Hell, the Mexicans would take advantage of the natural resources available and turn a profit.

That is actually less likely than them turning Los Angeles into a drug cartel warzone like Nuevo Laredo.

On second thought, would that really be much of a change from what they are today?

b!tch b!tch b!itch, moan moan moan, no one is as Tru Con as me!

Okay, Einstein, what’s your alternative solution? Deport them all?

Ahh yes, the clarion call of the amnesty shill. Can’t deport them all, therefore we should deport none of them, and reward them for being here as well, lol.

How are you going to find them if they’re not on the grid?

I recommend starting at Home Depot and Lowes.

How are you going to find them if they don’t comply with the new rules?

Although at this point, I wouldn’t oppose GIVING California, Nevada and New Mexico BACK to Mexico so it’s not part of the United States any more.

I’d really love to have my aunt inlaw come over to America to help my wife care for our daughter. I cannot do it legally, or at least not legally and financially viably. What the government is telling me is that I should just buy her a ticket to Canada or Mexico where she then just crosses the border and stays in our home with us. If I do that, then she will shortly be granted citizenship for which she would never be eligible for otherwise. I really love how our government works…

And I guarantee our country would be better off if your Aunt could immigrate legally and we focused on things that make sense rather than letting criminals mass migrate.

And, yes, anyone who sneaks across our border illegally IS A CRIMINAL.

How come that’s racist when we say it, but news analysis when Frum does?

Enforce workplaces and put people who hire illegals in jail.
Extend that to include people who hire day laborers without verifying legal status.
Stop allowing illegal children to go to schools.
Stop allowing born in America to automatically grant citizenship, they also need to be born to a citizen to get that.
Stop paying medical providers to provide healthcare to illegals free of charge.
When the vast majority self deport, spend the resources to round up the vast majority of the rest and take their biometric information, put them on a never allowed back list, if they come back, they go to a desert heavy labor camp where they either earn their meals or get executed.
Arm the southern border. Require tracking devices for visa holders. Anyone who comes on a visa and removes or hampers their tracking shall be deported and as others, not allowed to return to the USA.

Simple, fair, and doable.

If you make them ineligible for ANY kind of government benefit and add MANDATORY minimum sentences for CEO’s and officers of companies that employ illegals and run their company in such a way that it’s OBVIOUS they are willfully doing so (ie: not paying wages that they’d have to pay if employing legal labor) the honey pot would dry up so fast they’d be climbing over each other to go back to Mexico.

Of course, the Republican establishment won’t go for that (CEO perp walks) any more than Democrats will go for denying welfare slavery to anyone they can trap into voting for them.

The magnet needs to be shut off so they stop coming for any reason other than to do it legally and become a citizen.

The solution is to enforce existing law mainly against all employers. This would open up about 10 – 15 million jobs. Many are good jobs, construction, cement, plumbing, carpentry etc. This is the maintenance work of a nation. Bring in legal immigrants to work ag. Think you couldn’t find them?

We are already getting the bottom of the educational barrel to do the servicing of the nation now. They are having kids. We already have plenty of those kids – they are called unemployed citizens.

Lock up employers who hire illegals. Think they wont start hiring citizens? Illegals are not manufacturing for export. That work is mainly overseas. Blacks have been pushed out of the labor market by illegals. They will not get hired until employers are forced tonot hire anyone but blacks

This is the dirty secret of our system

Will the GOP accept this, or the DEMs? Neither but it is the truth

Who wins from the immigration deal? Not Republicans AMERICANS

How are you going to find them if they’re not on the grid?
