Two certifiable IDIOTS!
Fanny has some comments about illegal immigration. Her pithy comments make a lot of sense. I frankly wish that some of the bleeding hearts, who want unfettered access to America by illegals, to experience the agony of having their identity stolen by an illegal using their stolen social security numbers.
Captain has one other thing to say before turning this over to Fanny. The crime rate among illegals is almost PANDEMIC in the West/Southwest. The fallacy of illegals as "contributors" is probably the most obscene allegation of the Left-wing lunatics promoting the cause of America as the world's sponge for the "downtrodden."
Fanny says:
I've been listening to economists, not political "talking heads." Let's approach the argument "But illegal aliens pay taxes too." Unless they have green cards or STOLEN or FAKE Social Security numbers, they cannot be on American tax rolls for either payroll taxes or paying income taxes. The only people who can pay those taxes are people who have SS numbers. That particular argument is a chair without legs.
The underground economy among illegal aliens who are paid less (under the table) and thus take jobs from Americans is essentially a rape of our economic system. They attend our schools and benefit from all kinds of "let nobody go without food or housing" programs in our nation as they ship a large portion of their ill-gotten income "back home."
Quite provably one-third of Mexico's economy is dependent upon shipping more and more illegal immigrants sending money "home." This is why the President of Mexico does almost nothing to stem the flow of illegals entering our nation and he is totally against "the fence" between our countries and border security for our sovereign nation. In fact, he was whining a few months ago about poor, Mexicans flooding back into Mexico.
THIS IS OUR HOME and we are in dire straights. We cannot afford soft-hearted good intentions in a time of such huge economical stress. We need to be strong-headed and realistic if we hope for our own fiscal survival as a nation.
