Thanks for that, Peter..If the ILLEGALS would go back to their own country, and apply to come here like the Legal Immigrants do, I'd be all for them to come in. But to stay here, and soak up funds from the US Taxpayers, I say NO! Also, we have too many people who are unskilled already here in this country. And many of them are on purpose that way. These are the young ones that thumbed their nose at free education, paid for by the US Taxpayers, and decided to drop out. These are the folks that I don't feel sorry for, and don't think we as a country, should continue to enable them to have their shiftless lifestyle at the expense of others. Cut them from welfare rolls. If they want a job, they can find one. Or maybe another country would welcome them.... We need people here who can contribute to the greatness of America not to be a drag on it. >>>>> As one who has tended to support comprehensive bills, I think we might, at a time when high unemployment means we have less need for unskilled workers, have to consider moving away from family reunification and toward high skill levels in our criteria for legal immigration, as Canada and Australia already do. <<<<<
