Given choice between someone with the gumption and energy to get out of a bad situation and try to better themselves by their own hard work and sacrifice, and any given republican fat cat, guess who I think is better for our country, the GNP, annnnd etc.......

All those jobs that the complainers wouldn't do themselves, the immigrants are often happy to do, as it's better than living in the country they left. If the complaint is that some of the money earned by immigrants is being sent to family in their originating country, instead of being spent locally in America, then those complainers better not be buying products made in any country other than America.
