Before blaming the immigrants about taking your jobs, start looking at the big companies. How many cars are made in America? Clothes, devices, etc. Nearly everything is made abroad. Your iphone, smartphone, tv, Nike clothes, football gear. everything is made in low wage countries. IT helpdesk has been outsourced, finance has been outsourced, all to low wage countries. getting a pizza will be outsourced as soon as they figure out how to 3D print that to your house. Don't blame the poor Jose,Pepe or Juanita who is trying to better there life in good old USA. Your ancestors did the same 200 years ago, or maybe even 50 years ago. I dare you to buy the more expensive item when it's made in America to the cheap counter part made abroad. That's the big issue here. Not Mexicans taking jobs from Americans.
The corporations have us in there pockets and they don't mind that we blame someone else instead of looking at the real issue.

I have not sympathy neither compassion as a tax payer and legal citizen the "33 million" illegal in the country once they find themselves as citizens the majority will start getting into the welfare and give away train, because illegal immigration is nothing but importing poverty in the nation.
So if people think that in the last 4 years the welfare system has grown incredibly, wait when the amnesty bill is passed and you have millions more getting into the system and qualifying.
I guess some forget that in America is more people in welfare and social programs that they are within the hard working class contributing to the tax revenue system.

Yowwwzaa!! I thought this was going to be a bad joke as I read it, but now that I finished reading the OP, I wish it had been. That was the most racist thing i've read or heard in 15 years! - and I was briefly in Texas shortly after 9/11.
I'm not talking about not understanding why amnesty for illegal immigrants would absolutely not have a positive effect on job availability for unskilled workers, but WOULD shrink the economy dramatically, making jobs more difficult for all people to obtain ("Even White people!" - as a clueless, extremely-racist-without-realizing-it person would say.) i'm referring to the disgusting level of disrespect spewed toward African Americans, and the demonstration of a mindset believing A) Black people are can't get jobs, B) and can't have a two-parent household because they can't get jobs, C) and so, because it is easier to have one-parent in a household (huh?!) D) when you're just a lowly, unskilled Black parent (is that "All" of "those people" or just "most" in your mind?) E) you just carry on and raise the child yourself, even though he or she will become a criminal.
I mean, seriously, read your opening post, its so ridiculously over-the-top full of ignorance and racism, it is truly disgusting. I'm glad there is free speech in the US, I just wish people who would say such things as this weren't US citizens.

...and sending that money right back to Mexico.....Hell, the Mexican government gives them maps to get in the US. Sounds like an economic invasion to me. But wtf do I know.
I believe that this nation is the last hope of Western civilization and if this oasis of the world shall be overrun, perverted, contaminated or destroyed, then the last flickering light of humanity will be extinguished. I take no issue with those who would praise the contributions which have been made to our society by people of many races, of varied creeds and colors. America is indeed a joining together of many streams which go to form a mighty river which we call the American way. However, we have in the United States today hard-core, indigestible blocs which have not become integrated into the American way of life, but which, on the contrary are its deadly enemies. Today, as never before, untold millions are storming our gates for admission and those gates are cracking under the strain. The solution of the problems of Europe and Asia will not come through a transplanting of those problems en masse to the United States.... I do not intend to become prophetic, but if the enemies of this legislation succeed in riddling it to pieces, or in amending it beyond recognition, they will have contributed more to promote this nation's downfall than any other group since we achieved our independence as a nation.

A lot of these jobs Americans won't accept. Many companies want to pay slave wages and Americans want a good paying job.
