Immigrants Don't Take Jobs From Americans, Fed Study Says - Polidicks

[QUOTE=Ridge;24575316]1. How is America imperalist? 2. Herp derp, pride is bad![/QUOTE] Nationalism isn't just pride. It's the arrogant belief that your nation is better than all others.

[QUOTE=Lambeth;24576028]Nationalism isn't just pride. It's the arrogant belief that your nation is better than all others.[/QUOTE] that's not all of it but that is a part of it in any case, the treatment of native americans in the past century have been a good example of nationalism

[QUOTE=FreeThinker;24570415]I hope there will be more immigrants in US to make it stop being so imperialist and nationalist.[/QUOTE] We have a very diverse population compared to other Western countries.

[QUOTE=thisispain;24576161]that's not all of it but that is a part of it in any case, the treatment of native americans in the past century have been a good example of nationalism[/QUOTE] I'd actually say that the Native Americans had the worst of it during the 19th Century. In the 20th, we started repaying them, and dedicating huge swaths of land to them where federal and state laws have no juridstiction, essentially their own countries, but with US food stamps.

:frog:

[QUOTE=FinalHunter;24576443]Electric Fence. I don't want Mexicans in my country that don't belong here. It's as bad as having a bunch of Nazis in the country.[/QUOTE] I would disagree with this statement. Comparing a group of people looking to get themselves a better life to a bunch of thugs that wanted to take over the world and kill off "lesser" races of humans is just sick and twisted.

[QUOTE=FinalHunter;24576443]Electric Fence. I don't want Mexicans in my country that don't belong here. It's as bad as having a bunch of Nazis in the country.[/QUOTE] How do people even think this.

[QUOTE=FinalHunter;24576443]Electric Fence. I don't want Mexicans in my country that don't belong here. It's as bad as having a bunch of Nazis in the country.[/QUOTE] The natives said the same thing about white people. This isn't your country.

[QUOTE=FinalHunter;24576630]God damn... you're right... I have to get out of here before they take over and limit us to small pieces of land. [editline]12:20AM[/editline] I don't even think we'll get any casinos either..[/QUOTE] :downs: The point I was making was you guys stole it from someone else, it's hardly your country.

the majority of them aren't that scary

I thought American companies that ship jobs overseas take more jobs from Americans.

No job stealers... now no anchor babies too?

There's so much crime on them, it's ridiculous. The only reason any of them stay in reservations is to try to retain their culture and not be forced to assimilate.

It's because they do jobs that Americans don't want. It also helps stable the problem of social security with all the damn old people.

[QUOTE=agnl;24569032]It doesn't take 20 years, shut the fuck up. I have German friends who immigrated here, and they got their green card after three years. Also, immigrants (more so Mexicans) do take jobs, and effect us. Honestly, if they were peaceful, and willing to learn English, that would be great. I could care less if that were the case. BUT, that isn't, and it turns out they effect me in a negative way. I can't get a fast food job because I have to be bilingual. And not like the Spanish that you speak in Spanish class. Have you ever heard a native Spanish speaker speak? It's a flow of noises, there's no enunciation. So if you aren't a native speaker, you can't understand, or get that job. Also, get the forms to immigrate while you're still in your country. And if you're country is a piece of shit, sorry, come over here, but leave your violent culture behind. Do you know how much my town, Santa Rosa, suffers from gang violence? Someone down the street from me got stabbed to death in their own house by a group of Mexicans at a house party. Also, don't give the whole "Canada would do [insert what Canada would do]". Canada would deport illegal immigrants in an INSTANT. Also, the reason our health care is shit? Illegals. Did you know if you get hurt and go to the ER, they can't deny you treatment? So what do you think you do if you aren't a citizen? Free health care from the ER. And they do it for just about anything, then they cant pay. That's why we're trying to do health care reform, because we're losing shitloads of money. EDIT: My highschool science teacher taught me something. When there is a research project, always look at who's doing the research. "FEDERAL RESERVE BANK OF SAN FRANCISCO" Seriously? A lot of information from SF is gonna be hard-core leftist. Also, before any retaliation posts come at me, post where you're from. I'll start, California.[/QUOTE] Pump the fucking breaks, bro. First off, I'm from Texas. I know what living with a large Mexican population is like. Second, I've had to take mandatory Spanish classes for three years. I'm not very good at it to say the least. Third, America is not a private club. America was made by immigrants, Immigration will always be a part of our history. Legal immigration is not a bad thing. There is no reason why you deserve a job more than a Mexican person who gained citizenship a month ago. It shouldn't be a matter of where you came from, but rather what your qualifications are. While I agree it would be nice for them to have to learn English. [editline]08:40PM[/editline] Plus you make it sound like I endorsed Illegal immigration. I despise illegal immigration, I think they should make it easier for honest, hardworking people to gain citizenship to our country so that people we catch coming in illegally are obviously here for criminal purposes. Like the stabbing you were talking about. Christ does nobody fucking read my posts anymore.

[QUOTE=FinalHunter;24576443]Electric Fence. I don't want Mexicans in my country that don't belong here. It's as bad as having a bunch of Nazis in the country.[/QUOTE] There already are Nazis in the country, you're one of them.
