Immigrants bring crime, destroy heritage.....
This is interesting. Amidst the debates surrounding the U.S. policies on immigration the italian leader Berlusconi has this to say:"We don't want Italy to become a multiethnic, multicultural country. We are proud of our traditions," Berlusconi said Monday on state-run radio.
Berlusconi's government has put in place a tough immigration policy, including legislation cracking down on illegal immigration. The 2002 law allows only immigrants with job contracts to obtain residency permit.
"We want to open (our borders) to foreigners who flee countries where their lives or liberties are at risk," said Berlusconi, adding those who come to Italy to work also are welcome. "We don't want to welcome all those who come here to bring about damage and danger to Italian citizens."

Interesting how some people can have it so right, and sum it up so well. I don't know anyone that wants to deny the same rights Americans have to people who come here looking for help. But the way illegals are going about getting that help is underhanded, and undermines the hard working tax-paying help-me-through-helping-everyone that america is too freely doling out. No one is saying shut down the borders, but do prosecute those breaking the law by sidestepping oh-so important legal pathways to immigration and eventually citizenship. Why would any of us work if a neighboring country was to allow us, through illegal means, to enter, and obtain work, then drivers licences, eventually giving us everything we need through their tax-payer supported welfare system. We wouldn't. We would bleed that country dry with a complete lack of regard for those who made the whole thing possible. Think about it. It is time to start taking this country back. Put a foot down and stop this thing that is already far too common place. If we, as a country, keep bending to this kind of parasitic entity how long will it be before we break? And who will help us with government programs when the government has given away its resources to those who gave nothing in return? Take it back.

Interesting that you brought up Italy. My boss is Italian, and he speaks freely about excatly that which you posted.
"but do prosecute those breaking the law by sidestepping oh-so important legal pathways to immigration and eventually citizenship"
why are these legal pathways so important? I think this is the crux of our difference of opinion.
in the same vein, what is the necessity to tie citizenship to the ability to be legally employed? couldn't citizenship and employment eligability be separate things?
I thought there already was a "working Visa" in place... One problem I see here is scale. I feel the legalities are so important because of the quantity of people immigrating. There are already provisions for those who choose to be here, and need work, but to make it 'easier'? There is a reason it's NOT so easy and that is outright abuse of the system.
Great to here from you guys! How's everything going?
