Obama's Immigration Policy Will Grow the Economy

I am disappointed because children of illegals get to go to Pre-K in our city ( San Antonio ) and our children have to stay home and wait until they enter Kindergarten to go to school. Our Mayor is a traitor same as his friend Obama is a traitor to the Americans in this country. How can a Mayor do that to us? Our Mayor decided he needed an increase in the sales tax, so the children of illegals and children of low income parents can go to Pre-K for the whole day and it passed because the low income came out to vote since it was going to benefit their children. Oh, I forgot his family came from Mexico, so he may feel he is obligated to help those from his cesspool country. Our children have no chance to attend Pre-K and this to me is discrimination, and someone should file charges against the city and also against school districts in this city. This may be going on in every city in this country and it's about time to put a stop to this discrimination being done to American citizen children.

you all sound like a Racist. Don't forget that your ancestors were immigrants, some even Illegal immigrants. Just because your parents earned the right does that mean you have also?

The Policy makes perfect sense, considering that to be eligible you need to have been present in the U.S for 5 years.

Another misunderstanding is that Illegal immigrants are on welfare. That is just hilarious and shows how ignorant some people are. In order to apply for welfare you need to have had a legal job, as in you need SSN.

Lastly Immigrants are doing Jobs Americans don't want. I was Speaking to a friend who desperately needed a job. I told her to Look up jobs and there where a few available, but they applied for a company who did not have jobs available. I asked her, why?. They Responded, "Because the other jobs don't suit me".

So, the Obama administration's "courageous decision to grant innocent, undocumented youth protection from deportation makes good sense from a moral, economic, and political perspective"? In other words to go against the constitution is now moral, and makes good sense from an economic and political perspective? Forget about the 20+ million Americans that are out of work or under-employed. It is "moral" to keep them displaced in favor of granting illegals jobs? This makes economic sense?

Well, I suppose it all does if you want to start a second revolution.......... And I'm not talking about at the polls either.

Illegal immigration is hurting our economy more now than ever with our financial difficulties and taxes going up every year. US citizens want to help the world but we cant afford it. The government keeps making decisions for the US population and have no idea how these so called wonderful humanitarian liberal ideas turned into law and policies will affect our society, schools, hospitals, welfare, housing, and lets not forget the jobs. These people are not doing the jobs americans dont want. Thats the biggest lie ever told. They are being hired illegally at lower wages and no labor rights. Immigrants are a bargain labor force to the American business. They provide labor for slave wage. Then they are forced to live in cramped apartments because they dont make enough to afford 1 apartment per family. Nearly 40 percent of illegal immigrants who work off the books go on welfare to help support their growing families. Its not fair. But as long as the American Business needs slaves, Americans will have to somehow flip the bill. The thing here is Americans are broke. Opportunities have disappeared even for our college grads. The blue collar worker is permanently unemployed while an illegal took his job for half his salary, off the books and for years will not pay 1 dime in any type of tax. Something is wrong here.
