D

    I guess you have no children or family that you need to take care of..so you can sit back with ur fat lazy ass playing xbox saying we all have choices... hahahahahahaah

  10. I think it's pretty clear. Illegal immigrants need to get the hell out. They can come back in legally.

    They are spitting in the face of anyone who has patiently gone through the steps to enter the country in a welcomed manner.

    Why would you even think you should have any rights in a country you've invaded?

    Unless you're fleeing from war or horrible political prosecution there's no excuse for entering illegally and staying.

    I know I sound harsh, I realize there's a human side to this. But then again look at all those suffering in Africa. They are dieing by the droves every single day. I'd say they deserve to be admited more so than most of the illegals today. Replace those looking for a better life with those looking for just to live.

    There's always someone more in need, more deseperate, more deserving.

    If anything the immigration laws need to be updated so it's more balanced, to accept people from all over the world in equal numbers.
