it takes two to mesh. losers
I didn't see much "meshing" into Native American societies from the European colonizers.
people from other cultures just don't give up their own. It is their children that decide the culture of the land.
There was a different culture and language established here long ago. I suggest anyone who doesn't like it to leave. No one is asking anyone to give up their native cultures at home but adapt to ours out in mainstream.
This worn out old argument about the past is getting tiresome since all those people are dead now and we aren't them and they weren't us. We cannot speak for what people did in the past nor are we responsible for what they did or didn't do.
We currently have 10% of Mexico’s underclass living illegally in this country. Most have less than an 8th grade education, are unskilled, and once here, give birth to children they cannot possibly afford. I do believe Mexico has a sizeable middle class, comprised of people who completed their education, and chose to postpone childbirth until they were either married adults, or at least capable of supporting their kids. Are you suggesting that most Mexicans living in Mexico are illiterate and unskilled?
...illiterate in English? Hell yes I am suggesting that.

No, illiterate in Spanish. It is a daunting task to try to teach them English. How do you teach a Spanish-speaking person English, if they can’t even read or write in Spanish?
Then why are state and national debts higher than ever before? If the illegals were paying then the government wouldn't have to keep raising the debt ceiling. Or worrying about how to assimilate them into US society.
And if they were a benefit, their own governments would try to get them back.
Wait, are you really blaming the entire deficit on the presence of illegal immigrants in our country?

Sorry, haven't seen the stats on illegals being illiterate in Spanish. Link?
True, so why would Americans want to sit back and watch it get trampled by mostly Hispanic illegals?
I don't know. Are you planning on legislating the purposeless details of your culture? I happen to be American, a "Hispanic" one. Are you going to attempt to make me live my life the way you live yours? because a legistated culture is a culture void of any true meaning. If "American" culture really is superior than it will show by its triumph. you are free to commit to your plans eitherway, I suppose. So how exactly is this going to work? seal up the borders? ban Spanish? decrease the number of "hispanic" immigrants by lowering the citizenship quota?
