Not only is Michoacan the home state of our so-called sister city, but the home of most of our legal and illegal immigrants here today, according to their own boastful news articles. News articles in papers that will tell the WHOLE story and describe how the state leaders of Michoacan have printed a booklet of instructions on how to crash the U.S. border and sneak into America illegally. Why do they do this? They also tell of their complete economic reliance on us the U.S., for their sole support of the families of our Mexican workers still living in Mexico. They support these families on the money that is sent home by the legal and illegal immigrants, (the vast majority of them are illegal) to the tune of $18 billion in a normal year, (only $13 billion last year in our "tough economy and crack-down on illegal entries"). This money is sent "home" to Michoacan basically tax free, in cash money orders from your favorite check-cashing store here. If you work that up to fully realize the cost to us of these illegals, the immigrants will send a majority of their pay home - up to 75%. Because that leaves them almost nothing to live on here, they claim for benefits against our welfare system, where DSHS employees are forbidden to verify citizenship, under our current Governor Gargoyle, or to enforce the rules for citizenship to receive them.
Report ViolationIf you would include the WHOLE story, you wouldn't feel so sorry for them and we would pick better "friends" to glorify as well.
SIgn I-409 and stop this madness, especially now that our entire country is on the verge of bankruptcy - we certainly don't need 35 million new "citizens" to support in either our labor market or our welfare system.
