My views on illegal immigration
I am of the position that IF Big Republican Businesses can hire illegals and make immoral profits, they are the firsts we should slam in jail.
Did you know 53% of our CROPS are harvested by illegal immigrants? Quick spit out that carrot harvested in California by an illegal working for a Republican Businessmen who is a subcontractor for another Republican who is another subcontractor..........
YET we don't think twice before reaching for that juicy steak slaughtered by an illegal that you can afford right?
How about that gallon of milk MOM?
How about that pound of tomatoes DAD?
IF you come to ANY subdivision check the Construction Companies. CHECK their crews. So how is it that we live the American dream for the most part? We buy a house because houses are AFFORDABLE right? Why is it that only some of us netting over 100,000 are not the only ones with a house? how is that the guy making 25,000 also owns a 150,000 dollar house? Hmm, queer thoughts huh?
IF YOU ARE SERIOUS, then BOYCOTT EVERY FRIKKING restaurant(Chilis, BJs, Applebees, MCDonalds) who have subcontractors who have subcontractors wh ohave subcontractors with illegal crews.
How about that lawn care service?
How about your Mom and Dad who may own a small farm?
So YES I think we need a change but dont be so hypocritical next time you devour that Steak.
ASK THE question" Hey Manager, was this Steak slaughtered by an AMERICAN worker in an AMERICAN factory with an AMERICAN WORKER"?
OR
do the same when you go to Walmart and ask if the gallon of milk came from an American cow who had her tits squeezed by an american worker or was it done by an illegal worker who is NOT here to rob or blow bombs but doing the dirty stuff that needs to be done so we can have a better standard of living.
Now that is what Jesus would do?
Then come up with feasible practical ways to combat it. I believe in plurality and IF the bulk of the people want a wall and vote for it, then that is how a democracy will work.
But I won't vote for a wall. But I can live with it because I think thanks to my wife's income we can afford a 30 dollar steak(it is not good for us anyway). BUT THINK THINK, WHAT WOULD JESUS DO?
My diehard Caucasian Republican neighbors use illegal maids and lawn care companies with illegals.( WE USE AN AMERICAN Man with an ALL AMERICAN CREW to mow our lawn).
Come check out the construction crews and ask their owners which party they vote for and what their political views are. ALL OF them almost say CONSERVATIVE, Christian Republican. TOUCHE'
I of course part of the reason is that capitalism has FAILED in Mexico along with Catholicism which doe not promote birth control because it views that as a sin. So the dilemma of poverty and more poverty combined with jobs here in the US are all reasons for it. But then What do I know? I am a Macaca!!As Jesus said "Let those without sin be the first to cast the stone".
I SAY DO NOT EVER EAT OUT IN NORMAN AGAIN. DO NOT PAY 7.99 for a RibEye at Walmart. INSIST ON PAYING 25.99.SO on that rant here is a superb article writen by an AMERICAN.

By Ruben Navarrette Jr.Special to CNNSAN DIEGO, California (CNN) -- A reader wrote in to complain about illegal immigration, not exactly a rare occurrence. He was concerned about his tax dollars paying for services for illegal immigrants.Ruben Navarrette Jr.: If you hire illegal immigrants, don't complain about what they costing you in tax dollars.Never mind that he is probably being subsidized by the very phenomenon that he refuses to subsidize. And I'm not talking about the price of tomatoes. If his town is home to a hotel, restaurant or other business that relies on illegal immigrants and then pays taxes and pumps money into the local economy - money that goes to pay for police, fire, sewage etc. -- it will wind up benefiting Mr. Don't Use My Tax Dollars.The reader offered a scenario -- "Where you hire people to clean your toilets, they decide to stay in your house and they bring friends. You end up paying for their schooling and other privileges."You see the problem: "Where you hire people to clean your toilets." Hmm. These people are here illegally, and yet you hire them to clean your toilets, reserving the right to bellyache about them and what they're costing you. It's the first act -- hiring illegal immigrants -- that sets the rest of the story in motion. I have a solution: Clean your own toilets, or at least make sure that those who clean them for you are in the country legally. Or, shut up already.Sometimes you need to give it to people straight. I wish that former Mexican President Vicente Fox would have dished up some straight talk to CNN's Wolf Blitzer during an appearance last week in "The Situation Room." There to promote his new memoir, "Revolution of Hope," Fox fielded a question from CNN's Lou Dobbs delivered via videotape. Dobbs wanted to know why the Mexican government can't come up with policies that reduce poverty in Mexico so it doesn't have to continue to export its poorest people into the United States. Watch former Mexican President Vicente Fox talk about immigration with Wolf Blitzer »It's not that simple. Mexico has now had just seven years of democracy under the rule of Fox's National Action Party -- following on the heels of more than 70 years of corrupt governance at the hands of the Institutional Revolution Party. The United States has had more than 200 years to get democracy right, and it still has to work out the kinks now and then.Blitzer asked Fox to respond to Dobbs and asked why so many Mexicans want to come to the United States. The host suggested that it's because this is a country of immigrants.Again, not that simple. Oh, it's true that the United States is a country of immigrants. But in this case, what matters is that this also happens to be a country full of people who hire illegal immigrants. There is only one reason why so many Mexicans want to come to the United States: because there are so many jobs waiting for them here.Some Americans still prefer to blame Mexico for illegal immigration. Of course, why wouldn't they? That sure beats taking their share of responsibility for it.Ruben Navarrette Jr. is a member of the editorial board of the San Diego Union-Tribune and a nationally syndicated columnist.
