Alex, Stop blaming everyone else! Would'nt the parents be at fault for smuggling children into a foriegn country? Sure, they are trying to improve thier lives, but to break the law and cause these hardships on the children. Come'on....
And Dave, illegal immigrants cost this country alot more money then the few that have taxes taken out of thier checks. And they are usually using someone else's S.S. number. Look at our current prison's. I grew up on the Mexican border and have seen these issues my intire life. Something has to be done to stop these tragedies from occuring. It would be nice if they just left on thier own and saved us the cost of rounding them up and shipping them to thier homeland. Our people might want those landscaping jobs, now?
Wow, what a spin.... Does "undocumented" mean "illegal"?
The "Dream Act" only allows people who have broke the law, entering this country, to move to the front of the line. In front of the people asking to enter this country the proper way. Imagine who you'd be in the Phillipines!
I'm Sorry to hear your story, Barbara. As much as we enjoy smoking pot, it is still illegal, if you get caught, you go to jail. You did'nt say what your health issue is, but I'm sure there is something you can do for a paycheck? As for preditory lending, you had to have received copies of all of the documents you signed, but probally did'nt and set them aside until it was too late, Also, I'll bet you got into a house you could'nt afford or didn't have a polished credit score and accepted terms beyond your means.
Accorn is a corrupt organization and just like these other issues bogging down your life, you should take charge of your life and future activites, research and learn before you blindly follow organzations like this... Just my thought, but try it! Take responsibility for your own actions!
