I don't believe the implications in the article for a minute. For every 1 of people like the man the article was written about, there are many more that are just "takers". I was a nurse in a hospital no where near any border, but we were over run by people from the south who would flat out tell you-even brag if you will about plans of many to come to this country, and give birth, so that they and their families could come to this country to live. Apparently there were organizations who "schooled" people where to go and what to do when they got there. The people told them exactly where and how to apply for every public service/ social program they could, promising them a wonderful new life. I can't totally blame them for wanting a better life, but this is not the way to do it. I didn't ask about any of this, could have cost me my job, but they would freely talk--like I said they were very excited about all the things they were going to get. But their advisors (no idea who they were) were very well informed and had step by step instructions for them. Any of course there are planned "birth vacations" (very common) that are actually arranged so that the women either were pregnant, or delibertly became pregnant and would make sure to deliver in the US. And this is just an example of many, many, many people. I could go on and on. You can believe this or not, but it is the truth. So, many of the immigrants no matter where they come from , are not here to be a hard worker, but rather to live off the American public.
