[QUOTE="donner, post: 1882138, member: 277"] As Cards81fan, this is overly emotional and useless to any form of real debate. If someone is here and paying to send money home then that mere act is contributing to our economy by the sheer fact that wiring money is not free. Oh, and they probably also consume food. Not to mention the labor they are providing whatever job they hold. The person who hit your wife's car doesn't have to learn english to have a better life, not to mention that by being here they probably have provided for a better life for his or her children. I'm not saying the action of being here illegally is right, just that your logic has a big flaw in it. It might be bad for your sister, but being bi-lingual isn't a bad thing and our teachers certainly should be rewarded for speaking multiple languages be it spanish or chinese. Oh, and FYI we don't have an official language in this country so you don't need to fear a latino president. [/QUOTE]
