Every time an American vacations in Mexico, we are supporting this crime infested country.
.
No, every time an American vacations in Mexico, we are supporting the decent Mexicans who want to work and educate their children. The only reason any Mexican comes looking for work in America is b/c they can't find work in Mexico. The only reason boys turn to drug dealing is b/c they can't make decent wages the lawful way, and that's as true in Mexico as here in America.
Support small business men & women, spend your money buying products and services from decent people who are ethical business folks. Don't vacation at international hotel chains or resorts.
Buy Local and support Local.

GOP Goes After Child Tax Credit for Illegals Published Feb 9, 2012 | Immigration911.org ShareThis844 2 Washington, DC – As lawmakers scratch around looking for ways to pay for the proposed extension of the payroll tax cut set to expire at month’s end, Republicans in Congress who have seen no serious proposal from Democrats on how to pay for it, are moving to stop illegal aliens from receiving child tax credits in an effort to help pay for the extension.
In 2010, the Treasury Department estimated that 2.3 million illegal aliens were paid over $4.2 billion via the child tax credit. Many members of Congress, including some Democrats, believe this is wrong. That is why they are looking to stop the practice once and for all.
The proposal has met some resistance from those you would expect. Far-left liberals like Senator Harry Reid and those at the National Council of La Raza (NCLR) are crying about the deprivation of children who are citizens born to illegals.
NCLR thinks it’s “outrageous and it’s crazy” that we are asking people who are raising a family and making close to minimum wage to pay for the payroll tax cut. But are they really paying for anything?
The bottom 48% of income earners in America pay 0% of the nation’s tax bill according to the IRS. This is because everything they pay in during the course of the year from their paychecks all gets returned at refund time due to their low income bracket and credits like the child tax credit. And it is safe to say the 2.3 million illegal aliens who paid some taxes last year all fit into this category, as illegal alien wages tend to be lowest of all wages.
So, of the 8 million illegal aliens in the workforce, 70% don’t even try to pay taxes and the 30% that do, get it all back in the end anyway. And often times they get more.
Whether the plan will find it’s way into the final version of the payroll tax extension remains to be seen. But if it does, liberals can be assured that the only thing illegal aliens will be deprived of is a tax refund they didn’t earn.

LOL, Well, ol' Bud, I don't doubt most of them are a ways ahead of you when it comes to smarts.
But, hang in there. You may not be able to "screw the system" perfectly but I have no doubt you give it a hundred and ten percent.

Gunbattles, kidnappings, carjackings: US expands Mexico travel warning
Note to folks who live in fear and never leave there zip code area:::
Travel warnings have been around since the beginning of time. Anytime one travels outside the boundary of the USA always check the travel warnings, first. And thanks for worrying about us.
Who remembers travel warnings at the Rome and Athens airport for instance.

Hang in there JB. What you are posting is real news and pertinent to our lives here in OKLAHOMA, and to sane folk who aren't L-wingers, today.
Personally, I believe it's too late and too far progressed, and too many bleeding heart L-wingers doing everything to keep the status-quo, to stop it and undo the damage that has already been done. At this point, all we can do (and encourage others to do) is get informed and prepare ourselves as it gets worse...because it IS getting worse, and nothing is going to stop it now...for many reasons.
NOTHING that any of the so-called left winger posters on here say or do will help or hinder the illegal immigration going on.
Call your Congressperson and give'em hell. If there wasn't SOMEONE profiting off this situation, there would be more concern for our southern border than the oil fields of the Middle East. Maybe some of the money that went in to the worlds largest American embassy, in Iraq, could have been used to build a wall and streamline the legal immigration process. If you count the bases in the Middle East, it appears that America isn't as important as the Middle East. I wonder if things would be different if all those bases were along the Rio Grande?
This issue has been helped along by a bi-partisan effort from Washington. You might notice that when Dubya puffed up about the illegal situation...NOTHING happened! It wasn't the liberal Congress that we hear so much about. It was pressure from several businesspeople/GOP donors that hire these folks. I'm sure there is more to it than that but I can't honestly say what it is at this time. I can't help but think it has something to do with the oil fields in South America.

Discover oil in Mexico and see how long it is before we decide they're building nukes and we need to step in and take over--for our own protection, of course.

mexico has oil,and alot of it....while we are fighting other countries battles for them.. our government is not watching our back door.you could call whats happening to the US an invasion,,some will laugh and mock,, until war breaks out on our soil....then they will want protection. we keep re electing the same government officials over and over. we need to get rid of those who have been in office,, for years,, and have done nothing to even curb the illegal invasion. our country did not get into this shape over night,,, and it will take decades to set it right again...we may be all dead by the time that happens,,,,,,but we had better get a start on it now.
