Comments on: Is The Costly Border Fence Worth It?

U.S.-Mexico Fence Is Catching Fewer Illegal Immigrants, But Costing More

[libsrweak]

mexicans are pretty much satisfied with thier ''parasite'' status..

While researching my family history I ran across The Chinese Exclusion Act, passed May 6, 1882. The article can be found at Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. It put a freeze on Chinese entering the US.

A law similar should be written for present day and days to come.

Go away mexicans.You have used our social security numbers to get credit illegally.You will go to prison and never return on American soil.You are here illegally short and simple sweet.You are criminals and the American people know this everyday we look at you,you mexicans are not welcomed here.Everyday we see you here on American soil,we wish you were gone back to your country and let your own lazy president take care of you.He does not care if you survive.This is his problem not ours here in America.Go away!

Be a lot cheaper just to shoot people as they tried to cross the border illegally.

"But factor in life-time maintenance and congressional researchers say the price could top $50 billion."

$50 BILLION WITH A "B"!* Ay carumba!

*How many weeks in Iraq does that translate to?

Until the economy of Mexico & countries in Central America improve dramatically, it will never stop. Will Mexico be like the USA? No. Are whites & blacks going to pick vegetables/fruit, clean hotels/offices/businesses, do landscaping, etc, if these immigrants don''t?

Look what happened after Katrina? They had to bring in Latino workers coz most of the so-called poor locals didn''t want any part of the clean up. Guess they weren''t that poor.

Times are a changin pal--I only deal with one company that has "press one for english" and I let them know every time I call, that that is offensive.

Most other companies now, will have you press another button for non-english speaking people and it didn''t take long to get that changed either.

More changes coming---tune in!

Sorry chici baby--my grandparents came here from Europe early 1900''s--they PROUDLY LEARNED ENGLISH--worked hard (there were no free social programs then--and they wouldn''t have used them if there were) and became citizens.

You can no more come here and demand everyone learn spanish, than an American going to any other country and demanding they learn english---get used to it--learn english--show that you can be "self-supportive" it isn''t going to get any better. And in case you didn''t know--companies hire immigrants because they work for less money, not because they''re better workers.
Get over yourself--we aren''t catering to you.
