Issues survey

Post by VidmanII »

What issues are most important to you as we head towards a presidential election in the fall?

PLEASE TRY TO JUST TALK ISSUES AND NOT TURN THIS INTO A PARTISAN RANT.

You may list them in order of importance to you if you so choose. :yo

Amen to that. We need to shut it down totally. Not allow them in at all. We can't take care of our own that are already here. But they sure as hell want to allow more to come in who want to get onto public assitance the second they get here. Just amazes me on the first of the month when your in a grocery store how many people are paying for food with food stamps. And then they go outside and get into a Newer Ford Expidition or a Navigator. Just pisses me off to no end. And i'm in there buying a few items with the last bit of cash i have and go out and get into a old tired VW that i can't afford to fix like it needs.

Well, i think immigration and jobs go hand and hand... so as greg said... launch them leeches back to their own country. you get rid of the aliens and that makes more jobs for the people.

really though, it doesn't seem like it'd be THAT hard to do. Just fortify the HELL out of the border, and send anyone w/o valid identification for being here to wherever it is they came from.

I heard once that, at the rate that hispanics are immigrating to the US, that by 2020, 1/3 of the US's population would be hispanic!

**Please note, this is not meant to be a racial comment, but rather, I found it an interesting figure if the number of illegal's entering this country stays the same as it has been.

What are the numbers anyway? Isn't it like 20-50 million illegals from mexico a year??? I heard it once, but now I forget. It's pretty crazy though.

I can't decide, they're all important.

Mostly Jobs and Economy, Illegal Immigration, and Iraq; in that order.
This one's not the same as the ones that aren't different:
