This is a good reason to take a breather from all immigration. 40% of the growth is illegal immigration. We need to stop and try to absorb the people that are already here

Well, the official US Population has incresed by one third since I was born. I remain childless, by choice, and have yet to kill anyone. I think an award should be given to me: I will call it the"no harm done, thanks" award.

Maybe YOU will get your reward on judgement day, but I will be headed to happy hour today to celebrate my AWARD.

Reward and award are very different ideas.

Err.. no..

Low IQ types aren't going to be paying for anything. They'll just drag down average middle class wages and deplete our public infrastructure.

Massive immigration is jeopardizing SS and all other public programs.

Like the high IQ's on this post have ever contributed to anything but a cross burning. You have to have jobs and pay taxes which none of you do.

where would our population be if...
1) the illegals and the children, including those born here, were kicked out.
2) if all the baby daddies and baby mommas acted responsibly and did not have their litters while living on the taxpayers dime.
300 million - how much of that number has been made up as a result of irresponsible breeding within the poor communities, or as a result of illegals crossing the border?
You racist bastard!!! Poor communities are not the only communitites that have a great deal of kids.

I guess I am the exception. No cross burns to date, and plenty of income on which I was taxed to carry the people who earn less.

Download this song by folk singer Fred Small:

"Too Many People Having Too Many Babies"

Worth a listen, or at least read the lyrics!

Well lets fix our system and do not let them continue to breed. If you have one mistake is okay but after that you are on your own. Or even better yet neuter everyone that has more than one child and living off the tax payers. This will send a message wrap it or loose it. If you cannot feed them do not breed them.

If you're already involved in a relationship, either you or your partner will want to make it more exciting and spontaneous. Is this a suggestion that will go down well?
