I have mixed opinions on this.  On one side I see where these folks are 
coming from, and looking at our legal system it's not always the easiest to 
immegrate to the US.  I'd like everyone in the world to have a chance to 
live like we do, and though the US is screwed-up, it's much better then many 
other places.  I have several friends who's family started out this way, but 
now they're a viable part of society -- stimming off from a couple who came 
to America for a better life.

On the other hand, I don't want to pay for these folks who come over and 
can't get work ... but I also don't like paying for the folks here legally 
that won't work.  I understand folks have hard times every so often, and 
these people I can see aid going to, but for someone who just won'tw ork for 
whatever reason I don't want my chink of the taxes going to that.

I think the immegration system needs to be greatly upgraded!
