Again I am glad Big Al is safe, I don't think owning a gun and shooting the person would have been the solution. That would have opened up more problems for Big Al, had he done that. The illegal guy must have been somewhat honest to admit he was an Illegal, and had no insurance and to offer money for the damage he caused Big Al, I think the illegal guy ony grabbed at the phone as a last attempt to not be reported. (not defending the illegal guy at all, he was wrong but ...please note, he was willing to correct the damage he knew he caused)
Yes! Mexico is the coutry with a real problem, more corrupt than our government is. Known corruption too. They take and take from their countrymen/women, businesses, and give not much at all back to their people. If that stopped we would not have a big an issue regarding illegals.
I wonder why our Government does not get into their business more in Mexicos government business.??? Or is it that our Government does have something to do and say unbeknownced to us. I'm sure us average Americans would crindge if we only knew.
Heres the thing, if there was a less expensive, with not as much red tape way to become a citizen, the illegals would now be tax paying citizens. Our system makes it too difficult for the poor illegals to become U.S. citizens. Most illegals come here to work less paying, that maybe have long hours or is a back breaking jobs that the average Amercians will not work.
On the other hand, in factories, construction companies, shame on those employers for not assisting their illegal employees to become tax paying citizens!
Here is what I've heard, read or know of in AZ.
I know in Arizona this state is serious about verifying SS# and proper documentation to work in this state. If you go looking for job, you better have a pic id, ss# card and your birth certificate with you on your interview. (I take mine everytime I've applied for a job and got an interview)
This state has issued lists to employers here, for employees that did not have a match on name with SS#. The companies here are given so much time to respond and make it right. A local factory here lost ALOT of employees due to not being legal in the country or having proper documentation. (a major corp too) They lost workers, and are bascially having to hire from the ground up. The sad thing is .. in this town/county...hard to find employees that can pass a drug test. (hmmm yet the illegals that worked there did pass the drug tests)
I am not defending illegals, but I understand why the family oriented illegals come here.
...(not that many criminals come over here, from Mexico, not as many as you would think) We do get them but most illegals from Mexico come to earn money to send back to their families because wages are so much higher here than there and a little U.S. dollars still goes a long way there. (most of the crime in Phoenix, are CA rejects from LA. *no exageration there. I've talk to a few people give that options from Courts in LA, ...that were told to get out of CA or go to jail, so they come one state over to still be close for family to visit them*) How funny is that??? (not very)
With that said, I do understand the importance of national security in our country(some red tape is needed there) The link below is a good site for illegals, but GEE whiz....... how can they get to it if they don't have internet access or know about it. When I did the search out of curiosity, the first sites I saw were sites of people trying to make a buck. How would they illegals know which site is the most honest one???
The info is not readily availible, and I'm sure Mexico does not offer the info easily for folks there, that want to come here to live and work or become U. S. citizens. Check it out and just see what the choices a person wanting citizenship or visas have to decide on t
