Rainband...... you want us to relate about you being gay even though I have never been gay. I am not following you on that transexual issue about how you can't relate because you are not that way. tim offered his opinion and trying to relate and was slam dunked saying he was judging you. I am confused as heck on this.

Thats the whole Problem here..I WASN"T talking about anyone on this board. I was talking about the Decsion in Ohio..thats where this thread stemed from :roll:

Too bad all those "illegal aliens" contribute to our great economy. If they all left, this country would be in the crapper.

Last time I checked, I didn't see too many white people standing in line to orange-pickers. These poor illegal aliens risk their life coming to this country, get absolutely no benefits (though they finally will thanks to Bush), have despicable living conditions and get treated like dirt by "religous" Americans. It's sickening.

Well, there would be more of those"white" people standing in line for those jobs if they paid at least minimum wage now wouldn't there. But since they have the illegals to work for them, they can get away with paying them substandard wages and line their pockets a little more. All without paying taxes on the wages. And as for benefits, they do not deserve them if they are here illegally. If they want to live here and work and get benefits. There are a few requirements IMO.
1. Speak English***
2. File for a work Visa
3. Apply for a legal job
This will lead to getting an honest job, for minimum wage, and possible benefits.

The more illegals we support, the less of our own citizens can get assistance when they really need it. I have nothing at all against immigration into this country, as long as it is done in the correct manner, and does not make any of our citizens suffer because of it.

And as for our Country being in the "crapper" if they were not here. That statement belongs in the crapper. How do you figure they contribute to our economy?? First of all, they pay no taxes, becasue they are paid less than minimum wage, and if their employer reported their income, they would be in big trouble. Second, most of theswe illegals either cross the borders daily to work and bring their money back accross the border to spend it, or they send it back to their families. So the moneyt they are getting is going to another countries economy, not ours. I have seen both of these scenarios first hand.

Excellent post Blizzard

Tim- I can relate to what you're talking about regarding assistance. When my husband fell off a roof back in 1995, we tried that route. I was a cashier at the time making $6.50 hr. Because I made so much money
they would only give us $70 in food stamps. Mind you hubby was in a wheel chair and we didn't know if or when he would be able walk again. We coudn't even get WIC for Michael because they said he was too old. He was 8 at the time. I got a little raise and they cut it in half. Finally had to call the congressman's office to see what they could do about helping Tom get disability checks,because SS didn't think we needed it. Yeah, I know what you're talking about.

Deb, it appears that the system is set up in a manner that DISCOURAGES people from trying to work and make an honest living, doesn't it?

[streetsoldier]

Oh, they want you to work...until your @$$ falls off...but they don't want anyone to have to STOP working, even if disabled, and reap what benefits they have stored up.

There was a term once for people like us, timNms..."useless eaters" (Nazi Germany), and there is an "endowed chair" Professor at Princeton who describes us in much the same manner, trying to alleviate the tax burden by espousing "non-elective euthanasia" (read: if someone can't PRODUCE in our society, kill them..."humanely" of course).

To think we have people like THAT teaching in our prestigious universities...

Why should the money I pay for taxes be used on the same thing as everyone elses.I get NO !@#@!*& benifits from it... Wether anyone has the balls to admit it or not this Ban on Benifits is Segregation Allow us to be unified at Least..yea I kind of buy the argument about religion and thats why they don't want Gays to get married..But OUR BENIFITS..thats plain BS and anyone who says different needs to wake up and smell the coffee. Yeah they are picking on Gays right now but before long..... Gays won't be the lonly ones losing their "rights"..Like I said in previous Posts there are more Gay People in this world than they realize and if they keep pushing us down and trying to segregate us...theres a rude awakening about to happen. May God Have mercy on their souls. As it says in the bible..There is only one judge

White people and Gays have the least amount of right's.......in our country
