The mess that is our country

 We have a congress that is owned by special interests and has not and will not do anything to benefit the country.  We have illegals just pouring over our border with Mexico.  And the only thing that congress does is point the finger at the president and accuse him of causing the problem when, in reality, this problem has existed for over 50 years and no congress has made an effort to stop it.  Nor will they.  They will not force enforcement of the immigration laws on businesses.  They will not allow HHS to even verify citizenship before benefits are granted.  And they step all over the states when they try to reign in the mess.  And my property taxes are going up over $200 to pay for the schools we have to provide for them.  That $200 may not seem like much to anyone, but my overall property taxes are, before the increase, almost $4200.  You would think I have an expensive house, right?  Maybe in the neighborhood of $250-500,000?  Not even close.  My house is valued at 189,000.  I will have to see because I can't afford the property taxes and insurance.  And you visit any school in my small town and every one of them is overerun with non-English speaking Hispanic kids.  And none of these kids' families pay a dime in anything.  No income taxes, no medicare taxes, no property taxes.  Nothing.  So it comes out of my pocket.  Where is the fairness in this that a citizen that has paid taxes all her life and now lives on a fixed income has to support Mexico and Central America?  Where is the fairness that illegals get more rights than I do and more benefits?  I can't afford a trip to the dentist for a bad tooth because it will cost over $400.  Yet these kids get the best of care, food stamps, free schooling (free for them, not me), tanf, WIC, and everything else out there that the citizen can be forced to pay for.  At some point, and I am afraid it will be too late, the citizens of this country will take their country back, kick out all the leaches, legal and illegal, and make this country what it once was.  At least, for the sake of the upcoming generations, I hope this happens and soon.  We have stolen from our children and grandchildren and we are letting these thieves into their house and allowing them to steal everything from them.  This is so wrong.  Our citizenship is worth more than this.
