    Massive negative consequences of illegal immigration on today's and yesterdays economy. It is all encompassing! Obama, McCain, Governors, Mayors, Councilors, City managers take notice! 80 percent of the American people are watching!

    Overpopulation, traffic congestion, urban sprawl, pollution, environmental damage, water, oil, gas, energy diminishing resources, contagious diseases, lack of affordable housing, depressed wages of US citizens, underground economic, fraudulent documents, identity theft, Sanctuary cities, predatory businesses tax evasion, soaring nationwide crime rate growth , increased taxpayer burdens, $$$ going across the border, overseas, overcrowded schools, uneducated legal children, overcrowded prisons, inadequate health care for legal residents, but free health care for illegal immigrants.

    The balkanization of our communities and a large and growing population with loyalty to other Nations. Just read this disturbing revelation of costs to the Taxpayer: GOOGLE these sites! Find the truth? numbersusa, snopes- under-politics, fairus, capsweb, americanpatrol, libertypost, vdare. Our politicians must endorse the Federal SAVE ACT (H.R.4088) before the next AMNESTY bill.

    In today's society where we have sanctuary cities refusing to cooperate with ICE, when a plant asks the government for help identifing illegals, it should help them. Agriprocessors is not the first food plant to ask for help, get rejected, then get raided and fined.

    We have enough trouble with people refusing to help that we shouldnt refuse help to those who are cooperating.

    that being said, a 16' high concrete fence, tripple the number of border-patrol agents, and mass-deportation would solve most of this.

    Viva la Re-Conquista!!
