It is not about anti-immigration. It is not about race. It is not about in-humanity.
it's the fact that they are here ILLEGALLY.
our taxes go towards them and their families because of this reason,
when you get a paycheck, and you see your tax deductions. you don't get happy. next time fucking realize that your taxes are going towards all those people.
i'm all for immigrants coming to this country, good for you.
feed your family, make a better life for yourself.
but i know many people who have immigrated here and went through everything to get their citizenship. and you know what, you people who come here and don't even learn the language and want to be a part of this country, but don't become a citizen. that's a slap in the face to everyone else who works just as hard here.
it doesnt' even have to do with being mexican,
it's every illegal immigrant.
they are just the magority and are trying to make it about race.
and this topic lately has been keeping me up at night, i've been called racist for my opinion.
what backs up me being racist? because i don't want to pay for people to live here who say they want the american lifestyle, the american dream. but do not learn the language. and do not apply for citizenship.?
i've seen poverty, been there. so don't say i don't understand. but when i was in poverty my family were citizens of this country. and my family has worked hard to get where they are today, to live in such a nice place. to send my sister to a college even if it is saddleback. i'm proud of them. and when i think of how they're taxes keep going up when illegals come into this country and don't apply for their citizenship it angers me. many people in this country are much worse off than me and my family as well and have to pay taxes for them. is THAT fair?
i could go on and on but the fact of the matter is that our taxes pay for every illegal person living off of this country and that is not right. they work hard yes, but so do millions of americans who can barely afford to support themselves. taking care of people who are breaking the law should not be another worry for them. hey even the rich don't want hire taxes. no one does. every single person with a job does not want their taxes raised and money they work hard for taken away. it isn't about race, it's about illegal immigration.
