    Here's a better question. Why not deport all the lazy SOB's sucking welfare dry and let the honest hard working illegals learn English and take their place as citizens? We could still deport the good for nothing illegals as well. I know several Joses that I wouldn't mind calling neighbor and many more so called Americans that I wouldn't want within 100 yards of me or mine.

    They were doing many of these jobs. The problem is that the darn mexicans have lowered the pay scale to where an American cannot afford to make a living doing the same job anymore...we don't live 30 to a house...or in these shanty towns the mexicans have built for themselves.[V]

    We all know the Mexicans have invaded. They do alot of jobs no one else would do. But a thinking question???? Why didn't the Blacks/ low income whites do them same jobs the Mexicans are doing now , instead of paying Welfare to either of them. Welfare still exists


    An interesting observation and one that has often crossed my mind as I look at the men standing around the Home Depot parking lot looking for day-labor; not a white or a black face to be seen, they are all Hispanic.

    How about a new welfare plan. We'll call it "The Freedom to Work Act" Welfare payments will be given for a certain number of months. After that nothing, nada, Zilch.

    Wasn't that how "The Freedom to Farm Act" was intended to work?

    mexicans came into thos country because blacks were quitting jobs when welfare came around. blacks got welfare, quit their jobs and mexicans came in and took them. but dont kid yourself, MOST mexicans and illegal aliens in this country DONT work.

    Do not fool youselves. No Mexicans, food bill will go up, maybe 25%, because of raised labor costs. No one else will work for the present wages. Not even you. Or will you?
    DEA says it catches about 10% of the illegal drugs coming in. Ask them about the weapons that are coming in with this 10%.

    weapons what weapons are you in the right place. If they are armed they can be shot.

    Anyways yes welfare should be a lesser contributor it should only put you back on your feet.

    Many reasons, economics mostly. Many employers hire illegals under the table. The employers skirt many expensive rules and regulations plus don't pay taxes on income gained. The employees don't pay taxes either. Employers that do obey the law compete at a disadvantage and many go out of business or take what leftover business they can scrounge.

    Welfare is a better standard of living than minimum wage. it is a symbiotic relationship between government bureaucrats/politicians and welfare recipients. If the government was able to separate the lame from the lazy the lame who welfare was intended for would live better lives and the lazy would have to go to work. Then the welfare department would not get as much funding, the politicians would not be able to exchange gifts of welfare for votes.
