Americans comment on the Senate's immigration bill:

>>Employers do not have a “right” to a plentiful supply of dirt cheap labor. If you have a task that needs to be done, you may offer a job, and you may offer it at minimum wage with no benefits. But if no one accepts your offer, you must either improve the offer until someone accepts, do the job yourself, or let the job go undone.
People are tired of employers who attract illegal immigrants by offering them employment, but stick it to the community for the health care and other services that illegal immigrants use but can’t pay for<<

>>Our representatives need to do the will of the American people and stop pandering to business looking for cheap labor. Stop them at the border and set the conditions so they go home. No amesty, no reward for breaking the law.<<

>>Too many people have used the farm labor problem as an excuse to look the other way. Now the same is happening in the building industry. The illegals and especially the people hiring them are reaping the financial benefits. Not only should all immigrants have papers, a child should not automatically become a U.S. citizen just because they are born on U.S. soil. Why should anyone visiting in another country, legally or illegally, expect their child to automatically gain citizenship just because they are born there?<<

>>Obviously, Congressional Democrats (and Republican panderers) ARE NOT going to offer meaningful immigration legislation as long as they are controlled by special interests.<<

>>Do these idiots not remember the amnesty bill of 1986? The “enforcement” part of that bill went by the wayside quickly, and the “enforcement” (cough) provisions of this bill will, too.
And, for all those “compassionate” people who only care about the illegals who want jobs, how about showing some of your “compassion” by not wanting to create a permanent underclass to provide you with slave labor?<<
