This land wasn't just 'up for grabs' as is so often taught in American history. Things happened as they happened, and we are where we are, but those 'founding fathers' didn't find anything other than a consitution for a country that was built on stolen land by murder of other human beings. And as they spread across the land they justified theft, genocide, and lies by the Christianity and the bible.

I like all people regardless of ethnicity or color and choose my friendships based on character of the individual. I do however, see the 'illegal' issue with a little different persepctive.
I am not illegal.

Both sets of my grandparents came from Ireland though Ellis Island.

There are approximate 40 to 50% of the people don't pay tax. They even receive money.

Our welfare state use 1 basic formula to determine if your eligibility to get welfare: if you can pay tax, then you are not eligible.

Yes I do. And most of the people I know who don't pay taxes are the moocher types. Some of them don't believe in some of the things that taxes go into and as a result refuse to pay them. In order to not pay them they work under the table so that they have no income to file.
