Just a Thought: Illegal Immigration in the U.S.
Just a Thought: Illegal Immigration in the U.S.: " Well lets get started on the basics. 1. 113 billion dollars: the cost. 75% of this is absorbed by the states. 2. 52 billion The cost..."
Illegal Immigration in the U.S.
Well lets get started on the basics.
1. 113 billion dollars: the cost. 75% of this is absorbed by the states.
2. 52 billion The cost of educating the children.
3. 2.700 dollars The average dollar amount a single illegal cost the government.
4. 51% of Mexican immigrant households that use at least one major welfare program.
5. 28% use more than one.
6. 1.4 million use Food stamps. WIC,School lunches,Medicaid,TANF,Public housing,SSI
Now just a little on the dark side:
1. In 2001 undocumented criminals in Federal prisons alone 42.424.
2. in 2004 that number went to 48.708.
3. The cost in 2001 was 950 million.
4. The cost in 2004 was 1.2 billion.
Now these are just numbers, but when you look at the budget battle going on in this country you cannot discount the fact that illegal immigration is a huge problem in this country. As Americans we have good hearts but we are going in the wrong direction when it comes to this problem. Now do not get me wrong I believe in immigration, but legally. We talk about when pulled over by the police, when they ask for proof of citizenship, is this a bad thing. If you go to any south American country they do that everywhere. They do this all over the world. But, ok I will digress on this. If you are caught in Mexico illegally the punishment is harsh as it is in most if not all south American countries. Why no outcry in this country about this. The President of Mexico comes to America and tells us our laws are too harsh on illegals, while in his own country they are twice as bad.
Well dancing around this problem is not going to get us nowhere. Illegal immigration is a hugh problem in this country, it cost an atrocious amount of money. We have to stop being so damn politically correct and face this problem head on. Now a days it comes up during Presidential elections and local elections. These people running for these offices are going to lie to you about their view, they will tell you only what is popular at the time. My God if you add up the amount of money we spend on this problem and paying all this money to other countries to prop up their own governments, which is in the hundreds of billions a year. If you want to fix this country and get it back on the right track stop this madness.
The reason why the greatest generation of the 1920's through the 1960' is over. This country in world war two pulled together like no other country in modern history. This country innovated and built technology and a mutual respect for one another. Not so much now. We have broken off in splinter groups like blacks against whites, hispanics against blacks, gay against straight, rich against poor, and so on if you look hard enough their is a group for anything now a days. When did we stop being Americans? Now we are Asian Americans, Indian Americans, African Americans, and so on. We have political alliances Spanish Caucus a Black Caucus and so on, by the way their is no white caucus. Hum wonder why. Do you think its because it might inflame one of the groups of people I talked about above. Maybe, who knows.
If you want to stop this problem use your head, "its that thing 3 fT above your ass". We need to stop this political correctness BS, and face this problem head on. I went through the Tornados here in Alabama and I have seen the best in America taking care of their own. Black, white,hispanic,asian, it did not matter we all flew the U.S. flag, pitched in and helped each other and were Americans first. So I know we have it in us to do so. But you have to avoid the groups who try to separate us from each other by race and religion, and so on. Stand up for yourself and your country and we will make it through this. The reason why this is the greatest country in the world is because we look out for each other. Not so much anymore, we have begun thinking we can fix everyone else. We need to fix our self first, deal with the problems we have right here in our own country. I have seen devastation here in Alabama like I have never seen before but I have seen brotherhood and sisterhood like I have never seen before. During this time of devastation I did see a glimmer of the Greatest Generation. We need to build on that.

News of the Day
Just to let you know that the IMF dropped a bomb shell today by saying that China will over take the U.S. by 2016. I suppose nobody seen that coming right. Maybe Barack did, what with all these new programs how the hell did you think he was going to pay for these hand outs. And then turn around a tell the country they will have no money to retire on.( Makes you want to go out and just vote for him again, don't it?) That was a smart AZZ remark of course. It is now only time become we become a one world government. That will be his explanation for the way out of all of this. You just watch it's coming. He will get up in front of the American people and connivence some of them that it is the only way out. And because we do not learn from our mistakes most will fall for it. God help us, because we can't seem to help ourselves.

