		<description>Why is it that, anytime the discussion over Illegal Immigration reform comes up, the keyword &quot;LEGAL&quot; is always conveniently left out?

While the United States is a country of Immigrants, all who came before, entered our country by following our laws.

And now, those who chose to break our immigration laws, feel they have earned the right to protest and march in an effort to change our laws and allow them a full amnesty.

In any other country, especially in Mexico, illegal aliens are detained by other citizens and turned over to law enforcement officials, imprisoned for breaking those laws, and eventually deported to their country of origin.

Currently, and since our National economy has failed with 14.5 million US citizens currently out of work, the argument of Illegal Aliens doing the work that Americans refuse to do, goes right out the window. When it comes to putting food on our tables and a roof over our family&#039;s head, American citizens will do any job, even if that means picking Lettuce or Apples.

We, as a Nation, can no longer afford this so called CHEAP LABOR, especially since US Taxpayers are forced to pay for their FREE entitlements to include HEALTH CARE, FOOD STAMPS, WIC, Rent Subsidies, and Education costs for their anchor babies.

Suffice it to say that, Illegal Aliens need to go back to THEIR COUNTRY and force THEIR GOVERNMENTS to provide them with the ability to earn a just wage which will allow them to provide for their family&#039;s needs in their country.

Jumping to the front of the line ILLEGALLY while others endure the legal process of immigration to America, and then protesting the laws we have in place, is an insult to every legal immigrant who ever passed through Ellis Island, and made this country great!

By the way, FREE EDUCATION in the US is not a right, but a privilege. And that privilege is paid for dearly by every American citizen who made huge sacrifices to purchase their homes, and now, make even bigger sacrifices to pay the outrageous property taxes which support our school systems, grades K-12. Don&#039;t even go there with the expectation that, any Illegal Alien should have the right to a FREE COLLEGE education, again at US CITIZEN&#039;S Taxpayer expense.

As to Give us Your Tired, Your Hungry, Your Poor?

Thanks anyway, but we&#039;ll pass! We have more than enough of our own US Citizens to take care of now. Try Canada!</description>
