how many illegal immigrant designers are lurking out there???

i really don't care either way.
just the mentality is kinda queer. they showed hispanic owned shops open late last night here in dallas, so those that wish not to purchase goods today could do so last night. and the stores were packed.

dumb comparison, that's entirely different and you know it.
that's just one county in CA, btw, don't forget those in Texas, NM, and AZ.
pretty lofty right? that's per 100,000 mind you.

yeah no shit... trying to claim 256 million is a joke when Iraq's the biggest money sucker of them all.
I don't need to start an Iraq war thread. It is all relavent. Shutting down immigration is only a patch... it wont work. Its about education and investing in it. Just like condoms are a patch. It will never fix all problems that are a sexual thorn in this country's ass and the amount of money we spend to try to control that mess. It's all about education.

i still say it's wrong to punish them. all they're looking for is a better life. i'm an immigrant myself (still on a green card after 18 years tho), and i know the bullshit hurdles you have to get over to get here. And that was waaaay before 9-11 (and i'm from one of the desireable countries).
punish the people that hire them, if the immigrants can't find work, they'll go home and/or stop coming.

i don't blame them for coming to america. mexico sucks/ i grew up in a border town, seen the poverty. never really understood the mexico pride thing though.
their govt could care less

It's a huge problem, and needs to be addressed - but they do add value to the economy. Imagine how much construction, restuarants, agriculture and manufacturing WOULD cost if everyone got "union" wages - entire industries would shut down.
You think that Taco you get for lunch for $2 is a deal - imagine if everyone's wages along that entire line - from the guy that picked the peppers to the guys who packed, unpacked the trucks and the lady selling them got a "real" minimum wage? You're Taco is now $10 baby...think about it.

In DC last week, INS was hanging out downtown asking people who looked hispanic for valid papers, if you didn't show you had to step in the back of their van and go god knows where.
How sad is it we're now copying hitler's strategies?

taco lady makes and sells her own tacos. 4 coolers full ov them in the back of her mini van. we are close to her last stop and she is usually almost out by the time she gets to us. when she breaks a 5 or a 10, the wad she pulls out of her pocket is at least 100-150 cash..
taco lady got it going on

Isn't that what they cost at "chipotle" already?
- PacoTaco0
chipotle is an american invention... owned by macdonalds of all people.
Pffffft... keep it real homie

It's just stupid to hate on the immigrants, somebody in our family got off a boat at some point, for whatever reason, legally, semi-legally or illegally.

what are you talking about???!!!
- PacoTaco0
I too was a border baby... I was in El Paso last month... I can only imagine that city (and all other border cities) would come to a complete halt if this legislation went through.
You guys should check out this B-Movie that came out not too long ago "A day without a Mexican"

Just look at China and Japan, Japan HAS a huge problem because they are running out of workers. China will have the same problem in a decade or two (that whole one child policy is going to economically backfire)..Europe has to bring in an incresingly hostile islamic population to do their shite work.
We should be happy we have these guys to come up here and keep America going - sure there's tons of problems - but nothing we can't handle.
That said that whole Spanish National anthem idea is just dumb...(yet fun to watch how the guys who sport confederate flags on their cars seem to be the ones who get their panties in a bunch about it - um cognitive disconnect..hello..??)
