I'm a union construction laborer and I'm already beginning to see signs of illegals threatening my job. I just think it's retarded they are all breaking the law we don't need them here period. Their just running from their problems in their own country and in the end they are a drain on or society. They should stay in Mexico or whatever country they came from and use all that productivity they can put up to build their homeland into somewhere they want to live. LIKE OR FORFATHERS DID
And the border being as open as it is a big threat to national security. If some terrorist wants to blow something up here all he has to do is learn Spanish and then sneak in from Mexico.

Mecha Constitution

*Mexicans reclaiming the southwest portion of America that we bought from them in 1848 for 15 million dollars. The same land we "stole" from them. If you can't reclaim the land with military, the only other solution is to saturate it with mexicans until the white people leave. Stealthmode is a white person that left.

Chicano and Chicana students of Aztlán must take upon themselves the responsibilities to promote Chicanismo within the community, politicizing our Raza with an emphasis on indigenous consciousness to continue the struggle for the self-determination of the *Chicano people for the purpose of liberating Aztlán.

Based on Census Bureau data, the study estimates that households headed by illegal aliens used $10 billion more in government services than they paid in taxes in 2002. (That's only federal and doesn't include local and state costs)
The study also finds that if illegals were given amnesty, the fiscal deficit at the federal level would grow to nearly $29 billion.
Among the largest federal costs: Medicaid ($2.5 billion); treatment for the uninsured ($2.2 billion); food assistance programs ($1.9 billion); the federal prison and court systems ($1.6 billion); and federal aid to schools ($1.4 billion)
If illegal aliens were legalized and began to pay taxes and use services like legal immigrants with the same education levels, the estimated annual fiscal deficit at the federal level would increase from $2,700 per household to nearly $7,700, for a total federal deficit of $29 billion.
Amnesty increases costs because illegals would still be largely unskilled, and thus their tax payments would continue to be very modest, but once legalized they would be able to access many more government services.
The fact that legal immigrants with little schooling are a fiscal drain on federal coffers does not mean that legal immigrants overall are a drain. Many legal immigrants are highly skilled.
Employers do not see the costs associated with less-educated immigrant workers because the costs are ------ out among all taxpayers.

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Immigrant-owned taco stands and bakeries from California to New Jersey largely were shut down on Monday, but most U.S. restaurants reported no shortage of busboys and cooks despite a national boycott and major protests by pro-immigration activists.

In Los Angeles' predominantly Latino neighborhood of Echo Park, mom-and-pop bakeries joined other businesses in closing for the day. The same was true in a largely Hispanic area of Jersey City, New Jersey, where a normally busy Mexican restaurant was closed at lunch time.
A shortage of workers also extended to some restaurant chains. McDonald's Corp., for instance, said some of its restaurants were operating with limited staff or were just running their drive-thrus.
Overall, however, experts said most restaurants were operating normally and estimated the rallies would have a limited impact on the industry since many had rejigged their schedules to accommodate workers who wanted the day off.
"The actual economic damage will be minimal because they will be able to double up on shifts," said Malcolm Knapp, president of restaurant research firm Malcolm M. Knapp Inc.
In downtown Los Angeles, employees at several popular lunch spots said everyone had shown up to work. Eateries at the Westfield Garden State Plaza mall in Paramus, New Jersey also reported no lack of workers and a spokeswoman for Starbucks Corp. said the chain had not had to close or pare back the hours of any of its coffee shops.
A spokeswoman for the National Restaurant Association, Chrissy Shott, said the trade group had encouraged restaurants to be flexible with shifts or to send one or two employees to the rallies as representatives. She could not estimate how many of the restaurant industry's 1.6 million immigrant workers had asked for the day off or stayed home.
Major restaurant companies such as IHOP Corp., Applebee's International Inc. and Olive Garden parent Darden Restaurants Inc. said they had been planning for Monday's rallies for several weeks.
"This is definitely a situation that we were able to plan for," said Applebee's spokesman Frank Ybarra, who added that employees in Texas and California had shown the most interest in taking the day off.
IHOP spokesman Patrick Lenow said some of the chain's restaurants were prepared to offer a limited menu or even close if staff failed to show up to work, but added those plans had not been implemented.
"We have not heard of any difficulties," he said.
