Miami is a blue-collar metropolitian area. Many immigrants, low wages, and low skills. Does anyone expect these jobs to be around forever? Yeah right! -Outsourced, by 2015! Who exactly is going to be paying for their welfare/unemployment? -Not me!!


I don't understand why you keep letting these lower income people invade our country. They are degrading our quality of life. It's that simple.

Salary only makes up about 10%(or less) of business expense. Paying more money to employees will not cause disaster. Studies show that. So why the heck don't we just use Americans?


This is about greed. This is about the rich getting richer by taking advantage of the poor.

you dont need to rant so much. try to keep the conversation logical and rational.
nothing is going to happen as long as our government turns a blind eye to immigration
your right its about greed. if you want to talk conspiracy theories read up on how many are believing that NAFTA was one step towards a grand unification of canada, america and mexico for financial and purposes of power. they want to make us all the same country like the EURO.
i feel that america is already getting extremely fed up with all of this and revolution is around the corner.

Let's hope it eventually cuts off the "irrational exuberance" that has supported unrealistic real estate prices in Florida. It seems like only a major economic disaster would deflate the Florida real estate bubble.

"After I invaded this country and degraded your quality of life"

we will be heard AMERICANS look at this .what she speaks of is war against us ,here in our own country.Sunrico made similar comments in a thread about gangs and Americans have come out and shut her up.Do it again do it now.If we dont end this now we are only pushing this mess onto our kids.Wake up .Tell the pc police to shut upo ,you are not a racist for wanting to preserve our country.Tell that illegal how you feel at the grocery store and on the street corner.Look at the quote above and see that she and her culture are declaring war on you and your family.Dont let the pc police influnce you stop this madness. get organized and take the country back.

SHE HAS DECLARED WAR ON THE UNITED STATES>STAND UP FOR OUR COUNTRY .dont hide like sunrico would have you .do something .we are with you and we will do this .im not letting my children do it !Take action and please tell the pc police SHUT IT!

sadly ive worked with plenty of people in miami who were honest about the fact that their whole goal was in getting ahead by cheating the system.
what i find amazing is how my old self prior to moving here would say what i say now is racist but you have to become racist to survive here to a degree because you have to generalize and expect certain ethnicities will be mean to you in certain ways.
