Illegal Immigrants

"They do the jobs we don't want to do."
According to the Websters Pocket Dictionary of the English Language 2000 Edition the definition for illegal is
illegal adj. - Contrary to the law, not legal.
In an article written by Jennifer Nelson she had quoted Albert Najera, a Sacramento police chief saying "To simply say these people are 'illegal' and wait for the Feds to do something is hurtful, wasteful and divisive."
Wanna know what else is hurtful? Try the tax payers wallets. This country literally pays for people to be illegal whether we like it or not. However, I must give credit to the some illegals that put their illegal children through a public school. We all know every public school is funded by a tax payment complements of the state. If there are(this is just an example) 1,000 kids enlisted in the school 500 of which are legal, and 500 that are not. Only 500 kids are being payed for. Of course we can jack taxes up for the illegals yet we have a difficult time funding our own legal citizen kids.
You know.. all these expenses remind me of babies.
- Both are expensive as all hell.
- Both of them constantly whine, cry, and moan over everything.
- They don't speak English. (But our kids will learn it eventually!)
- They both need people to take care of their crap. ( Diapers need to be changed, and big business heads need to keep them off the radar.)
- They both like to crawl over and under things.
- They always get past the fences.
- They both have got to have it their way.
- Neither of them can be held responsible for any illegal actions they may take. God forbid if your 3 year old kid gets behind the wheel and crashes the car..neither of them can be arrested for not having a license!
and that is all i have to say.

First Solo Driving Trip
JOL (Junior Operators License) rules that I am to abide
1.no passengers besides immediate family members or someone 21 years or older who has had their license for one year, for the first 6 months of driving. I don't argue on this one, I agree. Whether my fellow teens agree or not, most of us need this.
2. No driving between 12am-5pm without guardian(21 years or older with license for one year or more)
3. You speed, kiss your license goodbye for 90 days and enjoy that $500 reinstatement fee. That's just the first offense.
I question this one.
Before I get some parental speech about how I don't know it all, shut up. I am fully aware that I am inexperienced and that having my license is a privilege, not a right.
This rule applies up until the age of 18. When you speed at that age you get three times to try at getting a speeding ticket. Point of the 6 month rule? To get used to driving by our self, maybe get more skills as a driver, and not be distracted by our friends. That's a legit reason. How are we suppose to achieve experience when we get our licenses taken away for 90 days? I don't see the 18 year old getting theirs suspended for the first time. It makes me a bit mad to know that someone going 30mph over the speed limit will have a better chance at being a survivor after one ticket, than me who is just going 10mph over. I feel a bold moment coming on.
Just thinking about that led me to this, maybe I'm completely wrong, but it sounds like a pretty nifty idea to me.
We are kids. We don't listen, we know it all, with an end result of us being more rebellious. From my own knowledge I know for a fact there are kids who drive 45+ over the speed limit, just because they know they shouldn't(not like this doesn't apply to everyone else). Notice how our(teenagers) fines are $500 on the first offense? 9 times out of 10 a kids parent is going to pay for it, not us. That makes the cash flow much more heavy for the state, just what they want. Lets say out of 100 people, 50 of them under JOL, 50 of them 18+. 40 of the JOL receive their first offense for speeding, and 40 receive their fee for 3 speeding tickets.
Lets do the math.
JOL - 40 x 500 = $2o,000
Non JOL- 40 x 100 = $4,000
In conclusion, the supposed experienced drivers only have to pay a fine of $4000(this is just the state fee, not insurance) after three tries and the inexperienced get $20,000 for first offense. They say the system is screwed, but kudos to the system for coming up with a clever way of getting the most..and by most i mean $$$.. out of our youth<3 No wonder parents say they cant wait till we hit 18, they dont have to pay for jack shit!
