We already allow over 1 million people here with work visas student visas etc. I also have stated numerous times before that I would accept having a guest worker program, and at the end of the season they must return to ther countries and apply again.
I've proposed the same thing too based on what I see in the Middle East guest worker system. Let's be honest though: that's glorified slavery. But, if we can use the documentation/regulation practices of that system and apply our own system of protections and rights to it, it could work.

Gee you really don't get it. Illegals might pay sales tax and some might file a return, However when they get a refund in the amount larger than their tax bill they might pay taxes, but they are not taxpayers. When they consume more in sociual services than they contribute they are a drain on our economy...Simple math you clod.
Simple math you've yet to back up! Go ahead, post another link that shows the drain...without comparing it to the projections as to what we "make" off of them!

Amazing how you forget the numerous times I said to crackdown on the employers, landlords etc. They are part of thr problem. Its a supply and demand issue. The illegals are the supply and there is a demand for cheap labor. Should I explain it to you en espanol? If there are no incentives for them to come here ie. Welfare, foodstamps automatic citizenship etc. They will not come and for the ones who are already here if all forms of assistance are cut off, they will leave. Thus inhibiting people from coming here illegally.

Your juvenile approach is that I hate Brown people when its not the case. Come here the right way like millions of other people have. We can not afford to be a soup kitchen.
No, your approach is ass-backwards!!! If your focus was where it should be you'd be constantly bombarding us with stories of people who are exploiting illegals instead of going out of your way to paint illegals themselves as the main problem so that you can justify wanting mass deportations and "starving them out" and shit like that!!! They're coming here because there's the demand for them!!! Cut off the source of that demand and you see results!!!
And you're completely missing the fucking point with work visas!!! Why do you feel that people who want to move here permanently should only be given work visas?!?! Our immigration process is a tedious, convoluted, time-wasting mess and is the main reason illegals come here illegally!!! Streamline the process for immigration while cracking down on exploiters of illegals and you'd see the most significant drop in illegal immigration (especially since it would make it so much more difficult for people to exploit them), especially when compared to your "starve them out" nonsense!!!

And you didnt see where I stated that the problem lies also with the employers??? Ypu know where the demand is also? The fucking politicians who want more potential voters. They promise Amnesty and a result loyal voters for them.
We as a nation should set a limit on how many people are allowed in. Its not someones right to come here. As far as the poor downtrodden illegals you cry for, they came here VOLUNTARILY!!!! So they are not slaves, they are not property so the comparsion of an illegal to African slaves chained and shackled on cramped ships across the Atlantic is pathetic. They know that at anytime they can be deported so they have to live in fear and thats how it should be. I am not calling for all brown people to be stopped Thats a waste of resources, however if someone driving with no license insurance, doesnt speak English gets a DWI, and its deemed that he is here illegally Toss his ass out. Who cares if he has children here. He can take them with him.
Again, punish the employers and landlords, multiple offenses and they risk having the business/property seized.
If you cut off all entitlements and benefits they will leave. Starve the beast and its adios

So cut the shit!!! You clearly don't want to focus on what the real draw for illegals are since you only want to paint them as scary Mexican monsters!!! Clamp down on the business and property owners who exploit illegals and you snuff out the main reasons illegals are risking coming here illegally!!! That's much more effective than doing with your stupid "punish the illegal as much as possible" approach!!! It's like you actually know what you keep suggesting won't solve anything wanthese people to suffer as much as possible!!!
Again, your focus is on the illegals: that is dumb. The main cause of illegals being here are the people who can exploit them!!! Focus on the cause and not the result or you'll always just end up being reactive!!!

With that Dream bill I can see maybe loosening the rules for people serving in the military but the college students one is baffling.
So for those that are getting an education that neither they not their parents have paid for they should be rewarded ?
It's essentially saying " Ok well you stole something but since you have it we might as well make you a citizen. "
Isn't it rewarding somebody for doing something they shouldn't be doing anyway ?
Now I haven't read the whole bill or even most of the stories but that's what I got out of it.

I think the point is that having a college educated person in our country will more than likely be a benefit than a negative in almost all categories anti-illegal immigrant advocates complain about. In the end, the question for sane people who don't have a mind-boggling hatred for illegal immigrants is: what benefits this country most? Are we cutting off our noses to spite our face by enforcing existing immigration laws? It seemed to me that the purpose of the DREAM Act was to draw a line between illegals that (debatably) take from the system, and illegals that (debatably) benefit the system.

