> no citizens are paid under the table? Proportionately far fewer, obviously? What? Are you going to honestly try and argue in good faith that per capita, people already breaking laws with no legal means to work are paying taxes at the same rate? Either way: it doesn't matter! > who pays bills of citizens w/o insurance that are rushed to the emergency room? Guess what? - and this might be a hard pill to swallow: we don't owe foreigners anything. Your argument distills down to: "there are some citizen lawbreakers, too, so a few more shouldn't hurt!" > you sure about that? Social security among other things didn't exist, so, yeah, I am very sure about that. > We're all the same people, stop hating. Not wanting to finance unskilled lawbreakers at the expense of my own people is not "hate" - sorry! | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

> we don't owe foreigners anything This isn't true, it's a pillar of the USA to harbor refugees and welcome immigrants. It's our entire history. It's our entire identity. > Proportionately far fewer, obviously I dont think so. There's a lot of people in this country, far more citizens than illegal immigrants. > Not wanting to finance unskilled lawbreakers capital punishment for every crime if you dont have a degree? what are you arguing? yes, the argument is immigrants and citizens aren't different. we're all people | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
