Free health care, free housing, free food, free education. Wish I could be so lucky.

Really burns my biscuits. I truly believe that if they come here illegally and reap the benefits illegally, any children they have here should NOT be legal EITHER!

Don't even get me started on health care (lack of would be more correct) for legal citizens.

ILLEGALS
I am so sick of this; it is happening weekly. We already had enough drunk drivers and criminals. When will we have had enough that someone builds the fence and rounds them all up? I do not feel sorry for the "separated families." We all know that if they missed them that much they would go back to be with them. The fact that they don't tells me that their family is not their priority, so why should it be ours? I formerly worked for the state in the medical field and a huge portion of the "patients" I cared for were illegals. We are all footing the bill for them and it has to stop. I feel like if you are over the age of 14 and you get drunk, drive without a license, and kill someone it should be a mandatory life sentence. In his case they should just send him and his illegal family back to Mexico and keep tabs on them so they can't re-enter the US. That is the only way! If we quit paying for their free healthcare and schooling, we could afford to police our borders and keep our country safe for all Americans.

Illegals
I think your view on this could also depend on the state you live in. My brother and sister live in California and are just livid when it comes to illegals and what is going on out there in California. I live in Michigan and have just not been as aware of the problem as they are. I feel like I have been working so hard to earn a living that I am clueless a lot of the time about what is going on out in the "real world". On the other hand maybe it's not such a bad thing to be unaware! All I know for sure is that I don't feel a whole lot of pride in being American lately - the war in Iraq that is draining us of beautiful young people who are dying over there and all the money it is costing. . . having no idea who I want to vote for in this election since I can't get enthused about any candidate . . . yeah maybe I better just keep my head down and keep typing . . . just had to edit out a word that started with S and couldn't believe it - not a swear, just a work that is synonymous with dumb! Yikes

This has nothing to do with identifying illegals......
There will come a time when you will be able to do NOTHING without this ID. The illegals will do anything they want, why do you think they're illegal? Any state that does not accept this ID card will basically be ignored as a state in this country, your country.

No money for illegals
That was such a good observation. They also buy up chunks of our property here, but if we "buy" there in Mexico it "reverts back to the government" after 99 or 100 years. If that is how they are to us, then I say no US property should be sold to those without citizenship. I think she should spend another two dollars an hour and hire Americans to work around her house. There are good American people out there who, like us, only want to make a living wage and these people are driving them out of employment.

just have to vent about illegals......sm
we had a 9-month pregnant mother and fetus that got killed this week in an auto accident. emergency section didn't save the baby. hit by a drunk driver who was 15-yo and illegal. he lied and said he was 19. well of course they are trialing as a minor, but you know what he was an adult enough to lie about his age, bigolly charge him for the age he wanted to be!!!!!!

WalMart also contracts out companies they know hire illegals. There was

not too long ago.