But to Wrestlingfan's point we're talking about giving people a free eduction that legal citizens sometimes go into life long debt to repay.
There's something inherently wrong with that. Especially in a state like CA that's bankrupt and probably cheating it's own citizens out of a proper education.

I'm missing something. Where is it stated they'd get a free college education?
From Section 11 of the DREAM Act:
http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/F?c111:1:./temp/~c1114GOCdu:e20533:
SEC. 11. HIGHER EDUCATION ASSISTANCE.
Notwithstanding any provision of the Higher Education Act of 1965 (20 U.S.C. 1001 et seq.), with respect to assistance provided under title IV of the Higher Education Act of 1965 (20 U.S.C. 1070 et seq.), an alien who adjusts status to that of a lawful permanent resident under this Act shall be eligible only for the following assistance under such title:
(1) Student loans under parts B, D, and E of such title IV (20 U.S.C. 1071 et seq., 1087a et seq., 1087aa et seq.), subject to the requirements of such parts.

so someone who came here illegally and isnt an American citizen deserves a free education but others who are Americans get nothing, no help and if they do get help they must pay it back? I remember when I wanted to go to college we couldnt even get financial aid because they said my mother made too much money. Sorry but I dont feel sorry for people who broke our immigrations and have done nothing right when I wasnt even allowed to borrow money for college! So all the tax dollars citizens pay goes to give free education to people who dont deserve it?
JimBeam
12-18-2010, 12:30 PM
I guess I miswrote. I meant a discounted education.
So if it's safe to presume that an illegal alien isn't paying out of state tuition they must be paying in state.
A person that's not even from a country is much more of an out of state student than somebody from the US.
And how are the illegals getting into college to begin with ?

What does that mean? "People who don't deserve it"? Who decides that?
Also, there is no "free education", that is something made up by the people who are against this bill.
And I just don't see how increasing the number of college educated americans is a bad thing. Obama nailed it with his comments today, this act was common sense. Giving people who CLEARLY want to be productive citizens and have PROVEN it an easier path to citizenship benefits this country. There is no debate.

You are making a lot of assumptions and creating scenario that may or may not exist. My only point is that the DREAM Act is more beneficial to this country than it is not. It ONLY increases the number of productive members of our society.

Who deserves it? AMERICAN FUCKING CITIZENS and those who are here legally! We already cant afford the people who are here now we are expected to pay for those who came here illegally and continue to break the law every day they stay? They are basically stealing from every American and taking away for deserving Americans!

You dont think illegals hurt America and students? It cost more money because we are educating students that shouldnt be here. American students are losing out because there are more students in a classroom. Teachers needing to focus and help illegals more because of the language problem. Free food in the classrooms, over crowding etc.
No its not cutting my nose to spite my face. Allowing illegals to take away from those who are here legally or American citizens is cutting our noses to spite our face. We are helping people that dont deserve it. As populations grow we need to limit immigration. The more people that come here illegally the more it takes away from all resources! If we secured our borders, and focused on educating our citizens we would be better off. I dont feel its right that a child is losing out because an illegal is taking their spot or because money is being wasted on them when they shouldnt even be here.
The argument cant exist because there would be nothing to argue about if they didnt come here illegally. They are here illegally so they deserve nothing that other citizens are entitled to! I use this argument again. Go anywhere in the world and see what you get if you are there illegally! Nothing but arrested, deported no questions asked!

That is an ENORMOUS "if". One that is nowhere near clear-cut. So many unintended consequences are lurking out there for such a shake up to so many different markets.
But the financial bottom line is only one concern. Such a massive subversion of the rule of law is not something we should take lightly. You really want to make the case that any scheme is fair game as long as it adds to the coffers?

Open borders and supporters of illegal immigration stil dont fucking get it. Passage of the DREAM act would result in more people flooding the country. I know facts get in the way but the Simpson Mazzoli bill of 1986 backs everything up. There is no argueing with this you can not spin this in any way. Legalizing 3 million people led to a human tsunami and as a result 25 years later there are 20 million illegals in this country.
Once someone is legalized at age 21 this will allow them to bring in their extended families thus exploding our bloated entitlement system and creating millions more zero liability voters.
Adding to Snacks points, Felipe Calderon cries that we should babysit his unwanted but try being an illegal alien in his country. CASE FUCKING CLOSED!!!!!!

SEC. 6. RETROACTIVE BENEFITS UNDER THIS ACT.
If, on the date of enactment of this Act, an alien has satisfied all the requirements of subparagraphs (A) through (E) of section 4(a)(1) and section 5(d)(1)(D), the Secretary of Homeland Security may adjust the status of the alien to that of a conditional resident in accordance with section 4. The alien may petition for removal of such condition at the end of the conditional residence period in accordance with section 5(c) if the alien has met the requirements of subparagraphs (A), (B), and (C) of section 5(d)(1) during the entire period of conditional residence.

