    I do complain about the wall and about the cost of war in iraq as well, don't assume that I appreciate having to pay for anything that I don't support. And I do have compassion for illegal immigrants, just don't appreciate being in a sense stolen from, do you? Would you like it if I took a dolar out of every one of your paychecks even if it was just a dollar........not only that, if you were forced to give me that dollar every paycheck when you can barely afford your own bills?

    i really don't complain about the part of the taxes that i pay going to health care and to education. I don't neither pretend that all the taxes that i pay must be used for me: they want to use them for immigrants? Fine, they maybe need help more than me.
    I complain for taxes paid for wars, for huge politician wages, etc

    What about for big screen TVs and Lowriders or in other words, the taxes you pay for the ones that are completely abusing the system? I've had friends in families in the bracket and they just joke about it..........If they need help, give them help, no doubt, but there are a LOT of them abusing the system.

    There is wasteful spending no matter where tax dollars are spents, let's not get into a debate about that. Let's debate about this bullshit fence.

    ok please understand that immigrants are taking NOT ANYTHING from YOU.... nothing...not one penny... NOTHING... NOTHING.. NOTHING...i can stress the importance of NOTHING enough here... NOTHING!

    its a Napolean Bonaparte tactic to take our mind away from 86 deaths in OCTOBER.... WHICH MEANS THE EXACT OPPOSITE OF NOTHING :)

    the thing i hate most...is that this isnt an important issue and watch.. people will vote on their candidate based on immigration?? when all they have to realize is that its all a big lie.. they dont hurt the economy or any of us..it actually helps us.

    It is to keep out the illegal immigrants and keep them from stealing our prestigious jobs as chicken shit scoopers.

    Its not a joke - its politics.

    a fense.. they can't keep pre-teens off the school basketball court.

    The fense is just another example of this administration using tax payer money for their political campaign.

    and I didn't read this whole thread...so I'm sure someone's already brought this up....but who the hell is gonna build this fence? Live in Texas....99.99% of all construction in Texas is done by hispanics.....and most I'd be willing to bet are illegal.

    Perry Homes is one of the biggest campaign contributors to the Republicans..and how do they make their money???? Illegal immigration...ironic huh?

    Soooo why are they building the fence...cause they don't want to go after all those republicans that are hiring them....to get rich...sad sad sad.

    Hope the Hispanic population gets out to vote.

    I think they are all trying to get up here to Canada.
    They have to go through hell to get to heaven I guess ;)

    I've seen a lot of American Flags around. Which can mean only one thing... they are immigrating. Quick put up a fence!

    This is missing the point though. Because what if those Americans who moved to Canada did it legally?

    do you reallly care if they have benefits??? worry about yourself and stay out of peoples business...leave these people alone god dammit! they have been through enuff!!..


    Yes, I care. I don't like them being eligible for Social Security benefits that I have paid into my entire life.

    I don't like them getting free medical care, when I pay $400 per month for insurance and still have huge deductibles.

    Well actaully most of the cost atributed to illegal immigrants is spent on their American-born children. So the money is not specificall going to illegal immigrants but to US citizens.
