So You Hate the Immigration Bill

[cherokeeprogressive]

Imagine living in a state where those born somewhere else (in another country) were given access to things you, as an American Citizen, born in this country, could only dream of.

Would that seem strange to you? The notion that an "illegal" alien could go to a state institution like UCLA and pay a lower tuition than your child?

We argue the notion of state instituted health care, when it's common knowledge that in an emergency situation, NO ONE IS DENIED HEALTH CARE IF IT'S A MATTER OF LIFE AND DEATH.

No one. It's against the law to deny health care to someone who is in immediate danger of losing their life. How many of you know that?

Someone has to pay that bill. I'm glad to know I'm part of the solution. I want every American Citizen to pay the health bill of Every World Citizen because I think it's fair. Who cares what the person who has no children, who was born in this country, who has worked toward and achieved financial independence thinks.

From those who have, to those who who have not! NOW!

Imagine tomorrow's world, should that come to pass...

2. Labor is labor.

It must be rewarded regardless of the fantasy notion of nation states.

Corporations are Global,

5. You're under the illusion that undocumented workers aren't taxed

The vast majority have regular jobs with W-2 wages withheld, and would be entitled to tax refunds if they filed. Why shouldn't they be entitled to public services?

6. Well, I'm not crazy about it...

Imagine living in a state where those born somewhere else (in another country) were given access to things you, as an American Citizen, born in this country, could only dream of.

Like what? I've never heard of someone from another country getting something that I, as an American citizen, could only dream of...well, unless you're talking about a swimming pool. I'd like one of those. Oh, and new Lexus. Yeah, that'd be nice. Did you have something else in mind?

Would that seem strange to you? The notion that an "illegal" alien could go to a state institution like UCLA and pay a lower tuition than your child?

Well, if my kid moves to another state to go to college, we'll be paying out-of-state tuition costs which are considerably higher than one who is a resident of that state. How would an illegal alien get lower tuition? Please expand.

And as far as health care goes, I don't mind paying for it. If someone's life is saved, I'm all for it. I prefer my tax money to go towards saving lives rather than the taking of them as this obscene war has done. The cost of war is too high.

on edit: does something stink here or is it just me?

7. Our country is falling apart, let them come and we can roast marshmallows

together. Before it's all said and done, we might be migrating to Mexico, ever think of that.