This thread has grown into a circular argument that is getting old. Here are my parting notes:
1. History. Nothing is funnier than listening to/reading American citizens who don't have a context of this nation's immigrant history or even their own family's history. In the note of each era, each of us may be surprised to learn the "legal status" of our forefathers.
2. "Lazy". Nothing is more demeaning to first-generation immigrants in this country to claim that they are here for the benefits. They are always the most screwed-over generations of any family. The saying amongst many immigrant families I know is "The first generation earns it, the second generation gets it and the third generation fucks it up." So while that first generation is doing the work that you think you are too good for, don't you dare call them fucking lazy.
3. Dream Act. The irony of the DREAM Act is that is makes the second generation immigrant earn it more than ever. It raises their level of human capital, either via military service or education, which makes us stronger in the global economy. But logic and reason don't matter in the face of fear-mongering.
4. Political Reality. There is a political reality to this issue that Republican lawmakers know and fear: This is a very bad long-term vote on their part, but necessary to keep their tea party voters happy. By the GOP stopping the DREAM Act, they have just given the Democratic Party a free wedge issue with the hispanic community. President Bush 2 knew this reality and consistently courted this group. Now a generation of hispanic voters are unreachable for the GOP. This will be a gigantic problem especially as populations shift and the US becomes a "minority majority" nation.
5. The End Game. In the end, this bill may not pass, but a bill like it will.

1) I know my families history and how they got here. It was documented on Ellis Island when they arrived the right way in the 1930s and 40s. As for your other part, yes many of our for fathers came here in what now would be called illegal immigration. The difference is there were no rules or laws, now there are! There also wasnt the population that there is now so land, property and resources were available. Now everything is limited and we are getting over crowded. We need for our own legal citizens not criminals. Now that laws are established people must follow them if you dont, get the fuck out!
2) agree with you to a point. The 1st generation may be working their asses off but they are also getting lots of free entitlements that previous immigrants didnt get. Their was no help or aid from the govt back then. You came here, learned english and worked. Also no one is talking about legal immigrants. If you come here illegally you have no rights to anything you arent here legally! What part of Legal and Illegal is so hard to understand?
If I jumped over my neighbors fence and drowned in their pool should my family have any right to sue or complain? Should the home owner be arrested? Should the govt help my parents? No to all because what I did was illegal, breaking and entering.
3) Lets see what they have to do. If they arent paying for it then I dont care what they do. If I have to pay for someone to get educated with my tax dollars when I wasnt allowed that chance then I say fuck them come here the right way. If you dont like the laws or the process stay the fuck out and try it somewhere else.
4) Disagree this is actually huge for the Repubs. They are getting dems to side with them. They will also keep their base. Like I said before many people both right and left dont want to see people who illegally came here get anything especially when many Americans cant get the help they need. If anything I think this helps Repubs and hurt the Dems, look at the numbers most agree to vote against this bill.
5) I hope nothing ever passes! why reward criminal activity? Why not help the Americans that are here and need help? Kick out the illegals as they are found and fine the business that hire them. Build a stronger border, and make every person who wants to come here legally go through the proper channels.

American students are losing out because there are more students in a classroom. Teachers needing to focus and help illegals more because of the language problem. Free food in the classrooms, over crowding etc.
No its not cutting my nose to spite my face. Allowing illegals to take away from those who are here legally or American citizens is cutting our noses to spite our face. We are helping people that dont deserve it. As populations grow we need to limit immigration. The more people that come here illegally the more it takes away from all resources! If we secured our borders, and focused on educating our citizens we would be better off. I dont feel its right that a child is losing out because an illegal is taking their spot or because money is being wasted on them when they shouldnt even be here.
The argument cant exist because there would be nothing to argue about if they didnt come here illegally. They are here illegally so they deserve nothing that other citizens are entitled to! I use this argument again. Go anywhere in the world and see what you get if you are there illegally! Nothing but arrested, deported no questions asked!
You act like the negative aspects of illegal immigrants exist in a vacuum and nothing positive comes out of them being here. I am sorry, but that is simply not the case. It is not reality. Illegal immigrants give us an extremely cheap labor force, if they come here as adults, it means we just received a poor-working class that we didn't have to put through the system as children. Do you know how valuable that is to the rest of us? Do you know how much that child sitting in the over-crowded classroom benefits from that?

