Goodness, the vitriol! This is the kind of rabid xenophobia that has accompanied every wave of immigrants to this country. Go meet a few of them who are working three jobs and eating one meal a day, and living with 8 other people in a 2-bedroom apartment so they can send money home to their family. They work fucking hard for things most Americans take completely for granted. Most of them are paid under the table, so they don't pay taxes, but most of them don't take advantage of the welfare services that taxes pay for because they're afraid of being caught and deported. Is illegal entry a bit of a problem? Yes. Are they to blame for spreading disease and ruining the American economy? Please. Check your facts, and then check your bigotry at the door.
