Newspeak
| HOUSTON (Reuters): La Raza, a Washington-based advocacy group for Latinos, plans to release a report next month that examines what it sees as unfair treatment of undocumented workers after U.S. disasters, and recommends changes in U.S. policy that specifically would alter disaster assistance programs to benefit Latinos. |
The problem with this statement is the euphemism undocumented. They are illegal workers. They snuck into the country against the law. Why do they think they deserve government assistance after ignoring the government's laws when they illegally crossed the border. I've been personally involved in the immigration process. It isn't easy, and it isn't all that cheap, but it is doable. One of the reasons doing it legally is such a pain in the ass is because of all those undocumented workers who break the law. That means that those of us doing it legally have to work that much harder because the government has to spend so much time and money making sure the illegals don't pass through.
I'm sorry, but you'll get absolutely no sympathy from me on the subject of illegal immigrant workers.
