I don't know. I imagine you could probably google that & find out.

There's an old saying, not sure who said it, but it's so very true (in my humble opinion):


If you're 20 years old and not a liberal, you don't have a heart.
If you're 40 years old and aren't a conservative, you don't have a brain.


Cheers to whoever it was that said it - I'm betting on a 40+ year old conservative!

How does importing poverty help the existing poor people? Please don't dance around the question.

I really have not much of an opinion on immigrants so there's really no dancing around the question going on.

As bad as they are, the other party at least won't screw the poor 50 million times.

But you think importing 50 million poor people to screw our poor people is perfectly fine?

Do I think that? Hmmmm, perhaps you can point out where or when I said or thought that.

Let's put the laws, the constitution, and the country aside for a moment and pretend they don't matter. By importing 50-70 million illegal immigrants, mostly poor, it could take a huge chunk out of the already small pie of welfare at a time we won't even be able to pay back the current debt!

Not to mention, those illegals will compete with the poor for all the low end jobs. Wait until they become legal, they will ask for $15/hour. Why adding 50 million to the already saturated labor pool?

How is that in anyway helping the poor? Why would anybody vote for the Democrat? This is like to screw every poor person in the behind with a spacecraft.
Just wait.. the illegals are going to college on our dime and it won't be long till they infiltrate the white collar world with cheap labor. The elite don't care.. the want cheap labor in all fields , blue collar and white collar.. it is coming folks.
