I under...I don't hate you, Liberal one from Az. I understand your worries and fears that this could hurt us. On the other hand, we've been given no choice. Doing nothing will hurt us more and we will end up like California - broke, overloaded school systems, and a very unstable future on the horizon. However, I can't see that this will really lead to serious problems for the ones who are here legally, ourselves included. I have to show a drivers license when I get stopped for speeding. Identification is something we should all carry at any time... We are on the target for terrorism, remember. <br />I understand that most of us in America are immigrants - I just don't like calling anyone alien if they are from earth. Legal or not. I actually did come from Native stock - My great grandmother on my father's side was Cherokee. <br />Also, I don't care if non english speaking people get food stamps and assistance. But they do have to be legal and that is my whole argument - they are not. I agree that we have hundreds, thousands, on the dole from the government, who don't deserve it. Our system is broken. I also believe the illegal aliens know this and are availing themselves of an opportunity that most people living in America have no access to.Suzi Quehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09457202257890176422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2044015695024367017.post-91080787328005513602010-05-12T12:55:35.185-07:002010-05-12T12:55:35.185-07:00Don't hate me - I'm a Liberal. I live in ...Don't hate me - I'm a Liberal. I live in Arizona and even though we have a huge illegal immigration problem, I fear that laws like the one our legislators (not the voters) passed will hurt us all in the long run. There has to be a better way. If I knew what it was, I would run for President. In the meantime remember this - we are talking about ILLEGAL ALIENS, not immigrants. We all came from immigrant stock (except for Native Americans who got here first). I don't care if the non-English speaking people get welfare and food stamps as long as they are LEGAL and have the right to be here! And to be fair, we have plenty of English speaking welfare recipients that don't deserve the handouts either. Like I said, don't hate me.

Of course our government is...Yes it sucks big time. Of course our government is too busy helping all the illegals, other countries and even those who are legal, but are not from the USA, rather than help it's own. They make us jump through hoops just to get $10 worth or food stamps, disability, or purchase a new home, etc. We have people in this country who need help desperately and are willing to work for it, but we are the ones who are treated like illegals or minorities. Heaven help us....because this world is going to hell in a hand basket.

How we scrimped and worked and saved to get what we have and now the people who were having all the fun get everything free now. John just sold a three bedroom brick house and the people were able to buy it with nothing down and payments of just over $400. When I was young I sure didn't have anything near a brick house. To be fair I need to add in this county there are a lot of anglos who are on the band wagon of government programs so they don't work. Not because they can't because why should they when they can get it for free.
