I am an avid believer that the immigration laws need to be reformed, just in a different way. Most of you know that Albert is a legal resident Alien in this country. To get his visa we did everything the government asked us too. To me it was way to much. I believe that in order for someone to legally enter this country they have to go through extensive background checks....but that's it. Between the forms we had to file, the fees we had to pay and the 2 36 hour bus trips to La paz we spent over $1000 to get here. Most immigrants who come here, come b/c they need the money. They wouldn't have the money to get here the lawful way. That's just one of the many changes needed to be made.
Let them come legally so they can be tax payers. Most of you might think, well they are just paying for the welfare they are using....not true if they are legal resident. Albert cannot receive welfare as long as he is just a resident.
My major problem with illegal immigrants are only with the bad ones. The ones who get drunk, cause problems, and never get punished for their actions. Those are the only ones we need to keep out. I saw this on a news sight and thought I'd share it.......

WOW. Pretty much sums it up doesn't it.
I would like to add one more thing:
Press 2 if you would like to hear this message in Spanish.
I love that. So true though.
Yes but who's fault is that. Our governments. They benefit too much from having the "illegals" here. That's why they refuse to take care of the issue. I don't blame the people trying to get here because we would do the same if were in their shoes. I blame our government for caring too much about what they get out of it, instead of peoples' safety and well being, on both ends.
Am not so sure about that since i have never heard of it really happening. But compared to the other countries mentioned there above, i think i can atleast agree that America is kind of the best yeah!I Like yo blog yeah!
