[QUOTE="michaelnc4444, post: 2088149, member: 26525"] Though I agree with your sentiments about gay marriage, I agree less with your ideas about illegals. The reason farmers can't get Americans to pick their crops is because they can get illegals to do it cheaper. Force the illegals out and farmers will have no choice but to hire Americans. They may have to pay a bit more and I realize this could drive costs up on some foods, BUT, it generates a better society. When people work, they become proud, when proud they want to get more, then they work harder, get better jobs, etc... Plus, the more people we have working the better the economy becomes, better economy means less government spending, less spending means less deficit. As long as we allow others to "steal" work and pride from our citizens, we will continue to spiral down. As far as the immigrants that want to serve or that have advanced degrees, I think we should be leaving all the places we currently occupy, and bring our troops home. If we do that we need much fewer men and women in the military, therefore there really is no need for them to come for that reason. The folks with advanced degrees, we fast track them already; Doctors, scientists, engineers, you bet, we want as many as them that want to come here. [/QUOTE]
