Carol's not the one whose confused pdq. She's spot on with her assessment but it's much more than that. It great to blame part of our economic woes on Mexican 'grints' but here in the Northeast we have non latino grints that far out weight those that have a different skin color. In the construction tades alone there has been a huge influx of Irish, Poles & others who because of there shin color we hear nothing about yet they are needed for our industries as much as Calf, Fla & Texas needs there's. Let put it out there, were they're needed & can be hidden it's ok but where they can't be hidden & are unwanted lets cast the focus on them.
The Bush corp would love to have this country blame the 'grint' instead of the war for it's woes. At 10 billion a month for the war, with the rising casualty rates from war vets & their medical care, yes the medical system is not only overloaded but in the coming yrs it'll burst. If the government would make new tax laws reguaring outsourcing thee would be much to gaining employment levels to handle more than the 'grints' alone could fill & e might as well educate them too because we aren't educating our own & we're gonna need some with intellegance & we might as well keep them healthy too because that's another thing we're not doing for our own & we're gonna need some healthy bodies if we gonna need labors.

Immigrants are not the county's woes. They are not taking our jobs, they are not draining our public service systems, they are not killing our medical systems & they are not depleting our educational systems either. That's the spin & feed from the top, they seem to be doing very well at the moment.

Gas at $4 a gallon & the oil companies are making higher profits than ever before, make no mistake about who's doing well & why, they want to open up every goofer hole to exploration & then go green in 20 yrs from now after we've allowed them to rape us from every direction when we should have stayed in the direction of the 60's. We will be going on 60 yrs behind in our energy policy, is that because of immigrants?

Our poor poor educational system is being dismantled. It's getting harder & harder for poor & middle class kids to get an education. Loans & grants are being cut, vet benifits are being shaved, the costs of a yr of schooling is costing as much & more than the avrage income & schools are recieving unheard of donations & gifts. We are not supporting our kids, we are failing them. The thought that the US school system is 17th among industrailized natons is shameful. Is this the fault of immigrants???

Our medical & health system is also failing. The Drug & Insurance companies are falling all over themselves with their profits yet we the victims are dying & paying through the nose for the pleasure of a burial & a stay at the hospital. Don't start with the hospitals, if they go along with the insurance & drug companies they do just fine & they get an arm & a leg to boot, sa long as they stay in step, no, immigrants a problem here either.

Jobs, ya, everyone wants a good one, get in line but you won't be getting behind an immigrant they are not in line for your job or the same job. Get in line & wait till your job returns from overseas. Get in line for a green job that the government doesn't want you to have quite yet because we're not quite done in the fossil fuel sector yet. We're not quite done with outsourcing yet.
