[GCFL-discuss] of racism and sorts

[gcfl-discuss at gcfl.net]

I second that opinion Dave!  I work with a immigrant from Mexico, she does not have a social security number, but she figures her taxes every week and pays them in.  She says that she wants to be able to become a citizen someday and she won't have problems because her dues are paid!

  Jeff, when you get out of school you should go abroad and see first hand how people in other countries live. They come over here for a better life just as our ancestors did. Go to India or China. Did you watch PBS this week? A bunch of people were put together and lived  life in 1628 for 4 months. It wasn't easy. Try to imagine what its like for a Chinese kid who speaks no English being put into a public school, I see it all the time. Kids learn English fast because they have to.

  Who says that they pay no taxes and how do you know. Why do you think that the government gives away money, where are you getting this information.

  Dave

               Ok I'll bite on this one. I know this has nothing to do with  what  Sam wrote but I thought I'd mention it. I know one person that dislikes a lot of the different cultures bacause they can come over here, start up a gas business or whatever business they want, pay no taxes & our hard earned "american" dollars are basically given to them & we have to work for every cent plus pay taxes & they don't. I DID NOT SAY WHAT MY OPINION WAS BEACASUE I REFUSE  TO SAY ANY PERSONEL FEELINGS ABOUT THIS SUBJECT but this is just how a friend of mine feels. I will say one thing. Even though it is hard sometimes to accept different cultures from ours we need to remember something, WE ALL WERE CREATED BY GOD & GOD LOVES EACH & EVERY ONE OF US.
