Who here believes immigration reform means amnesty?

Roberth the video is not talking about illegals sucking our system dry, and trust me i am just as appalled as you when it comes to that, it is just countering the idea that these immigrants are granted amnesty with immigration reform. They still have to go through the same process that everyone did before. It just giving more work visas so we can collect taxes on them with a one time chance to do it right, not to mention most will fail to complete the process anyway and be deported.

My interpretation of the video is much harsher than yours.

The intent of the video is to garner support for the poor illegal who almost has to !gasp! pay a whole $1000 for the privilege of attempting to become a citizen.

I read b/t the lines and correctly surmised that the reason the video talks about the fees is because they are attempting to show that the illegals are going to pay their own way, the reality is those fees and taxes will never be paid except by the net tax payers of this country. Most illegals will be net tax receivers for their entire stay in this country, legal or otherwise, simply because they aren't smart enough to do anything except dig ditches and create anchor babies. Illegals will never be the next Bill Gates or Henry Ford or anyone with any ambition beyond capturing the next government handout and the state will happily fill out the paperwork so the illegals won't have to learn English either.
