I know this man who is 66 years old and has gone back to work because he can't live on retirement. On the very day that I met him, he informed me that he was not Mexican. He is an American of Mexican descent. His words exactly. I have also heard the stories of his family being migrant workers. He told me that the farmers paid the illegals 40 cents per hour and if they wanted to work, they had to accept the wage the illegals were making. See a trend here? The businesses want the illegals here for 1) cheap labor and 2)to hold down wages. After Katrina, there were government contracts to be awarded and the contractors had to hire American citizens in order to get those contracts. They did and promptly fired them after the contracts were awarded. They fired the citizens and bussed in illegals from Mexico and our Republican government did nothing. Illegals can and do draw welfare, food stamps, medicaid and get free meals for their kids at school all on your tax dollar. They also work for cash and pay no taxes on this money. They hold down wages and this is what the businesses want. Ever wonder how they register their kids in public schools when a citizen has to produce a birth certificate, a social security card, shot record and proof of residence in the school district? Seems the illegals get a free pass here also. Do I sound bitter? Well, I am. I pay my taxes and always have. I have never gotten anything for free. I resent illegals breaking our laws and nobody cares. No one cares that we, the taxpayer, are being used, cheated and stepped on every day and the politicians just lap it up. Anything to satisfy the businesses. Screw the taxpayer.
