Great article lissiye. Glad you had the guts to write this. I am not surprised by the comment made by your co-worker. He spoke the truth. The good ole USA is good enough to support those workers and their families and give them whatever they want. Sad isn't it?? Get everything given to you and have the nerve to say that you hate the hand that's supporting you. WAKE UP AMERICA!! When is our good ole government gonna stand up and do what's right? Looks like it won't be anytime soon.
I found several quotes from Barbara Jordan made by her years ago. This is what we still need!!
Credibility in immigration policy can be summed up in one sentence: Those who should get in, get in; those who should be kept out, are kept out; and those who should not be here will be required to leave. ...for the system to be credible, people actually have to be deported at the end of the process."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- There is no obstacle in the path of young people who are poor or members of minority groups that hard work and preparation cannot cure.” Barbara Jordan quote
It is far better to deter illegal immigration than to play the cat-and-mouse game that results from apprehensions followed by return followed by re-entry. Our goal should be zero apprehensions -- not because aliens get past the Border Patrol, but because they are prevented entry in the first place.” Barbara Jordan quote
It is both a right and a responsibility of a democratic society to manage immigration so that it serves the national interest.” ~ Barbara Jordan
Against it!! It's a shame and so sad that no one can take care of themselves anymore. The government or someone else has to do it for them. What's next, banning big macs, ice cream sundaes, tator tots with cheese?? Come on people!! I have to use the restroom. Can someone wipe for me??
