Mexican Welfare

When you apply for Welfare in Mexico what do they give you?

A map of the United States.

That one was from Catfish. This next one is from CharlieB.


Jose and Carlos who are illegally here, are panhandling at the freeway offramp each holding a sign.

Jose drives a Mercedes, lives in a mortgage free house and has a lot of money to spend.

Carlos only brings in 2 to 3 dollars a day.

Carlos asks Jose how he can bring home a suitcase full of $10 bills every day.

Jose says, "Look at your sign." It reads: "I have no work, a wife & 6 kids to support"

Carlos looks at Jose's sign.
It reads: "I only need another $10.00 to move back to Mexico"

They used to pay a $2 bounty on foxes. Maybe they could pay a bounty for making a citizens arrest on the illegals and their bosses[CEO,CFO and not just some HR hourly worker].

It will never happen, but when the bosses start going to jail, then the jobs will dry up and the Mexican invasion force will go home.

I liked the second joke, but I don't think I have ever seen Mexican panhandlers standing on a corner with a sign - ever. And trust me, there's somebody at every major intersection. Maybe the hippies have the franchise here.

Best sign: Feel better, yell at the Homeless: $1

A Mexican panhandler in Houston? Hah! Don't you know that they are too busy doing the "jobs that Americans don't want to do". I wonder how many illegals are working for Senor Bushito at his Crawford ranch...
Best sign locally: Not for beer!

I SWEAR I saw a street-corner beggar-sign with the following in downtown SF back in '01:

"Will DeskTop publish for Food -My Cell# is XXX-XXX-XXXX".

First time I've ever posted a comment. Had to. You are a frickin' genius. Love you. (Don't worry. I won't stalk you, I am too old and tired.)

Back in 1995, after Mexico's last devaluation I attended a business conference in Mexico City. One of the speakers was the then-head of Mexico's central bank. A question from the audience was why Mexico does not have unemployment insurance or a "social safety net". His response "We don't need them,we have the US border".

The wealthy people who control Mexico are laughing at the US every day. The US takes the garbage from Mexico which then returns the money to family who spend it at stores controlled by those wealthy people.

The US is really stupid.

Where are the sanctions against Mexico for not enforcing its side of the border? Seems to me pressure could be applied in other places, rather than simply concentrating on the illegals themselves.

I agree lets get the people who hire them and they might go home. I disagree about them doing work we won't, they took my job that I did for 15 years because they were allowed work for 5 dollars an hour, do crappy work, and get away working unsafe which we weren't. They take lazy people's jobs but they don't work anyway, just live off of people who do.

Why is the Mexican Fire Dept. so ineffective?

They have a hard time telling the difference between Jose' and Hose B.

Some commenters have wondered why we in the US aren't doing something about this enormous problem. The reason is simple: the POTUS does not want to fix it. He simply does not want enforcement. In fact, Jorge W Busheron seems to have greater regard for Mexicans and their needs than for ours. Doubt it? Read his words, uttered in Mexico this March:

My pledge to you and your government, but more important to the people of Mexico, is I'll work as hard as I possibly can to pass comprehensive immigration reform.

SInce when does the President of the United States of America owe anything to foreigners? Since when is it OK for him to put the wants of foreigners above those of Americans?

Let's face it: W is an open-borders true believer. He doesn't care if he destroys grassroots support for the Republican Party. He doesn't care if his actions (or inactions, as the case may be) damage or even destroy America. As long as it's good for Mexico and Mexicans, Jorge is for it!

You're now just figuring out that W has only corporate interests in mind. You guys are pretty late on this.

I see where TIME magazine is in favor of amnesty for illegals but this is the same leftists rag that once featured ADOLPH HITLER as its MAN OF THE YEAR is spreading this GLOBAL WARMING poppycock and is run by the sinster CFR

On a more positive note:

Another Mexican gang-banger just got shot and killed right outside of my work. I guess the first day back isn't so bad afterall, huh? heh heh.

Well oobydooby ...I dunno but I'd guess not as many as Nancy Pelosi has picking grapes, washing dishes and making beds at her family vineyards, exclusive Spa Hotel and trendy restaurant in Napa Valley.

A better question is why the Democrat Speaker of the House doesn't employ union labor and the MSM have given her a total pass.

Posted by: BJ on June 21, 2007 05:23 PM

BJ - Because she is a Dimocrat and the LSM gives Dims a great big pass.
