New York – New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg has strong feelings about immigration and the controversial Arizona law. He says that the United States is actually losing the best and the brightest people to other counties. He is calling for immigration reform and enforcement, but says that the United States needs more immigrants, not fewer. He says that magically deporting all undocumented immigrants would devastate the national economy

“The Arizona immigration law is as much evidence as you ever would need to show that the federal government is walking away from their responsibilities to decide who can come to this country, who can stay in this country, who will help this country grow,” Bloomberg said.

By whom will they be employed?
Liberal nut. Who is doing my construction? Who are the people working in all take outs? Who are the people working in all schools, etc. a bunch of e legals that take away american jobs!
Immigrants yes, illegal Immigrants not
We need to discern the skills that are under represented in our population and bring in like skilled immigrants. We don’t need 15 million illiterate lettuce pickers.
if these illigal immigrants would pitch in to society and pay taxes in appose to shipping off their income to their family in mexico and then rushing to the hospital because he has a cold and can’t be denied attention in a public hospital I would consider agreeing with bloomberg. till then I can’t see how they help build our country or our economy as he claims. if the money is sent overseas they are destroying our economy and building mexicos economy where the money is being spent.
