Illegal labor is a much bigger problem than people realize. If the

Mexicans are EVERYWHERE. MOST are illegal. The US immigration system has
imploded on its bureaucratic self.

This country has built up an infrastructure over 150 years. Millions of
Mexicans have invaded the US to get a piece of that infrastructure.
Booty isn't always hauled away by an invading army.


Exactly. It amazes me that people people can justify the concept if illegal
labor because it is [supposedly] keeping the cost of goods down. In the end
this is a bad thing... not only is this just not really true but like wage
and price controls it results in problems down the road. If you honestly
add up all of the costs (to every single working citizen) of providing all
the social services to this sea of illegal, like health care and educating
their children you would be shocked. This cost is not honestly being considered
as tacked on to just living in the united states.

We must also consider the long term effects to a society that literally
encourages the dilution of its existing culture. Immigrants years ago
generally worked harder at "becoming" Americans... learning the language
and becoming part of the American dream. This is much less so these days.

Personally I believe it is because these illegals are not required to
make any investment in America... they just show up, make money and get
free stuff. Being a citizen should be more like being a stockholder in
a corporation. If you are not willing to purchase any shares... well.. no vote.
