(Oct 11 07, 12:28)Thank you. An awful lot. I don't mind them personally. My family was in the restaurant business out here and we helped a lot of them, even gave one of them 2k so he could take his mother back home who had died. But the strain they put on the system is quite enormous and no one really knows what to do about it. I also know that they do send a lot of money home...so 20 million people sending money home instead of putting it back into our economy, plus running up unpaid medical costs = quite a dent in our economy. There was a sad story of this guy Juan who retired from one of our restaurants, super nice guy, sent home all of his money. Lived like crap so he could retire in Mexico. When he finally did go home he found that his daughter had spent all of his money. I feel for the illegals I really do, I can understand why they're here. But we need to figure out how to deal with the problems they cause.
Okay really...time to work!
