Completely concur, have been interacting with many illegals for years now in the construction industry, in law enforcement, and in my military duties....(I had troops married to illegals.....you really can't make this stuff up
,) and I completely concur with what you read.
And really who can blame them, I mean why become a citizen if you can work without taxes for many times what you could earn in your home country. By not being a citizen you don't have to worry about all those hassles of citizenship like drivers licenses or insurance, or paying for medical bills, you can go to the ER and get seen, and then if you need to go back later you just give another name or go to a different ER, after all many of them only have the ID from their home country, (many of which don't even have a picture on them, and which are very easy to make.) Your kids get a better education, and are citizens if you drop them on US soil. If you happen to get scooped up by LE you can just bond out and change your name (yes fingerprints don't change but if it's a minor crime in my AO it doesn't go into NCIC so it's a local record and really doesn't mean much) if it's a serious beef, then you might be deported, many months/years later and/or after serving your time. It's a joke really, these politicians who think the illegals will just line up for a green card/citizenship are legislating from their heart without any idea of the facts of the matter or with giving the issue any real critical thought.
I know I know that's a shock 
I shudder to think what nonsense our
"representatives" in DC will pass when they address this issue, I'm guessing an amnesty program at least, probably water points in the desert and making it illegal to ask a person’s citizenship status including during elections voting.
I’m sure that hasn’t…..er……I mean won’t have a negative effect on our country..
