Illegal Immigration in the US
See my above post about illegals paying more in taxes than ge. Besides, most of those problems happen because immigration procedure is such a hampering process, if it was easier then the immigrants wouldn't be as destabilizing as people presume they are. Not only that, but there are LEGAL citizens who don't have medical nor car insurance. What that does make them? Dangerous criminals that should be deported? Not likely. Anti-leech? Fine, so am I. But I find legal citizens (CEOs) who leeches off both legal and illegal taxpayers and lazy legal citizens leeching off welfare much worse than free high schools or emergency medical treatment for illegals.

Illegal Immigration in the US
Exactly. Unfortunatly, I get the impression people think I want to hold the hands of every Mexican, Chinese, etc and give them a house and a job here. That's not the case. It's up for the individual to travel all the way here and risk whatever they want for whatever they think (whether or not this country is the land of opportunity) is here. A government should not stop them from doing that unless it harms others: which is surprisingly to Americans, a small minority who commit violence.

Then why would they steal SS numbers? Because the majority of jobs ask for them, or else they wouldn't steal SS numbers. Either legalize them or force companies to ignore the SS 'requirement'.

No, you're just misunderstanding pretty much everything I said. My dad is educated in Korea. He told me he took college for 2 years so that should get you a decent job, right? Well, guess what, in the U.S my dad can't even get any jobs that requires a HS diploma or GED because my dad wasn't educated in U.S. He COULD probably get a decent job if the district is strict on Korean education since that's not the case, he cannot because pretty much no one would care if you got a degree in a foreign country. If you weren't educated here, then you can't get the job. That's what i meant by "crap". So the possibility of a company not hiring you warrants NOBODY from entering...and getting shot? My family's accountant was educated in Chile and he's got a job here. Your father must be working in something as well, or you wouldn't really be on the internet right now. Economic failure can happen here, I'm not reforming the economy so everyone gets profits. But politics shouldn't hinder natural individual economic rights.

Oh please. What did you do to earn your citizenship? Simply being born? If everyone has to 'earn' their citizenship, we all should start over at 18 and work our way up. That way, we magically know who should benefit America. :rolleyes: It's not just me who was born in US but my parents who took their own effort to become citizens in this country AND me. I'm rolling my eyes at your statement because of how many illegals would agree with you and how many citizens would disagree with you. I was raised and educated here for my whole life so I think I've already earned it thank you so much. Illegals were raised and educated in a DIFFERENT country. They have no standards to become citizens because first off, they may not know how the law works (which is a clear indication of why they border hop in the first place) They may not speak our languages and since they're education is worth crap that it doesn't count, they even take jobs away from people who have NO hope and education. I was expecting some serious examples. Those are all laughable. Firstly, public American education is not the best in the world nor is it of much importance in this argument. Keep in mind, you are insulting more countries than I thought you could insult at a single time by calling their schools crap. Even the "1st world" Western countries that are educationally superior than American public schools. Still on the first point, foreign college education is simply not 'crap'. Hell, the only way you're easily getting into this country is if you have some kind of formal specialty. Clearly, even the US government views foregin educational not as crap. Secondly, legalizing immigration they won't be criminals. Solved that problem. Thirdly, are you calling your parents crap? You should kill them for entering this sacred soil, it justifies the death penalty right? Just stupid.

Yes. Lowering immigration laws it will solve that problem.

That way, we magically know who should benefit America. There is no logical reasons for not allowing immigrants. Most agruments are fallacies, just false, and xenophobia, especially the last one. I think the best way to start opening up the border is to allow college graduates/students/bound to recieve residency. As I said in the other thread, we desperately need human capital if America is to maintain it's economic superiority. Hell, this is a pretty selfish reason and not even worrying about the welfare of the immigrant. If you want America to succeed (as anti-immigration nutjobs clearly want) you can't disagree with that point.

National ID in America
Its not off-topic, its relevant. The points of a National ID is for (1) Identifying you and (2) Proving your citizenship. Thus it is very relevant. This National ID will do nothing but fuel more anti-immigration propaganda. The benefit is a more centralized system, but I don't understand why we can't do that with Social security already.

As I said, a lot of those you do. Government grants require SS numbers, and medical insurance you need SS numbers. An educated workforce is the best capital this country can easily afford and we're throwing it away over petty physical differences.

:wall: They already need a SS number for a lot of those, what makes this ID any different?

Wait what are we talking about here? Sex Ed in schools teach you about using protection and STDs and parents teach about protection. Pornography teaches you how your junk fits into a woman's junk. They're not teaching the same thing at all... I'm confused. (If it teaches anything in the first place)

So much hate for stay-home parents. My mother was a stay-home parent (still is :thumbsup: ) and me and my sister had no problems in entering school. I'm always told I didn't want to leave Preschool on the first day. :shades: But usually, I would prefer stayhome parents for infancy until middle school; when middle school starts the kids are old enough to stay home by themselves.