Americas on it's way out.
If you somehow look at this as a informed adult, you will see what I am talking about. If you look at the last Roman
Civilization, it ended with a man calling for change. But for the most part you have to find the root of the problem and with Rome it was money and greed, but most of all it was one man thinking he was right and everyone else was wrong. The Roman Empire was the greatest Empire in the old world and no one thought it would come crashing down. Now look at America same thing different century. Money and greed control everything and one man thinks he is our father and he knows best. People believed him two years ago about hope and change and will again. This country will fall because as stewards we have failed to see this man and his cronies for what and who they really are. I told my father some eight years ago to by all the silver he could, at that time silver was around 6 dollars an oz. Today that silver is 46 dollars and oz. Thats a hell of a return on a 6 dollar investment. The reason I told him to buy silver is because if you cannot control spending in Washington the dollar become worthless. Then when Obama got elected Well I kind of seen what was coming, the message of hope and change meant taking from hard working people and giving it to people who do nothing but complain because they have entered this country illegally, or that all white people owe some kind of reparations (welfare) because of some injustice some 150 years ago. This category of people should just stop complaining. If you want to solve this budget problem lets start with the illegal alien problem. Billions spent on anchor babies, and their families. Billions spent on Medicaid and medicare, welfare and section 8 housing. Go to Vardaman Mississippi, the teachers their have 30 to 35 students in their classes and over half of them are Mexican, speak no English. So now the teachers their have to come up with a way to communicate with them, and their parents and that takes that time away from the other students, how is this fair. But don't say anything because you will be labeled a racists if you do. I grew up in the late 60's and 70's and I do not recognize this country anymore. If you reelect Obama again that means you really have your head in the sand and are complacent to what has been going on around you. I have traveled all over this country in the last year and heard many stories from fellow travelers they all say the same thing, they do not recognize their own country anymore. And for all of those people who read this and say it is not this bad, well I have only one thing to tell you. Throughout History we have made the same mistakes over and over again, because someone comes along and thinks he or she knows what's best for this country. We listen to the people we elect, bitch about what they don't do and then go right back out and vote for their asses again. Take this for what it is worth, inform yourself, educate yourself. and you had better store some water food and meds because this is going to get worse before it gets better. (Laugh now and you will cry later).

Just a Thought
You know I have a lot to say, so I will start with this. I have noticed that people have become very complacent. I hear the phrase just show love, understanding, and everything will be just fine. I agree with all of them, but I do not walk around calling a duck a sheep and a sheep a duck. It is either one or the other it cannot be both. It scares the hell out of me at how uninformed people in this country have become.I hear if it sounds bad on the news we just tell ourselves in some way it is not. If you see a story about anything on the news or in paper or just on the net just stop for a second and ask yourself one question. Did I look into this to make sure this is true or not true. Take the annotative to just look it up before commenting. This country was founded on the search for something better, it was founded by people that said "well if the end of the world is over the horizon I guess we will find out". At one point in our history people thought the world was flat. But by our very nature we explored it, to find out that was wrong. What happen to that spirit? We need to somehow get this part of our selves back to what our instincts have been, in all of us. Just think, when you were a child you would explore your surroundings look for odd things ask strange questions. Now look at yourself. Now do you do any of these things. Or did you accept the every answer you hear and become a sheep among wolves. Just take time out to research your surroundings and what is going on in the world, and I promise you it will look somewhat different when you put some time into asking simple questions.
I know this sounds like a rant but it is a plea for us in America to stop looking in one direction. Check out the world around you. "someday I fear our Technology will surpass our humanity" Albert Einstein. Well Albert was right. Next time you go out for a drive just look around you, people on the phone texting while driving. texting someone who is standing right next to you. Just Say-in.
