Default To All Legal Immigrants, something to think about...

The next time you cheer for a boat load of illegal immigrants, just
remember, one of them may be taking your job for $3 less per hour.

Illegal Immigration hurts us all.

Who cheers at boatloads of illegal immigrants ?

But on the humane side does what drove them to risk life and limb on a
dangerous venture like that not deserve some consideration ?\

Well, on human level, consideration is needed.

But on a realistic level, the United States cannot afford to welcome every
disenfranchised immigrant from the world. We are trying to deal with the
heavy level of immigration we have now.

Miami, does cheer. Believe me, I know all to well.\

This is too funny. You can barely write, and you obviously haven't
learned how to use punctuation. And you call yourself highly educated?

And yes, because you are illegal alien, it *does* mean that you can't
have good jobs, or any jobs for that matter. It is *illegal* for you to
have *any* jobs period if you are illegal.

Please check your numbers and think again.
First, most US immigrants benefit the US economy. Immigrants collectively
earn $240 billion a year, pay $90 billion a year in taxes, and receive $5
billion in welfare.
Second, the percentage of immigrants as compared to the total population
even decreases.
Yes, there has to be an immigration law but now it seems the solution to
immigration became a problem on its own.

Yes, I can tell you are highly educated. Now that we know you are an illegal
alien, I hope you are found and deported for breaking the law. You see, that
it is why it is called ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION... Many people seem to forget
that.

It is of course more complicated than that.
Economic studies (e.g., by George Borjas) show that the net effect is nearly 0.

I have never supported illegal immigration anywhere. I obey almost all laws (so I drive fast sometimes, so shoot me) and I expect others to do the same.

But this "stealing our jobs" crud? That's the sort of garbage I expect to hear from the politicians back in blighty. That's part of why I am here, I got sick of all this crap. Politics based on envy and greed.

Let me share with you a story of a friend who was a sysadmin and a damn good
one at that for a local company in S. Florida who has 2 kids and a wife. He
was laid off and replaced with what is believed an illegal immigrant from
Brazil who works for 50% less of what he made and is willing to sleep above
the computer room.

It is that kind of crap that angers people. Do not tell me it is political,
it is bullshit is what it is.

Were you ever a citizen of another country? Think back to that time. Ask
yourself whether when you lived there you would have welcomed people coming
into your country and trampling your laws. And if you complained to them
about their presence they made some rationalization about how they were
entitled to break your laws since they did good, cheap work. Or perhaps they
had some other (in their eyes alone) good attributes. And suppose they told
you tried to enforce your laws despite their alleged "attributes" but they
still refused to respect your laws. Would you be happy about that?

Is the U.S. not entitled to self-determination?