That is an ENORMOUS "if". One that is nowhere near clear-cut. So many unintended consequences are lurking out there for such a shake up to so many different markets.
But the financial bottom line is only one concern. Such a massive subversion of the rule of law is not something we should take lightly. You really want to make the case that any scheme is fair game as long as it adds to the coffers?
It is not an enormous "if". It is actually more likely than not that a college educated person, or someone in the military would do more good for this country than harm. If the financial bottom line was the only concern, than this bill would have passed.

Yeah because saving .10 cents makes all the other expenses and problems created by illegal immigration?! Id rather pay the .20 cents extra and give our own citizens more work and a better life then making it harder for people who are here legally.
You guys make it sound like only illegals will do those jobs. Wrong, maybe avg Americans wont but if there werent so many illegals more LEGAL immigrants would do those jobs anyway. The amount of money we lose on aid, not collecting taxes, food stamps, educating is far greater then the savings we have.
A friend of mine owns a landscaping business. Ge employs only his family. He is no more expensive then the other guy who uses day workers. Because at the end of the day there is too much competition and people will only pay what they will pay. So my friend knows legal or illegal hes getting what he gets. the difference is he pays taxes on every employee. The other guy is just making more profit. So if 1 guy can do it for the same price as the other its not that the illegals are saving us money. They are just putting a larger profit in the hands of their bosses. These guys are still charging what they would charge no matter who worked for them!
At this point most Americans are tired of the negative shit illegals bring to this country. For the few things it may benefit us the bad far out ways those. One of my best friends who came here legally is more against illegals then most. They are pissed that they had to spend the money, do the right things and these people make it worse for them.

A huge percentage of wages earned by illegals will NEVER go into our economy. It will be wired out of this country in the form of remittances. How does that help our economy?
One of Mexicos largest forms of revenue is remittances that illegals send back. This year it expects to be over 20 billion

How is having 20 million needy dependent people here a benefit to us? The very little they contribute in paying sales tax dwarfs the billions they collect on entitlements, and us having to babysit them and their extended families.
Yes they might make minumum wage but no one forced them to come here. They knew the risks and dangers of being here illegally. As wrong as it might be they know that they face exploitation. If we just took the arguement at face value that only illegals would do manual labor, which isnt't true, well do you expect them to be working on Wall st or performing heart transplants ? A huge majority of them are illiterate and have almost no education. They know that they can be deported for committing a crime. So they deserve no merit.

speeding is a crime its a violation of a law. cant go to jail for speeding unless you do it drunk or kill someone. smoking pot people do go to jail. your examples prove nothing but against what you wanted them to. coming to America illegally isnt a misdemeanor its a crime against all Americans. Smoking pot doesnt harm anyone. Coming here illegally harms every single tax payer and every American who is in need of assistants but cant get it because too much money is going to people who do not deserve it. Yes illegals do not deserve any help they are here illegally!
Are you here illegally? Did your family come here illegally or do you date someone who is here illegally? Were not talking about legal immigrants who get taken advantage of, that shouldnt happen.

no you ask about smoking pot. The war on drugs cost tax payers the individual doesnt. If we made pot legal it wouldnt get rid of the other wars on drugs. Just like if we made every illegal here legal they would still cost us tons of money because they are lower income paying less and less taxes and receiving more for less. So to allow 20-30 million people citizenship for breaking our laws is crazy and is no benefit to our nation. It will only cost us more money.

Im against anything that rewards them for breaking the law. They have already taken advantage of Americans by living here and coming here the wrong way.
The only way I would give amnesty is if everyone got a physical, if you are sick (major sickness , disease) get out, if you have been arrested for anything since being here, get out and you must pay a fine of $10,000 for cutting the line and you have 10 years of $1000 a year in payments.

Bottom line, we need some sort of amnesty as part of a comprehensive immigration reform!!! No, not just a blanket amnesty like we saw in the past; on its own that only provides very short term solutions and doesn't do anything to address immigration in the long run!!!

I agree with some of your points like cracking down on employers and landlords, However granting amnesty and dumbing down citizenship requirements will not solve the problem. The main causes is the employment also our generous welfare state. Cut off all these as well as deny birthright citizenship along with real border security. The key is to make life so unbearable for illegals and they will leave on their own. Money wouldnt be needed for blanket deportation.

