I have never been to the US but I can tell you I have a lot of admirations for the USA because they have allowed many *******s from India to emmigrate and get employment opportunities.But still then these *******s have'nt learnt anything from the Americans."He is a jerk.

Unearned "entitlement" (by every individual) is the cancer that operates foremost in killing the very body that supports us.

Illegal immigrants do jobs that Americans, COULD do, but they won't. Most 30 year old U.S. citizens will not even APPLY for a $10/hour job as a cook at a restaurant. And what makes people think that if the illegal immigrants didn't fill the position, that somehow the wages would be raised. These companies would MUCH rather higher an American citizen who speaks English, but the problem is that Americans would demand to be payed more money than the average illegal immigrant would ask for.

If people want to stop the flow of illegal immigrants into the country, then we need to start seeing some of our very own citizens get off their asses, stop collecting unemployment, and go work as a cook for $10/hour.

What we need to do in the meantime, is stop demonizing the men and women who come to our country for an opportunity to improve their lives and the lives of their families. They are not here for an easy ride, on the contrary, they come here to work some of the most undesirable jobs we have to offer, and they DON'T complain about it. Perhaps a few U.S. citizens could learn a lesson in hard work and modesty from these people. They come here, save their money, and don't spend it on luxurious things like cars, electronics, etc. They just work hard for their families. Why can't we do it, if they can do it?

And for the record, a large amount of illegal immigrants pay the same taxes as we do, and they will never receive any of that money back in the form of social security, medicaid, etc.

Legalize drugs in America (now tell me again why I can drink myself into a stupor night after night, while smoking myself into an early grave, but I cannot legally eat a marijuana cookie and watch an old movie on my TeeVee) and the Mexican cartels will go the way of the Zapatistas.

Sovereign nations should take responsibility for their successes, failures, cultures and political systems. It gets very tedious to constantly hear Mexico blame its problems on the U.S.. Any place with the great personal freedom you speak of has no excuse for its failings (any more than we do). Any place blessed with the wealth of natural resources and agreeable climate that Mexico has should be a first world country on par with any other. If its not, that's the responsibility of the Mexican people.

Oh pleaseeeee, you havent looked deep enough. We have many friends of all different cultures. But, i wonder if you perhaps have latent prejudices, illustrated by you comment "freakin white people" might you be part of the friending problem?

If you could get beyond the color of a person's skin you might make some real friends. Martin Luther King had it nailed. Too bad the World didn't take his comments to heart.
