We just cannot win! Why is our president not standing by the Americans? I am so disappointed in him and everything he has done and it is not because he is black; it is because he can care less about the citizens of the United States.
California pays over 10.5 billion in illegal aid expenses including: housing, healthcare, food, and transportation. Over 3 billion of the California taxpayers money goes to illegal alien education. In total it is almost 14 billion in expenses that go to illegal aliens of California. If CA is in debt 19 billion dollars a year then why, why is 14 billion a year going to illegal aliens? Cant we contribute that to our own citizens education, or our own poor?
You want to say they contribute, yes they do. They contribute 1% of USA economy while accounting for 4% of the population--and most of that money IS OUR OWN!
Over 250 applications were turned into the Farm Workers Job ploy and only a fraction of those applications were given a job.
Dont believe me then look it up for yourself. Americans ARE willing to WORK, they are just NOT given the OPPORTUNITY.
If your undereducated then an illegal has taken away over 8% of your pay because of the competition. If you are educated then they take almost 5% of your income due to working at less wages.
25% of Americans fail high school because illegals lower the standards of education by teachers having to take additional time to teach them English.
THIS IS NOT RACISM--IT IS FACTS. LOOK IT UP FOR YOURSELF.
THEY REALLY DO US WONDERS DONT THEY??
The UN and all the above countries need to BUTT OUT!!! We believe illegal aliens do not have American rights, as they are not Americans. They simply cost us money we cannot afford, and we feel like we are in this fight alone!! We in AZ are looking forward to electing a President in 2012, because we sure don't have one now. He represents only those who agree with his socialist policies, and we never will!! Let's begin the process on NOVEMBER 2 to bring our country back to traditional values.
FIRST I DONT BELIEVE OBAMA IS OUR PRESIDENT? THUS MAKEING IT WHERE HE HAS NO RIGHT MAKE DECISIONS FOR AMERICA REALLY. ANY ELECTED OFFICIAL TAKE AN OATH TO PROTECT AND SERVE AMERICA YES? WHERE HAS HE DONE THIS YOU KNOW OF IN TIME IN SOCALLED OFFICE WHEN?>>>>JUST A LEGAL AMERICAN>>> THANKS>>>>
It is funny, in a sad sort of way, to watch what were once respectible institutions degrade themselves into mokeries. Does ANYONE *REALLY* gave a rats butt what the UN says or thinks any more? (Anyone...anyone...???) They are just not relevant to intelligent conversation and debate any more.
Got something to say?