Of course they are here for the employment but our gov't largesse is another reason why they come here. You think it's right that they can pump out kids every 9 months and not pay their medical bills and collect welfare, housing subsidies, foodstamps, healthcare etc. It is productive to punish them. They broke the law!!!!!!!! Why exempt them from being punished? I agree that stopping every bown 4 ft person is wasteful and counterproductive but I'll say it again if someone here illegally gets something small like a speeding ticket it's Adios!!!!

why should we streamline immigration and make it easier? This isnt the early 1900s and America needed and wanted immigration. We are overpopulated as it is. Why would we want to make it even more so? We will always allow people to come here but we need to lower the annual numbers. Then again if there werent so many illegals here maybe they would allow more legal immigrants in!?

Again, it's a combination of steps!!! Streamlining immigration alone won't do it enough!!! It has to be done with the combination of showing that people who exploit illegals are going to lose a ton of money or be tossed into jail for doing so and are likely to be caught!!! You do that and you drastically reduce both the number of illegals coming here and actually reduce the total number of immigration because their primary motivation for both coming here and coming here illegally is drastically reduced!!!

From one of WF's own links:
But even some immigration hawks are wary of such a move. Steven Camarota of the Center for Immigration Studies, a Washington-based research organization that supports immigration restrictions, said ending birthright citizenship would harm children for their parents' misdeeds, require new federal registration systems and create other problems. The solution, he said, is to continue driving down illegal immigration with tough enforcement.
Right on, hawks!!!

Rewarding people with transfer payments who are here illegally might be great in your utopian world but I want people here illegally to be punished. Call it whatever you want but 70% of people happen to agree with me. You are giving incentives to people with other peoples money. Thats in your playbook. If you happen to care about these illegals why dont you give your money to them directly. What part of illegal can't you understand. Hell if someone gets caught robbing a bank 2 weeks later let him have all the money. They managed to elude the top of the line alarm system at that time.
Legalizing illegal aliens back in 1986 caused the disaster we have today. You think if we gave 20 million people Amnesty it would end illegal immigration? Again refer to Simpson Mazzoli

Illegal immigration and bird feeder analogy.
This is so true
[B]"The Bird Feeder Analogy
I bought a bird feeder. I hung it on my back porch and filled it with birdseed. What a beauty of a bird feeder it was, as I filled it lovingly with seed. Within a week we had hundreds of birds taking advantage of the continuous flow of free and easily accessible food.
But then the birds started building nests in the boards of the patio, above the table, and next to the barbecue. Then came the poop! It was everywhere, on the patio tile, the chairs, the table…everywhere!
Then some of the birds turned mean. They would dive bomb me and try to peck me even though I had fed them out of my own pocket. The other birds were boisterous and loud. They sat on the feeder and squawked and screamed at all hours of the day and night and demanded that I fill it when it got low on food.
After a while, I couldn’t even sit on my own back porch anymore. So I took down the bird feeder and in three days the birds were gone. I cleaned up their mess and took down the many nests they had built all over the patio.
Soon, the back yard was like it used to be…quiet, serene and no one demanding their rights to a free meal.
Now let’s see…..
Our government gives out free food, subsidized housing, free medical care, and free education and allows anyone born here to be an automatic citizen.
Then the illegals came by the tens and hundreds of thousands, millions. Suddenly our taxes went up to pay for free services; apartments are housing 5 families; you have to wait 6 hours to be seen by an emergency room doctor; your child’s 2nd grade class is behind other schools because half the class doesn’t speak English. Corn Flakes now come in a bilingual box;

I agree that a blanket deportation of 20 million people will not be cost effective. However if incentives are eliminated and opportunities are cut off, many of them will leave. SB 1070 proves it.
We are well on our way to becoming like Western Europe. Look whats going on there, its collapsing due to its uncontrolled immigration and massive welfare state. That could be us if we dont do anything about it.
We can not simply afford to care for the poor and uneducated to come here we have the equivilancy of 20 million high school dropouts. Many with no education at all.
Since simpson mazzoli there have been 6 more Amnesty laws passed.
The Immigration and Reform Control Act (IRCA) Amnesty of 1986 - the "one-time only" blanket amnesty for some 2.8 million illegal aliens.
Section 245(i) The Amnesty of 1994 - a temporary rolling amnesty for 578,000 illegal aliens.
Section 245(i) The Extension Amnesty of 1997 - an extension of the rolling amnesty created in 1994.
The Nicaraguan Adjustment and Central American Relief Act (NACARA) Amnesty of 1997 - an amnesty for nearly one million illegal aliens from Central America.
The Haitian Refugee Immigration Fairness Act Amnesty (HRIFA) of 1998 - an amnesty for 125,000 illegal aliens from Haiti.
The Late Amnesty of 2000 - an amnesty for approximately 400,000 illegal aliens who claimed they should have been amnestied under the 1986 IRCA amnesty.
The LIFE Act Amnesty of 2000 - a reinstatement of the rolling Section 245(i) amnesty to an estimated 900,000 illegal aliens

I agree you will not get a mass deportation but I wouldnt create a law that would do the same thing that was done in 1986. I would give in to what they did. I would secure the borders and over time as we find someone who is illegal we deport them on the spot. I would also do raids on places that hire illegals and deport them. I would then fine the fuck out of those companys. Make the fines so out of control that a business wont take that chance. Thats the problem sometimes businesses do things that they know are wrong or illegal because they know the fine is a cost of doing business and is less then what they profit off that illegal activity. If you make the fines $1 million then you will see the illegals cant get work so they will have to go home!

