First, you can't "outsource" your land to another country so that's not even a valid argument.
Second, I'm not sure of the exact stats of how many illegals are doing which jobs but I have heard that they comprise 25% of migrant farm workers. So....who makes up the other 75%?
Third, while they may not intend on "taking over the world", many illegal Mexican immigrants have stated that they intend to "retake" the portions of the US that they believe, mistakenly, is still theirs.
Fourth, I don't think that homeless people should be compared to the illegals. It's not an apples to apples comparison. Besides, the claim that they are taking jobs that American's won't do implies that they are taking them from people who would otherwise be doing them. Not that they're taking them from those who would rather beg. For that matter, if a homeless person doesn't live in an agricultural area, they can't very well grab a picking bag.
Fifth, illegal aliens contribute very little to our economy. True, they pay sales tax on items they buy but they don't contribute to any of the social services that they use. They don't pay income tax. They send large portions of their income to their families rather than spend it here. And any area that has a significant population of illegals will tell you that they are a drain on their economy and a drain on their social programs. If that's not at least contributing to "ruining" our country I can't figure what would be.
Sixth, there should be no need for bilingual employees in most businesses because English should be the the "legal" language of our country.
Seventh, what many people seem to want to overlook is that they are ILLEGAL. Why would anyone be ok with this? They broke our laws to be here and they break them every day in which they are here. Period.
Finally, I would like to make an analogy. If you're ok with a person, any person of any color, gender, religion or race coming to this country and using our resources, being given health care, being fed and in general being taken care of, simply because they do some work, then I suggest that you post your home address. That way, anyone who wants to can come into your home when you're unaware of it, do some house cleaning and when you become aware of their presence...YOU become responsible for feeding them, clothing them and providing for their healthcare.
