Two or three decades ago it was inconceivable for a Mexican illegal to protest in the streets and demand rights. I remember how it was. You had to learn English, you had to work hard and you had to assimilate. No one had a problem with that and many of the Mexican businesses you see today were created by these people. They are now citizens and still work hard. What happened? Word got out that as long as you had lots of kids, you didn't need to work.

These evil corporations that are constantly referred to are actually just legal arrangements for sharing the profits/losses among the shareholders. Shareholders are oftentimes wealthy investors or foreign nationals but also consist of large pension fund money (of "working folks") and individuals like myself who work 2 jobs and put my extra money into stocks to plan for my future. I am an owner of various corporations, which makes me an owner of America. I guess I am the face of evil & tyranny

@wowzinger God! you're a fucking idiot, did you even understand his point? Ohh fuck you're a moron. He's saying Illegal immigration is good so long as it stays illegal. Mexicans that ocme here illegally don;t qualify for citizen benefits, are you that stupid, get you head out of your ass you lummox. Get out of this country and go back wherever your grandparents came from you asshole. this country belongs to the native americans and whoever their descendants are now.

@S955US84 Leave then, because your forefathers were surely immigrants. Leave, you anglosaxon asshole, leave the land to who it originally belonged to, native americans of which the mexicans ARE DESCENDANTS, go back to ireland or England or wherever the hell your grandparents came from you moron.

This is what is happening in the U.K immigrations are not coming here for jobs there mostly coming for the welfare benefits

@Json7401 That's why the system works so well. Many investors are so detached from the operations of 'their' company. So if your company exposes third world workers and children to terrible working conditions it's just something abstract that is hard to imagine. Even institutional investors are far removed from these events. The overriding concern is profit. You know far more about stock price performance than how the profit is actually being made.