I always read these stories of some illegal alien sending money home to feed his multiple children. How about they stop breeding and practice some personal responsibility.

Illegal aliens are not victims. They know that they took a risk and can be deported at anytime. I dont give a fuck If it sounds harsh. We can not keep importing the worlds poor and become a giant soup kitchen. It makes things worse. Look at Western Europe as an example They know that our entitlement system awaits them so that they can suck the life out of the taxpayers.

Then they should work to improve their country, quit ruining ours. and stop having kids If they cant support 1 why are they having 4 or 5?. I always read these stories of some illegal alien sending money home to feed his multiple children. How about they stop breeding and practice some personal responsibility. Mexico is reaping the rewards while this country bleeds billions. They are like parasites and eventually both the host and parasite ends up dying
Also the guy standing on the corner is driving down wages of legitimate American workers. The construction industry for example has been devastated by the amount of cheap labor. Tons of businesses have been put out due to the amount of cheap foreign labor
Illegal aliens are not victims. They know that they took a risk and can be deported at anytime. I dont give a fuck If it sounds harsh. We can not keep importing the worlds poor and become a giant soup kitchen. It makes things worse. Look at Western Europe as an example They know that our entitlement system awaits them so that they can suck the life out of the taxpayers.
We live in a country where 7 out of 10 people have said enough. This is why the DREAM act was killed. This is why when Dubya wanted Amnesty in 2007 we said no!!!!
I dont give a fuck what Mexicans think. They are the biggest hypocrites around. There are no welfare payments or entitlements to an illegal there. Mexico is not poor. It is corrupt and its up to the people of Mexico to rise up and quit electing corrupt politicians into office. We can not continue to be their dumping ground.
Again I use Mexico as an example because the majority of illegals are there. I someone is going to have a shit fit that I used Mexico as an example
Stop pretending your concern is "the taxpayer". Your plans for fixing our problems with illegal immigration are infinitely more expensive than the problem that we're currently facing. Zorro is trying to explain to you that the problem exists, and will continue to exist. There will not be a magic pill that fixes it. Knowing this, we should approach it with reason, instead of having two sides that scream bumper sticker slogans at each other, while never solving anything. The DREAM Act took the approach of giving a path to citizenship to illegals that proved (yes, proved) they would be productive citizens. While you and Snacks may disagree with it, at least it's SOMETHING. It's not a blanket path to amnesty as you are trying to mislead everyone to believe.

Enforcing immigration policies on a "as we catch them" basis will not significantly reduce the number of illegal immigrants in this country and pro-actively seeking out all illegal immigrants and enacting mass deportations would far out-cost the price of allowing them to live here.

Always with the simple solutions. Do you realize just how many different forms of ID there are in this country? The government should not be ceding its responsibility. Requiring employers to verify citizenship or work authorization opens them to discrimination lawsuits. So, unless you plan to immunize employers you can forget that idea.

Employers discriminate all the time. If someone is not qualified they dont get the job. No one is guaranteed employment
If an employer doesnt know he's willfully hiring an illegal he deserves to lose his business.

Bank robbers are human beings but do we let them keep the money? This is a sovereign nation, just like for example if someone comes onto your private property without your permission you have every right to remove him, and sometimes by deadly force. They knowlingly broke the law. It doesnt matter if they are poor. I do care about solving the problem. They snuck in they are illegal so they do not deserve any entitlements. Does someone who broke into your house deserve free meals and permanent shelter? Of course not you will do everything to make sure he is removed You need to choke them off and cut off all forms of assistance. That solves the problem. Again they are here to freeload and that fact can not be argued. It does not matter if they work. They are taking advantage and are parasites to the taxpayer. I will say it again, we can not be a dumping ground
You want to keep making the same mistakes over and over again by rewarding them with citizenship. It has never worked and will never work in the future. Enforce the laws, crack down on the employers and have real border security.

