What to do about Illegal Aliens ?

3) 2 years to be able to pass an 8th-grade equivalent civics/US history test.
Satisfy these requirements and "Congratulations! You are now a US citizen!"
Don't satisfy them? See ya...off you go to your home country. And...BTW...you leave your tax & SS money behind.

Illegals are here because this is "the promised land"...make it easy.

Don't forget the $1500 fine, about the cost of a good immigration lawyer.

Promised Land? Yep, they promise you everything but deliver squat.

Yes we do have many laws in place regarding this, problem is not many are enforced.

I know, lets give all the people who are drawing unemployment an immigration
badge and round them all up and march them to canada along with anyone
who refuses to work. See how long that govt health care works out for them
up there.

We haven't deamonized "illegals" enough. Let's start deamonize American Citizens now. They're all just too lazy to work. That's it.

Is enforcement the issue?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but does this not say, with the proper paperwork, anything goes.

Feel free to read on.

I was not speaking in a hypothetical sense. I know someone that works as an unusual type of "head hunter". I can find you more when I'm really bored.

Noon, that's probably where our differences start. Down here the ones that
own businesses and work are more deserving than the ones that do not work.
I would never be for cutting out some grandmothers check or benifits
but there are some sorry a$$ people that leach off the rest of us around
here. I guess if I lived in New York and saw what you see maybe I would play
the victim also and wish bad luck on the rich. Now I just hope everyday when
I come home from work I do not find my home ransacked by meth heads or
another democrat knocking on my door begging for a vote so they can take
more of what little money I make or cower down in front of some NBA players
threatening not to play unless their demands are met or stab me in the back
with some health care bs.

Jack unemployment there is lower than here, the national debt is nearly non-existent, home ownership is slightly higgher than here and the people are healthier so just maybe they might be doing something right. Oh yeah, they did not have to bail out any banks 'cause they have a better mortgage system - no securitization or derivatives. If you relly want to do summat useful after you round up all the illegals lock them up in Wall Street with the bastards who caused all the unemployment.

Of course things are better up there. You have a bunch of mostly self reliant
people growing their own food and entertaining themselves for the most part
without having to depend on the govt to guide/support them and without all the
trash we have to keep up.
And by going along with this method of buying overseas products and not
buying local, we are just as guilty as the bastards on wall street. We are
cutting our own throats.
