Seeds for Immigration Policy Debate Could Be Planted in Spending Markup - Page 3

Tell that to the IMF, or the World Bank or the United Nations who categorize countries based on GDP and other socioeconomic factors every year.

I don't think Mexico is considered an industrialized nation yet, but it's probably considered a NIC - certainly not a developing nation.

Yep, its considered a NIC.

Arguing on the Internet is like the Special Olympics. Even if you win, you're still retarded!

give up and now we're gonna debate on the semantics of economic categorization of mexico? rofl.

but yes, the term third world country is outdated and shouldnt be used

it certainly is a developing nation as opposed to developed nation such as the US, albeit some controversy over the usage of the term.

yeah, mexico is now shoulder to shoulder with malaysia, indonesia, and south africa. bravo, mexico has come a long way.

You answered your own question there.
For it to be "most people" it would need to be a majority of the population which it is not. Maybe "most people" on Fox News but not "most people" in America.

So you are wrong.


border security may need to be improved immensely, but not before CIR can be considered (or how you put it "before we address the illegal population").

So you are wrong.


The analogy of violent crime versus speeding tickets was to demonstrate how "focusing on the biggest number" is not always the most effective strategy.

...

"No Comprendo?" oh man your racist comment really hurt me there "rofl"



He said that in an interview after a Border Security hearing where people who actually know what they are talking about when it comes to the border discussed the state of border security... people like hmm... Customs and Border Protection officials. Even it was only Schumer his opinion compared to whose? yours? that's a no brainer (no pun intended).


You said the mexican border is the only problem we should deal with here...

Please, do not flatter yourself.


On second thought, I'll allow you the opportunity to indulge, at this point I could only pity what unimaginable measures you would surmount to in a sift of the slightest trickle of hope.

As a person living as an undocumented immigrant in the United States you have little room to talk.

I hate to break it to you, top-shot, but you have little if anything to do with the success America has achieved.

why dont you two guys go get some coffee and meet in real life so you can have a long discussion.

this forum isnt for that kind of stuff. i dont see how its helping DREAM get passed. just give it up. no one wins, and if you do, who cares its just the internet. some people have a hard time understanding that the internet is not real life.

move on.

obviously you have hard time interpreting sentences. ok, nm. as for your assumption that most americans believe that the border is secure enough, im sorry to break it to you, but thats purely your opinion derived from schumer's quote.

10 months ago, only 14% of americans thought that the government is doing enough to secure the border.

granted, obama has spent more money and man power near the border since, but i have to wonder how much of that percentage has gone up. sorry, i have a baseline figure from less than a year ago to back up my claim, and you dont. nice try though.


rofl, your level of knowledge in this matter continues to disappoint me. actually, everyone with a slightest clue know that border security comes first before CIR, both democrats and republicans. they wont address CIR unless they address border security first. even president obama puts border security first before any immigration reform. this is all basic stuff.





just to let you know, analogy works by comparing 2 similar school of thoughts, not comparing apples to oranges like you have done lol. im comparing pure numbers while you are comparing the severity of either two with that analogy. i know its hard for you but think about it.

i think most people would agree with me that since majority of illegal population is from mexico and the most illegal immigration is occuring through the souther border, we should focus on that. it doesnt solve all the problem, but it sure solves good portion of it. but hey! since you are so adamant about this, so whats your take on "the most effective strategy"? care to explain? you'll probably say " i dont wanna waste time with you" and cop out. rofl.

fact of the matter is, congress and the president already see border enforcement as priority over CIR. dont believe me? google it. its so easy a caveman can do it. rofl.


your constant failed attempt to correct me and ridicule me is really becoming pathetic. racist? im a racist because i used spanish? i learned 4 years of spanish in high school and college. rofl. que burro!





Schumer said that the number of people captured along the border with mexico between Oct. 1 and May 15 was down 27% from the same period the previous year. if 100 people crossed before and only 73 are now crossing, thats called improvement, not secure. this is sort of the argument that people will talk about. you have to start seeing things from both side of the aisle instead of sticking your head in the sand and filter out what you dont want to hear. its called, ironically, using your brain as you have so eloquently put by processing information in your own head and coming to your own conclusion instead of relying on others to spoonfeed you what the results mean. rofl.




now i know you have reading comprehension problems as well. where in that post does it imply that i said mexican border is the only problem we should deal with? if i say "i love my mother" you interpret that as i only love my mother but not my father? again, stay in school.



i dont have to flatter myself having this debate with you its pretty funny how you twist and squirm with every attempt to say something remotely worthwhile to be a comeback.


ROFL....what?
in a sift of the slightest trickle of hope? huh? what? are you actually trying to sound articulate? dude, if you are gonna say something, at least try to make sense. use the dictionary. ask your friend. something. que raro!
