So let me see if I have this right, if you have food stamps and don't speak English, you are an illegal immigrant, is that correct? What kind of idiotic, lame and very judgmental assumption is that?! Not to mention, ignorant! Get over yourselves! I'm so tired of people berating others because of where they come from. So what if they have food stamps? Do you know the circumstances that brought them to that grocery store where you work? Automatically that makes them "illegal"?? Just like that? I know that there are people who do take advantage of the "system" and they do it without remorse, but guess what? They are citizens of the United States! What? Not just illegal immigrants??? I work for the government, give me a break! I see ALL kinds of people who "milk" the system. Sure, some happen to be here illegally, but some happen to be here very legally and they are the ones who take, and take and take and don't work even though they are very capable of doing so! So don't just lump them all as being "illegals" that's crap! What if I were to judge some of you soley on the basis of your spelling?!! There are some horrendous grammar and spelling errors that were posted on this topic, would you like it if I judged you for that?

Amen to that!laugh :wink:

worker programs employ them, they then get credit from employment, charge everything, dont claim it, which then puts them below the requirements for assistance for their household size. below as you need like less then 200 dollars a month to get food stamps :angry: which is almost impossible to live on unless you cheat the system. explode

I kind of like it. my family doesnt do **** for me. Least they can actually count on theirs... even if the women do all the work grumble

I talk with a few at my job, they use certificates from south america which allows them to use chemicals that would require americans to go to college, so the companies can pay them less like 8.00 for a job that Americans would charge at least 15.00 for... I was talking to my boss about reporting it because it sounds illegal, yet my company can somehow pass it as legal... which is why almost all janitors and maintenance are mexican or of latino heritage.
