They feel like they can afford more babies, mostly because they can get much higher paying jobs in America than they had at home.

Knowing every kid they crap out will be eligible for a variety of social programs, there is no incentive for them to make responsible decisions in terms of reproduction.

Just as I said. They come here illegally and give birth to a lot more babies here than they would in Mexico because of all the welfare freebies they can get for them.

No, because our cost of living is a lot higher here. You can't work a minimum wage or less job here and support numerous childen on your own. They know they can do that here though because of the government subsidies available to their U.S. born children.

That's why many of them have more than one job.

Just like your great grandparents when they came from .... wherever. They work more than one job to pay the rent.... and work (literally) their way up the socioeconomic ladder. Next thing you know they live down the street from you and have a mortgage. Just like you.

Really? How did the Spanish discover a place where people were already living?

No, it was Christopher Columbus who was the first European to discover it and he was Italian. Prior to him the so-called natives discovered it after migrating across the Bering Strait and they weren't Spanish.

He was a damn servant to the Spaniard Empire, and was aiding and abetting a military campaign that lead to the death of millions of people.

Christopher Columbus sailed for the Spanish empire, duh. And yes the Indians were here long before and maybe the vikings. But still the first definitive Europeans were the Spanish. Although, Italians, Spanish, they're both Latins.