You use all those procedures. Punish the employers and starve them out. Its a multi tiered solution

Who said they dont work? They are stealing jobs from Americans and legal immigrants. Employers do not want to pay a fair market wage so they can undercut and pay some illegal.
Yes illegals are lottery winners. I'd love to get a 900% pay raise
Yes they work but they also mooch off the taxpayer . They contribute very little. Again will you see an illegal working for an investment bank? Are they in labs splitting Atoms?
They contribute relatively little individually because they make so little! That just brings us back to how those exploiting the illegals are the main problem here since they're both the main draw for people to come here illegally and they're taking advantage of these people!
And you're basically saying they don't work! You can't sit here and pretend like you consider their work ethic at all when you take every possible opportunity to call them lazy or freeloaders and lottery winners. You do everything possible to paint the image of illegals as people who do nothing and only expect to be taken care of! Don't pretend otherwise; we're not blind and you post this shit almost every single day, so which is it? Do you think most illegals actually work and work hard or do you think most of them do nothing except hang around and just expect handouts?
Your recent arguments keep hanging on this ridiculous idea of "starving them out," and that just betrays how you do think they do almost nothing but survive off of handouts and expect to be taken care of! You'll mention how you want to crack down on people who exploit illegals when pushed, but then you just come back to your usual boogeyman of how "lazy illegals expecting entitlements" are the real problem when they're actually coming here because we have what's basically a gigantic off the grid employment market willing to hire these people and pay them shit! It fucks us over on multiple levels because that's the main draw for illegals AND the exploitation keeps too many of them stuck at levels where they need government assistance to survive! Cut off the main draw in the people who do the hiring and the renting and you've majorly impacted both in the long run! Couple it with significant immigration reform and something like DREAM that makes the people willing to stay earn their citizenship and you'll see true lasting change to the immigration situation!!!

They should not receive one dime of government assistance. There are churches who can provide them food and shelter and assistance. Thats one of their main duties. Why should someone who is not allowed to be here be entitled to my money? If you want to open your wallet and help them then its your choice. I'm not going to tell you how to spend your money. If you want to take in an illegal family go ahead but taking money from taxpayers and giving it to a bunch of people looking to milk the system is reprehensible.
I NEVER SAID THEY DON'T WORK. Im saying the amount of government assistance they consume far outweighs the cheap labor. Illegals have driven other minorities who are either citizens or here legally who are low skilled workers out of the market.

Whats wrong with calling them stupid? They taunted the cops and were caught.
There are tons of Russians Chinese, Albanian and Irish illegals here. Especially in NY. Boot them out as well. I don't discriminate
Illegals from Latin America happen to be the ones committing most of the crimes , on public assistance and the overwhelming majority of illegals. Thats not racism, thats just a fact.
My problem is aimed at the illegals. I admit that but the resentment also goes to their enablers, their employers and the politicians.
My Girlfriend is from Peru. She came here legally is self sufficient, has an MBA and is going for her citizenship in March and she takes offense to people cutting the line.
If you think Im someone who wants an all Anglo country youre mistaken. Come here from whatever country you like, but do it the right way.

Oh, just stop!!! The whole "my money" argument is such smallminded nonsense!!! There's a million things we each don't want the government spending our "money" on, and acting like it's being taken out of your wallet is just dumb!!
Again, after everything I pointed out you use another term like "milk the system," again making it sound like the intention of most illegals is to come here and receive assistance and handouts and not work or put anything into the system!!! That's not the case!!! Most of them receiving assistance is a byproduct of them being here and being exploited and not their main goal! You don't have to paint them to be lazy caricatures and villains to make your points!!!
I NEVER SAID THEY DON'T WORK. Im saying the amount of government assistance they consume far outweighs the cheap labor. Illegals have driven other minorities who are either citizens or here legally who are low skilled workers out of the market.
Yes, you've essentially said they don't work by repeatedly and willingly making them out to be welfare mom-type cartoons and stereotypes every chance you get!!
And no, what they consume doesn't outweigh the money made off of them!! It outweighs the taxes made off of them, but not the total money made, and it's not even close, hence why they've been tolerated for so long!!! That's the main reason we've seen so little lasting reform towards the immigration process and cracking down on the exploiters because too many people are making money off of them!!! It's also why your ideas are just these scatter shot pipe dreams that have zero chance of occurring because they revolve around the idea of getting rid of the illegals and then choking off the ability of people to get here!!! You'll deny this, but it's unavoidable conclusion when you want to starve them out, seal off the borders and do nothing to change the immigration process!!!
That's why when you say things like:
Come here from whatever country you like, but do it the right way.

