...which made perfect equitable sense......they came here to fulfill a labor need, performed their task and returned home with their earnings to support their families....makes perfect sense as in a win-win...US production benefitted and the migrant families as well as their home countries benefitted (ie. disposable income to be spent).....seems to me that the system worked.....so now "new laws and court rulings" shift the burden back on LEGAL US citizens for handouts, fringes, etc with NO impetus to return home.....so if they want to stay and become legal, what the hell happened to the LEGAL WAY via Ellis Island?....sure I'm an independent conservative and would help those WHO NEED HELP BUT ARE WILLING TO HELP THEMSELVES, but I loathe parasites on MY nickel who know how to milk the system.....
