immigration is a spin topic. at current funding levels they do add a burden on the system but this wouldn't even be an issue if the US were actually running the govt like Norway or other progressive EU countries... you can't really compare the US to these countries because they aren't engaged in capitalist imperialism. 40% of our GDP is spent on defense (funny term really) and god knows how much we hand out to every country on earth to payoff other governments for allowing us to do business there. it adds up to one hell of a chunk of change. when are the people going to realize that the US govt is neo-fascist and the real "citizens" of our country are the corporations they serve. they are robbing our country blind and selling it off at a record pace. I guarantee that if you added it all up that foreign countries own over 30% of the US in real estate and corporate assets. this is the real issue... the system makes us slaves to it...
