Money is a powerful motivator. This can be a good thing or a bad thing, depending on circumstances. Money’s motive power is a good thing when it stimulates us to get an education, put in an honest day’s work for an honest day’s pay, and save for the future. On the other hand, money’s motive power can have a dark side as well, stimulating some to commit crime in an effort to obtain it.

I do not blame illegal immigrants for wanting a better life. The same "DRIVE" caused America to be discovered. I blame the people who hire them....BIG TIME. They should serve jail sentences and be fined for all taxes that were not paid. The illegals need to be deported. Bottom line. There is nothing wrong with wanting to be an American citizen. That is why we have a Naturalization Process. What part of ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT do people fail to understand.

"The methodology for counting unauthorized immigrants relies on a lot of assumptions which call into question the accuracy of the results. Twelve million may be the most popular number cited for illegal immigrants in the U.S at present, but some estimates, like one from Bear Stearns, believe the count is actually closer to a whopping 20 million."

You think that may free up a few jobs?

When the deer population increases beyond sustainable levels, the Ag dept issues more permits.

My lips are sealed as tight as a Teen Challenge escapee bulletin.
