This was a long time ago, in the 1980's as a matter of fact. The anchor baby scam has been going on for decades. Nothing pleases me more than being retired and in no way obligated to do anything ever for your spanish- speaking relative.
Competing with illegals for work is not easy. There were times I didn't know how I was going to feed the family. I hope you never have to go through it, it's not a very 'uplifting' experience.
We've been there too (((hugs))) my husband used to do construction, which as been totally taken over by illegals. Yeah it sucks to have to be competing with people who have absolutely NO right to be here.
If she's YOUR spanish speaking relative, I need only imagine what she would be like. No thanks. I don't need to hear about how the gringo stole her land in spanish.
I'm footing the bill too, and I'm not a blue eyed devil gringo. Its not just white people "suffering" from the "illegal menace".
I just cry about it less.
Man, I'd hate to have a Spanish speaking relative of mine have her baby at your hospital, lol.
Wow! My blue eyed devil gringo Grandpa and Great Grandpa who fought to make it so you can talk like that would be very happy to hear how greatful you are. Nice. Isn't that racist??? But I can't say that most mexicans are illegal. WTF????
Last time I checked 1/8 of the U.S population was compromised of Hispanics. How can we say that only Whites are footing the bill, wtf? 1/8 is pretty significant.
50 million of 300 million is 1/6, not 1/8, but I think her statement of...

Let the blue eyed devil gringo foot the bill!
was made more to reflect the attitude of those who are illegally taking advantage.

Trust me, I dont even talk about that stuff. I dont talk about this debate with people, I just get amused by the stuff that gets said on here.
I'm surprised you chose to be a nurse. Probably wouldve been more suited as a C.O.

It is but compared to the tax bracket they are in working minimum wage jobs it don't mean sh**!!!!
I don't even discuss politics with Hispanics, especially immigration. I will, and have, gotten called a racist. LOL!
I don't people really care that much. Hispanics, whites, Blacks, whatever. Most people are just trying to get by.
I never heard any of my friend go off on how they want to take over America or anything. Just trying to get by and make a buck.
People are more concerned with gas prices, food prices, stuff like that.
Immigration, and unfortunately the Iraq war, aren't exactly priorities for the average person.
But luckily, I paid only $70,000 in taxes when I sold my house. But yeah, besides that, and income tax, I'm not pulling my load.
