Huh?
"The families of 14 illegal Mexican immigrants are suing the US government because all 14 died from heat exposure in the desert when they were trying to illegally enter the USA across the USA/Mexico border. The attorneys state that the USA Government makes it too hard on people trying to enter the US legally and they have to resort to illegal entry that is unsafe."
"Washington state is about to pass legislation to guarantee illegal immigrants in-state tuition at state colleges. So, a U.S. citizen from, say, Iowa, who wants to attend college at a state college in Washington will have to pay a higher out-of-state tuition, but the illegal immigrants will get to pay the lower in-state tuition subsidized by taxpayers. "
Sometimes the light’s all shinin’ on me;
Other times I can barely see.
Lately it occurs to me what a long, strange trip it’s been.

We have similar issues here with our "boat people"
They sue the government and expect not to be kept in a detention centre and all sorts of ridiculous stuff..I say as soon as they land send them home on a plane..the expense of the ticket is much less than the cost of everything else..For the genuine refugees..well I don't know how to tell if they are....many of ours are common criminals paid by their country to leave as refugees...

Boat People?
What are boat people? Where do they come from? I know, of course, boats.

The reason I posted this is because at the time I was trying to go to college I couldn't afford the tuition, and now Washington state is trying to make it possible for illegal aliens to attend they're in-state colleges for free. Are they crazy?

Send a few home in a bag. Maybe they'll get the hint.
I'm being facitous though. A lot of immagrant workers perform jobs that natural born Americans won't bother rolling out of bed to do. I think it's a mistake and an injustice to provide them with social services unless they have become citizens. You've got to give a guy credit who's willing to leave his country to come here and work. But, you've got to give a guy the boot who's coming here to leech... Offering free services is going to attract leeches.
Deliver me from Swedish furniture!

Australia is a huge island with thousands and thousands of kilometres of uncontrolled and unpatrolled landing spots...Hence the "boat people" refugess that escaped their country by small fishing boats, crammed like sardines with hundreds and hundreds of people onboard.......they were originally from Vietnam and south East Asia but our recent "boat people" have been afghans and Iraqis
Many Many boats didn't make it...they have like traders that take the money around $10000us last I heard, each and they stick them on a teency weency broken down barnacles crusted rust bucket to sail across to us...Many were simply sunk by the traders......some sunk because they just were destined to sink....and some made it to our shores....

Right, we have the same problem with Cubans boatin in to Florida. But my question is what country do the majority of the boat people come from? Meaning, where do they set sail from? I never knew that Australia had that problem.
Hehe, I would probably try to sneak in there too. You have such a beautiful country.

Well
Then there is Canada
Immigrants Poem
I cross ocean,
poor and broke,
Take bus,
see employment folk.
Nice man treat me
good in there,
Say I need to
see welfare.
Welfare say,
"You come no more,
We send cash
right to your door."
Welfare checks,
they make you wealthy,
Medicare it keep
you healthy!
By and by,
I got plenty money,
Thanks to you,
Canadian dummy.
Write to friends
in motherland,
Tell them 'come
fast as you can.'
They come in turbans
and Ford trucks,
I buy big house
with welfare bucks
They come here,
we live together,
More welfare checks,
it gets better!
Fourteen families,
they moving in,
But neighbor's patience wearing thin.
Finally, white guy
moves away,
Now I buy his house,
and then I say,
"Find more aliens
for house to rent."
And in the yard
I put a tent.
Send for family
they just trash,
But they, too,
draw the welfare cash!
Everything is
very good,
And soon we
own the neighborhood.
We have hobby --
it's called breeding,
Welfare pay
for baby feeding.
Kids need dentist?
Wife need pills?
We get free!
We got no bills!
Canadian crazy!
He pay all year,
To keep welfare
running here.
We think Canada
darn good place!
Too darn good for
the white man race.
If they no like us,
they can scram,
Got lots of room in
Pakistan.

There are airports in Haiti that tell people which cities in the U.S. and Canada offer the best welfare to illegals. I think San Francisco tops most of the lists.

As I've said before, had I been a single mother from a foreign country, I could have received those university loans I could not get as a Canadian father.
No matter how good it is, our beer and maple syrup don't make up for bureaucratic stupidity of that scale.
I have to go frag something now.
