Why illegal immigrants in the US should not receive government benefits

Why should we give illegal immigrants anything but a swift kick in the butt and a bus ticket back to Mexico? What is it about the phrase Illegal immigrant that our government does not understand. The sad fact of the matter is that they do understand and they just don't have the backbone to stand up and do anything about it. Our government has gotten to be a joke and is spineless and everybody knows it so they take advantage of it. What has happened to our great country. In my opinion there are several things that have led to this pathetic situation. First of all there are too many Democrats and to many Republican and not ENOUGH AMERICANS, Most of the politicians were lawyers before they got into politics and that is bad in itself. I there any single group of people that are more dishonest and self centered than a bunch of lawyers. I doubt it very seriously. I just don't understand why our government doesn't understand ILLEGAL. Of course ninety percent of the stuff that George w Bush and Dick Cheney gave done since they were elected is just that, ILLEGAL

I saw an article the other day that detailed all the different things involved but, dealing with illegal immigrants and the problems they cause costs our country three hundred and thirty eight BILLION dollars a year. No wonder our national debt is sky rocketing every day.
Take a way three hundred and thirty eight billion dollars a year for five years and it sure would help the national debt figures. For just one years of that money we could build one heck of a wall all along the Mexican border. And if we could get George and Dick to quit being so selfish and bring our troops back from overseas where they are getting literally murdered for no good cause, we would have enough troops to have a guard every five to ten feet all along the border on top of the all. If we don't get this situation turned around and quick in another couple years we will all be speaking Spanish and the national food will be refried beans.

All the money that our government is just flat out giving these illegal immigrants could go along ways toward bailing out the social security system for our legal citizens that have paid social security taxes all there working lives. It could do something about the high costs of medical insurance which was caused by sue happy lawyers. they could subsidies the cost of drugs which have gotten ridiculous. ILLEGALs should not be given anything. Can you even imagine what would happen if a bunch of our people
