Immigrants founded this country. Georgia was an English penal colony until we kicked the Brits out. The south lost the Civil War. The hyphenated-Americans you list are not the enemy, they're your fellow citizens. They're not destroying our country, they're building it. Of all the human derelicts encountered in my 53 years, the vast majority were caucasions of European ancestry. What's destroying this country is political arrogance, economic greed, moral relativism, and cultural blindness.

Amen to that!

Well we did try our best at cleansing our gene pool, by exporting our "undesirables" to america, and austrailia. And it seems to have worked to some extent (as evident, that you lot have to put up with sharing a continent with buzzz )

wait until there are so many to do the menial jobs that every street corner and parking lot is full of them.
wait until there are 20 of them living in a single family dwelling.
wait until you the taxpayer gets the bill for more sewage treatment.
wait until the druggist tells you that he filled $750,000 in prescriptions paid for by the taxpayer for them a month.
wait until you pay for childbirth for the same woman every nine months.
wait until your children sit and rot in school waiting for non english speaking students to catch up.
and most especially i hope you enjoy the street gangs.
of course the bright side of this is your property tax will go down because your property value will be in the toilet.
been to miami lately??????

Well here in Uk, Americans are americans, no matter what creed or colour, In UK which is like a small island compared to America, we have every race creed and colour. as for immigrants as long as they work and pay there taxes, able to support themselves, I dont see a problem. But your system is different to ours, ie. We have the NHS, which enables people to recieve free treatment,Hospitals, Drs etc. This is paid for in the form of national insurance contributions, which is deducted from your wage packet. I understand you have to pay to see a doctor or recieve treatment in hospital, what happens to the people who cannot afford to pay?

[9000white]

no one can be turned away from a hospital that receives any federal monies--regardless of citizenship--whether they be illegal immigrants--or terrorists--or have money running out the kazoo from getting paid in cash and not paying any tax--if they are hurt while working for some contractor that doesnt pay workmans compensation--they still get treatment.the contractor gets his pockets lined by cheap labor then lets the taxpayer foot the bill for the treatment of the injured.that is just one of the bonuses the middle class American taxpayer gets from "immigrants made this country great"

[barmy_carmy]

But dont the contractors have insurance on there workforce? They have to here in UK. In case a worker is injured. That pays all the legal cost and health treatment.

It's not mandatory. Some contractors aren't even licensed. 9000 was just using it as part of an example, I think.
Generally speaking, everyone here is entitled to medical treatment regardless of immigration status. The taxpayers pay the bill ultimately, as is the case for welfare cases and every other type of indigent.
