As a US citizen who is a child of immigrants and who is a citizen as a result of being the first member of my family to be born in this country, I find this repugnant and terrifying.

If this ever got any momentum, how would the rules apply? If you were born here to immigrant parents, would you be striped of citizenship and have to reapply? what if your parents are not citizens, but permanent residents with green cards?

Where does it begin and where does it end? This is ridiculous protectionism. And anyway, when is the last time you saw anyone apply for a job occupied by immigrants (illegal or not)? Who wants to bus tables, work at car-washes, mow the lawns of rich people? I'm sorry, but this immigration issue is a contrived effort to distract to easily distractable from the fact that the government is doing NOTHING to solve the economic problems in this country while making their buddies in the banks wealthier and wealthier!.

Just seal up the southern border. Problem solved.

If you continue to allow millions to come over illegally and allow all their children to become citizens our country will continue to go bankrupt.

How about these dumb asses focus on the problems we already have and stop looking for new things to work on?

We have issues with infrastructure, for example, that will make the country unsuitable for transportation within 20 years.

protectionism isnt stupid or anything its about keeping what little we have left.

it is a fact illegals are a huge drain on every single working american.


cause the simple fact WE DONT HAVE ANYWHERE ELSE TO RUN TO

like they can.

for me it is about the money because the more money liberals give them they take away from someone else whosed lived here all their lives and HAVE OBEYED all the laws.

and when they run out of money which they are THEY WILL RAISE YOUR TAXES.

and that affects every single working person here.
i dont see the logic ofpro illegals at all
