As a Vet, who's wife is a legal immigrant all I can say is that it is the illegal that is driving this argument. All you have to do is stand in line (without expecting a hand out), fill up the forms, prove you intend to pay taxes (oh yeah a strange new concept - paying your own way); but NO you refuse to do that and then bitch when we (taxpayers) hate to pay your way. Get legal or get out!!! it is only fair to those that are legal.

As a mexican I totaly agree with kicking illegals out of this country. Why should they get special treatment? its mexicos job to take care of their own people. Since when did the USA become a babysitter for mexicos people? Illegals should be protesting MEXICO not the usa. Richest man alive cant even take care of his people?

i paying super high taxes illegals are getting earned income credit from the government up to $5000 every year and single americans have to pay for it in states where they hide amaricans have to pay high state taxes to accommodate illegals the republicans are try to cut out Earn Income Credit for illegals they should not be getting money like that to wire to that low class country.

@gnowb16 Less than 2% of all illegal aliens in this country work in agriculture or meat-packing plants. Yet all you read about is how hard the Mexicans work and how Americans won't do the jobs Mexicans do. No one in favor of the illegals ever reveals how few of these "hard-working" people are doing backbreaking work. They want everyone to believe all Mexicans do is slave labor. Well, in my neighborhood illegals drive new SUVs and Harleys. Hard to pay for on slave wages.

Wow, I was expecting to see a Swastica at the end of the Video. So they pretend to allow our Government to expend 10 more money is creating Police States, Advertising Campaings and to destroy the principle of this nation.

By legalizing 20 billion ppl all of then have to pay Fines, Fees, and later TAXES. $1.4 Trillion and going up in Debit and Deficit, It's a big load that our childrem wouldn't have to deal with alone.

Warrior0818 we wouldnt be in this problem if people did not take advantage of the low cost immigrants, reason there are hardly any Americans is because they cannot be abused with out the owners getting in trouble so they are not hired.

As for Roman3125 so you would rather have these immigrants work like slaves and payed as such for such hard work for your own convenience, how despicable. I'm sure you would also advocate for child slave workers to also purchase cheap clothing.
