And, I believe the immigration laws are appropriate, (snip) We allow more immigrants into this country each year than any other country on Earth, including those countries where most of our immigrants come from. This mass influx is driving wages down and prices up. Our schools are overcrowded. Education costs are going up. Medical costs are going up. Home prices are going up. Land prices are going up. Food prices are going up. Crime continues to go up. Our overall standard of living is going down. At the same time, I don't see a single benefit for the average American. Can you describe one benefit for me or my family, Kim? State and Federal welfare programs need to be abolished. (snip) Why would you want to cut off the parachute put in place to help Americans? If you want to fix welfare, cut off the many thousands of illegal immigrants who are taking benefits from others. Next, get rid of the obvious bums abusing the welfare system. This two steps alone would cut the cost of welfare programs dramatically, yet still provide help for those Americans why really need it. There is no danger to US sovereignty. It may not be a US you like; but it is no danger of losing its sovereignty. (snip) Kim, we've allowed millions of immigrants into this country from areas of the world openly hostile to the United States, with no method to establish their views of this country and its people. After 9-11, this is clearly not safe for Americans. Can you be so sure it is not a threat to our sovereignty? This reminds me of an old joke that is perhaps not that far from the truth; an enemy doesn't have to invade today - they can just fill out immigration papers for their entire army. Blacks have almost the entire continent of Africa and Hispanics have almost the entire continent of South America. Perhaps you can explain why either group needs to expand to this continent, or why it is so wrong to resist that expansion. Unless we're prepared to spend lots of tourist dollars, they're certainly not rushing to open their doors to us. Dwight Stewart (W5NET) http://www.qsl.net/w5net/ |
