Illegal Immigration

Don't get me wrong, here. I believe that the United States should welcome all who chose to come here. I also happen to believe that those who chose to come should have to follow the rules. If you chose to come and want to stay, do it the right way. If I were to go to Mexico or Denmark or Ghana or any other country, I would expect to have to abide by the rules of that country; I would not expect to be catered to.
Also, in spite of what I read and what the books (and the people who write them) try to teach us, I find it difficult to believe that illegal immigrants are contributing to our economy. How can they? It does not make any sense to me.
So, here is an email that Paul sent me this morning:

From the L. A. Times
1. 40% of all workers in L. A. County ( L. A. County has 10.2 million people) are working for cash and not paying taxes. This is because they are predominantly illegal aliens working without a green card.
2. 95% of warrants for murder in Los Angeles are for illegal aliens.
3. 75% of people on the most-wanted list in Los Angeles are illegal aliens.
4. Over 2/3 of all births in Los Angeles County are to illegal alien Mexicans on Medi-Cal, whose births were paid for by taxpayers.
5. Nearly 35% of all inmates in California detention centers are Mexican nationals here illegally.
6. Over 300,000 illegal aliens in Los Angeles County are living in garages.
7. The FBI reports half of all gang members in Los Angeles are most likely illegal aliens from south of the border.
8. Nearly 60% of all occupants of HUD properties are illegal.
9. 21 radio stations in L. A. are Spanish speaking.
10. In L. A. County 5.1 million people speak English, 3.9 million  speak Spanish. (There are 10.2 million people in L. A. County.)
(All 10 of the above statements are from the Los Angeles Times)

Less than 2% of illegal aliens are picking our crops, but 29% are on welfare.
Over 70% of the United States' annual population growth (and over 90% of California, Florida, and New York ) results from immigration.
29% of inmates in federal prisons are illegal aliens.

We are a bunch of fools for letting this continue!
Legal citizens paying billions for illegals incarceration, anchor babies, welfare, health care and crime against lawful citizens while they pay nothing.
No other country in the world allows such abuse of their borders and sovereignty.

HOW CAN YOU HELP?
Send copies of this letter to at least two other people. 100 would be even better.
This is only one State. If this doesn't open your eyes, nothing will.

1. Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery. -- Winston Churchill    
2. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity, by legislating the wealth out of prosperity.  
3. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.
4. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.  
5. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.  
6. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them; and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work, because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that is the beginning of the end of any nation.