"At first my parents said, 'What are you doing? You're risking so much,' " said David Cho, the UCLA drum major. "But I told them, 'It's not only me. There are thousands of students like me trapped in a broken system. Unless our generation speaks out, the politicians won't tackle it. They have to see our faces.' "
Cho, 21, who conducts the 250-member UCLA marching band in front of 75,000 people at the Rose Bowl, came to the U.S. from South Korea at the age of 9. It wasn't until he was accepted to UCLA that his father showed him a letter saying the family's visa wasn't valid.
"I grew up here, worked hard, got into UCLA. And there I was staring at this letter telling me to go 'home,' when this is home," Cho said. "My whole world flipped upside down."
With no papers, Cho can attend school but not legally work, drive or receive financial aid. He sleeps on a friend's couch or sometimes at the UCLA library. He tutors SAT students 30 hours a week for cash. More than once he's depended on charitable "food closets" on campus to get something to eat.
He has a double major in international economics and Korean, maintains a 3.6 grade-point average and is on schedule to graduate a quarter early. He plays seven musical instruments.

Refer to Article 4 section 4 of the constitution

I'm going to guess Cho's case is is unique and while I feel for him personally I was not a fan of the DREAM Act. Mostly because I don't think it was properly vetted and because the way I read the two year college requirement led me to believe that there would be all sorts of Bill & Ted's Excellent Colleges opening up in strip malls everywhere. My other concern is that turning illegal aliens into mercenaries whose payment is citizenship is just wrong. If this country is going to fight a war it has a duty and obligation to do it with people here legally.

I just read an article on the Dream Act that dumbed it down a little to make it make sense and I may have changed my mind on this idea.
It stated that the people eligible for the pathway to citizenship must enter the military for 2 years and or go to college. Then after thats is completed they still must go on a wait list for 10 years. Now as long as they are paying for their own college and its not free then Im down with this. Especially since this is for kids brought here by their parents. I would also hope it doesnt automatically make their parents citizens? Nothing should change for their parents because they would be too old to join the military and they were the one who broke the law in the 1st place. This should only help infants, toddlers and teens brought over by their parents and the kids not knowing they are illegal!
I think I could be ok with this.
Now if the child getting citizenship makes it so the parents get it too or that they can bring others over then all it is, is a mask for what is basically amnesty for all disguised as helping some!

I would comprimise for military service but it should be for at least 4 years. Thats your regular enlistment contract. 2 years is not enough. As previously stated they must be discharged honorablly, no bad conduct or dishonorable discharges.

I get it; you clearly do not. You're not paying for illegal immigrants anymore than you're paying for nuclear weapons or highways or post offices. You have no idea how your taxes are actually spent, and you seem to think illegals are causing you to pay taxes or more than you should be!!!
Tell me this, WF: if all illegals suddenly vanished in this country, besides your hideous permanent boner do you honestly think your taxes would change?

Yeah. Go look at the wacky, non-sequiturs WF is trying to post in the Tax thread in attempt to deflect the fact that he mocked the need for child protective services and thinks that charities, not government agencies, should investigate cases of child abuse.

I would comprimise for military service but it should be for at least 4 years. Thats your regular enlistment contract. 2 years is not enough. As previously stated they must be discharged honorablly, no bad conduct or dishonorable discharges.
Any form of sponsoring illegal parents or chain migration, I would not go for at all.
no its not, when I enlisted it was 2 years active, 6 years inactive reserve!

I enlisted it was for 4 years active, 4 yrs inactive. That was for the Marines
Im guessing other branches have different criteria

Post offices and post roads and raising a military is in the 18 enumarated powers
You are missing the point that i am paying for people here ILLEGALLY!!!!!!!
Knowing the power hungry bastards in DC Im sure they in their infinite wisdom will wind new ways to piss away money if all illegals were gone.

http://www.sunshinestatenews.com/story/report-immigrants-use-welfare-system-more-natives
Steve Camarota, director of research for the CIS, said that high rates of welfare usage do not necessarily reflect immigrants' unwillingness to work.
"The vast majority (95 percent) of immigrant households with children had at least one worker in 2009. But their low education levels mean that more than half of these working-immigrant households with children still accessed the welfare system."

I dont care if they work 24 hours a day at $2.00 an hour, they are still taking more than they are contributing, plus they are not supposed to be here
Its a net fiscal drain. They are consuming social services which means cheap labor isn't so cheap after all. An illegal family with 5 children collecting welfare isn't a problem? This proves that these people collecting are here to milk the system and suck the teet of the taxpayer. Think their own countries would allow this?
