hehe. Dont get me wrong, I luv the spanish people. The music can be somewhat repetetive but some of those broads are pretty hot :)

I am thoroughly convinced that our government has destined them to become the new debtor-slave.

With respect to the article and our own immigration NON-policy, why do we need them ? I can clean my own house, mow my own lawn, and so on. I dont mind paying a college kid a respectable wage for some of that stuff. I even fix my own damn car, cause I dont buy the latest new-fangled shyt, and its made in America dammit. Ok, some of the parts are from Canada, but thats acceptable :)

Could it be, the gov needs an expanded consumer tax base ;) I guess from the gov's point of view it helps stave-off inflation. How much would going to dinner cost if the restaurant had to pay $20/hr for a dishwasher (I do it for free, as long as the wife can provide a happy ending :) ? Mayor Bloomberg knows the score.

When my daughter was born I went to Sears for one-piece jump suits. Holy crap, 70 cents on the discount rack ? I was honestly ashamed to buy em knowing the Carolina cotton mills were just completely wiped-out. I mean, how many freaking suits do I need ? $10 worth ?

Something aint right. It seems obvious to me that our government (democratic and republican) has been tailoring the economy and policy to their needs.

Lotsa kids with cheap clothes and a cheap imported suv, doesnt sound like my family. Shyte man, what happened to domestic self-sufficiency ?

i have never heard so much noise by non-hispanic americans WHINING about something so trivial of << press 1 for english>>.
How petty can a human be? Seems to be no limit.
Lanquage wars be just another example of why Twain wrote a book of essays called The Damned Human Race.
A pox on all intolerance. Max
p.s. It is no surprise the membership in the KKK has been rising since Lou Dobbs and his English Only Police started this as a crusade on his TV show.

Eventually you'll have to press "dos".

I'm still wondering what the immigrants of German extraction think of it all.

serve.com

and what is the Indian language for "press 5 if you wish to leave a message on voicemail"

probably a tomahawk thrown at the head when they next met I would imagine.
