Quote: "However, at the same time, I also feel that they are taking jobs from American citizens b/c the factories would rather save money by paying aliens less. By the alien's standards, the wages are outstanding, even though most of them make in the neighborhood of only $12 an hour."
That just reminded me of a news report, probally was just local in florida, but there was a woman who applied for a job at a company (hotel?) in america, and was turned down because, get this, she did not speak spanish.
The Job? Maid Service. The company claimed that she would be unable to mingle with the other maids and this would affect her preformance how? Naturally she sued the company, but it shows how our economy can be destabalized because of all this immigration.

51%, and the way that works is basically this.
I am a no-brain democrat, or a worthless republican. Lets vote for our parties and not give a crap about what the guy says!
Please do not start with politics with me, it is in my opinion that the Federal Govenment is too strong and should be replaced with a much weaker version.
Take the simple fact that Bush is racist twords homosexuals and is now FORCING an amendment that the Federal Govenment has no buisness making. The amount of people this law is designed to affect is too great to constitute ANY statistical agreement. Do I CARE that 50% of the people are homosexual haters? You still have 197,867,067 people who aren't, the number is far too large to impose any national law upon them.

Actually, you can. New research funded by the National Institute of Aging found that older beagles fed a healthy diet and given plenty of exercise performed nearly as well as younger ones on cognitive tests. "

Quote: "while in france on holiday, the americans that i have had the misfortune to be sat next to in restaurants have always insisted that the waiter speak english."
You mean the ones you noticed, I made that distinction before and I make it again. People aren't all the same, and not everyone insists the same.
Finally, this does not pretain to the illigal immigration of mexicans who REFUSE to learn english.
We all have our inner noob. Join the NJL, we have more fun!
I believe society is flawed; our notions on life, on child rearing, stem too far back to be of relevance in this day and time.
