[QUOTE="Patman, post: 1392416, member: 16962"] :laugh: Well ya' see that was the first story and a bit of a setup, true as it is. (BTW he did indeed go about working in the US harvesting corn legally). I also happen to have a very good friend that is from Mexico. He is an architect by trade and is married with two children. Now sure it would be easy to work here illegally even in his chosen licensed & skilled trade. He didn't want that so he applied for his green card and came to the US all the while working thru the system to get his family here as well. He would travel back to see them a few times a year and they would visit him as well all within the legal bounds. Eventually his wife who works as a nurse was accepted as well so his family purchased a home here. They continued their travel thru the legal process of becoming citizens spending years filling out papers, being interviewed, spending money, paying their house and car payments to US companies. All the while paying taxes to the government. They all try very hard to learn the language and customs of their new community and do very well at it. At one point his wife and family had to return to Mexico for several months as her visa was about to expire. Again more time apart and more money spent but that hurdle was overcome as well. Recently they were approved to become US citizens and while he is a very rabid Mexico National Soccer team supporter (he played on the team in his youth) he is also very much a US citizen. So I'm also very familiar with the current situation of getting citizenship. Not as easy as grandpa had it for sure but still not the impossible climb it's made out to be. Care to hear about my friends from the UK or Germany? Yes they also went thru the hoops and achieved their goal also. I have a buddy from mainland China as well. The point is no matter how the rules change there is no reason ignoring them is the right thing to do. [/QUOTE]
