We've turned into the American Sheeple

[F L E S H]

Immigrants are incredibly important to the economy, they do all the shit jobs that need to be done that Americans don't want to do. It's not like they're taking all the well paid office jobs is it? Either way, what difference does it make whether people come into the country through a border or if they are just born in America? Either way they will take up a job.

Yeah, but it's fun to blame your worthlessness on The Other.

Illegal immigrants should be paid the same wages as citizens.

It was probably better when America was a Bristish Colony. A lot of hemp was grown here then, if Im not mistaken

If you guys were born in Mexico wouldn't you want to come to the US?

We pay a lot more taxes now than when we were a Brittish colony. Also we were also growing hemp for making ropes, I thought as later as ww2 but might be mistaken

[motoman]

We were immigrants as well, unless you are american indian, the mexicans were here long before we were. Sort of ripped off their land as well, remember the Alamo.

woah.. I got half way through reading this thread and I was gonna just give up and post the same link

Anyway, maddox is totally right.. Immigrants aren't taking anything from anybody! They're just willing to work harder and for less money than you. If that bothers you, then here's a hint: If you apply for a job that pays 20 dollars per hour, and an 'immigrant' gets it because they're willing to work for 18, then you should either be willing to work for that or less.

What I don't understand (and this is something I don't think I'll ever understand) is why do people think they own a piece of land just because they were born there? Americans think they own America, English people think they own England, Yugoslavian people think they own Yugoslavia. Well, that's bullshit. The Earth is (or should be!!) a free planet. The Earth belongs to itself, not to anybody else. We didn't make it, we didn't build it, and we certainly don't own any of it.

One more thing: When I tell people that I disagree wholeheartedly against armed forces, war, 'Defence', etc, they usually say 'But we need to be defended, blah blah blah, wah wah wah.." to this I reply "Well, if no country had any armed forces/military, then no country would need any armed forces/military". I know this will (probably) never happen, but it would be the ideal situation. Just because the Earth is such a fuck up i'm not going to start agreeing with armies and war, etc.. (I'm going off on a bit of a tandem here; i'll get to my point)

This is how I feel about immigration. If the whole planet had no boundries, or if every country had an 'open border', then there would be no need for immigration laws, and there would most probably be alot less of this racist they're-stealing-our-jobs attitude. Just because that isnt how things are, it doesnt mean the situation we're in ts right. Quit being so fucking nationalistic. There are people in the world less fortunate then you.

PS: This wasnt directed at anyone imparticular, unless youre one of the people it was directed at. Im stoned off my ass, and half asleep but cant sleep, so nothing im saying probably makes sense. Wibble kashpunty flargamj.

Yo-

Illegal immigrants shouldn't be allowed in this country anymore. They cause taxes to go up by crowding public schools, making more books and etc a necesity.

And then they bitch and moan when they say they can't get financial aid for college or anything. Well Jesus Christ you illegal immigrant fucks, you're ILLEGAL! If you really want to go to college, have your parents get documented. Or if they are too lazy to do that then you better bust your ass all through high school.

And Ghost toker - we need to have an army. Even if every country out there dissasembles their armies, there will still be outlaw renegade terrorist groups out there, ready to fuck you up.

peace

I would say what ghostoker ment is that it sucks that we have to have armies.. That their are threats on our own personal welfare even though there shouldnt be!
