After some thought I remembered that my uncle used to work for the IRS in El Paso, He said that Mexicans who work in the US pay taxes and do not file for what they should get as a return, if they did it would cost the US billions, and this was back in the 1970's. I would assume that it is the same now.

It sounds like you see only what you want to see. And don't see what you don't want to see.

Maybe the lazy ones stayed in their country.

Thank you for posting this. As a white woman I bring up how nasty white folks are, does not please some but I do not care.
I love diversity, sadly I have felt the animosity from some in ethnic areas where I've shopped or traveled and I can understand. I do not understand what the white man has done thru out history to non-whites and continues to do today.
It is a two way street and I want/wish we could all just get along.

Immigrants are by definition emigrants from their home country ... they are the risk takers, usually entrepreneurial, prepared to gamble everything by leaving friends, family and all they know to start a new life. They may not all succeed, but they will all put in maximum effort. The indiginous indolent do not like to see their success (or anyones come to that)

Without question. People feed Mexicans so much shit for standing outside of Home Depot looking for odd jobs or coming across the border for work, but at least these folks are trying. What the hell is some pan handler doing to contribute to society?

I totally agree.

It's always white men holding crappy cardboard signs:

Homeless vet
Anything helps

Latinos are hard-working people.

I do agree. They are very good folks.

Sorry, I'll find another corner........

True

It is very sad that we treat Latino people the way we do. My grandson is adopted from Guatemala and I worry a lot
