segovia Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 Folks,This issue is pretty simple to me. Something has to be done or things will only get worst.Here is my take...1. Respect the immigration laws of the United States --Follow the documented procedures for becoming a legal US citizen --Being here illegally for years does not grant you automatic citizenship2. Learn the English language3. Pay taxes4. Hold Corporate America and Mexico accountable --Fines for hiring illegal, cheap labor --Tax the money wires going back to Mexico5. Restructure our social services and end the blatant abuse6. Enough with the flag waving. You are in the United States. If you miss you country so much, go back home. There seems to be a lot of confusion with the demonstrations regarding culture and nationalism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

west20th Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 who's behind the immigration rallies...The article starts out with the popular buzzword "the left-wing media". That's the clue for me to exit the article. No critical thinking there. Just blame the "left-wing media" bogeyman. They are behind all of this countries problems don't you know.Ooops. Correction. The article starts out blaming the "leftist media". Same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pineda Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 Skip all the rhetoric, if you will. The part that got my attention was the prediction of 100,000 people demonstrating in Dallas streets on April 9th. I sure hope that number is overblown.
