The special-interest-racists only amplify what they differ with; never did they point out his warnings against unfettered globalism; an economic fantasy that has yielded as much bitter fruit for ‘their’ people, as well as the rest of us. We will all be looking to Lou’s next ‘incarnation’ and what revelations he’ll deem worthy of release. May the gods protect him, his loved ones…and those of us who still believe in justice. - LUTHER G.

That country is japan. last i checked the cost for a cantaloupe is about $40 US dollars. I don't advocate hiring illegal aliens to work in farming but that is the reality. I fact i believe that farmers that do should be heavy penalized. just remember that there will be consequences be prepared to pay for them. I am. unfortunately it will have little impact on hospitals as illegals aren't the only people that are uninsured. Uninsured patients often can't pay sending hospitals into bankruptcy. of course the migrant farm worker would be well paid, unionized and have insurance so that would definitely help. guess we just gotta get used to $40 dollar fruit. - trung nguyen Wed, 11 Nov 2009 16:00:51 +0100 http://jbs.org/immigration-blog/5564-hasta-la-vista-lou-dobbs#comment-2789 If so, why don't we hear Latino leaders expressing any remorse over losing so many citizens? Is it possible that these Latinos are being paid to come here? God-fearing people follow the Commandments, one of which is "Thou Shall Not Steal." Much easier to steal from your neighbor than to create your own. And by crossing the border illegally, a person has already broken the law, and branded himself forever as a dishonest cheater. Lou Dobbs speaks the truth. Therefore, a smear campaign must be launched and he must be vilified. As always, the goal is to silence the opposition.

A border is there to define the land that belongs to a people. Just as Mexico values the conservation of their national integrity and identity. So too does the US have every right to want to conserve their geographical, cultural, economic, and political integrity. After thousands of years of this implicit understanding between countries, all with their own immigratin quotas, why all of the sudden is there one country, the US, that has to unilateraly give up their rights under international law? What I do disagree with is depriving immigrants, legal or not, of their right to education and health benefits IF they have contributed to the national economy. The US can't expect to profit from their labor and then turn around and not provide them benefits. Legal or not, it doesn't serve anybody for the US to have unhealthy, uneducated residents. They opened the package, used the product, they pay for it. The children are certainly not to blame and it's just inhumane and ultimately costly. I think a clear distinction should be made between people who come here to mooch and those who work. I know many hard-working earnest Mexicans, but I also know a lot of Mexicans who are a detriment to this country. I think the US has the sovereign right to choose who enters THEIR country. I am part Mexican and grew up in Mexico. I love Mexico and its people. I suspect Lou Dobbs does, too. - V Martinez Thu, 29 Oct 2009 19:05:45 +0100 http://jbs.org/immigration-blog/5564-hasta-la-vista-lou-dobbs#comment-2764 Geez, if these people would only fight this hard in their "own" homeland they would no longer feel a need to leave. - AreWeFreeOrWhat Thu, 29 Oct 2009 16:05:00 +0100 http://jbs.org/immigration-blog/5564-hasta-la-vista-lou-dobbs#comment-2757 Solo Un Pueblo Informado Puede Esperar A Retener - Y Ser Digno DE - Esa Libertado Con Lo Cual Se Ha Benedecio Nuestra Pais.
