I don't understand the problem. America prides itself as a nation created by the strength of immigrants since the 17th century.

Insert the word "illegal" and you might understand the problem.

If you know history, you'll realize we're all immigrants.

I live right in middle of 'immigration' - 2 of my Mex/...American neighbors sell cocaine. I bet the other 40 living in my trailer park don't pay taxes. Wake up SB - The American dream is being replaced by the Mexican dream.

Does anyone realize that all those illegal imigrants are taking jobs away from legal citizens? They get the jobs because they'll work cheap (busboys, fastfood etc.etc, etc.) Solvang runs on illegals.

LOL, "California Immigrant Policy Center" is writing their own version of how great illegal immigration is to our State! Our schools are subidizing "anchor babies", our hospitals are charging the taxpayers for illegal's medical services from routine ER visits to birthing centers, food Debit cards for non citizens, housing subsidized at taxpayer expense...the list goes on and on. The only thing that can change the tide of illegal immigration is to CHANGE the 14th Ammendment of the Consitution. We are the ONLY country in the WORLD that gives citizenship and a all the social welfare benefits to children born here to non citizens- It's CRAZY! If I was a poor -underclass Mexican citizen, I too would cross the border for all the free services the US taxpayers provide!

An easy fix, which would limit most if not all frustration with the illegal immigration, would be to make illegal immigrants pay for services including medical, dental, welfare, schooling, etc. If these services cost something, less people would poor into our state. The tax paying social security card having citizens of this country are tired of footing the bill for those not legally here. Im especially unhappy about paying for the college education of illegal immigrants, but being unable to get financial support for my own daughters' education. Citizens first, whatever extra money is left....lol there isnt any!
