Why I ask is because I will never understand why people let things that have nothing to do with them get under their skin. Just like all the people that want to get pissed off and rant about Black History Month. Why worry about it if it doesn't affect you? Later, QD.
im sure you are gonna bash me for replying to this but hell, thats never stopped me before.
i understand how people including myself can have a problem with it. only reason its so close to home for me is because my step dad owns a landscaping business and i used to work for him during the summer and saw how crooked most of his illegals treated things. medicare for example they get fake SS numbers and attempt to get there paychecks split up if they get over a certain amount so they can keep these priviledges. almost everyone of them claim 10 dependents so the most they usually pay in taxes is around 30 bucks a week; one of them got 6000 dollars back in income taxes, that math doesn't add up to me. it strikes me as odd that even if they are illegal citizens they are still treated as a legal citizen if it comes to suing, claiming taxes and such. one thing that really got under my skin and i'm sure its not the first time it has happened is one of his illegals hit some people in a car killed 2 of them and left the scene before the cops came. he left for mexico the next day, because he wasnt a legal citizen he got off scott free. then theres the whole brings down the economy because they send most of their money back to mexico thing, or they take us citizens jobs because they'll work harder for less and can still make a living simply because they live 10 deep while they are here for their usual 10 year stay plus the whole tax b/s. now don't take me wrong i dont have a problem with any race, i just dont like people who take advantage of the system and us citizens have to foot the bill with higher than what should be taxes(Fairtax law FTW). just my
