July 30, 2012, 1:34pm (report abuse)Obama has had from day 1 of taking office, the ability to open 7+ million jobs to 14-22 million unemployed legal immigrants and citizens, instead he is still protecting the 7+ million illegal workers doing them instead of our unemployed! And yes, most would do them if they were opened for them to apply! It don't matter how many he has deported because he has stopped deporting most illegals and those jobs are needed by our unemployed!
If illegals "knew" they had to leave or be charged and deported anyway, most would leave on their own to avoid the 3-10 year ban for illegal re-entry or overstaying their visa! They can take their family with them and apply like everybody else. It's wrong to take much-needed jobs and resources from those here legally!
And Obama admitted that "illegals go to the ER and we pay for it", that forced cost is wrong, we are struggling to survive and he is still making us pay for them and lets them work our jobs. Continued betrayal to say the least!
