Quote from BSAM:
Brother Captain, we are bankrupt.
We just haven't formally declared it yet.
If you don't want to take my word for it, ask Ron Paul.
Quote from CaptainObvious:
...Whatever the case, we just can't keep taking in millions of people who bring nothing with them but mouths to feed and drain us dry while they're trying to make this new life for themselves on our nickel.
Quote from gwb-trading:
It is time to face a harsh reality that you are not going to round up 6 million illegal immigrants, ship them to the border, and kick them out of the country. The cost of doing this alone is astronomical, not to mention the logistic issues.
We should adopt the following practical approach:
1) Require all illegal immigrants to register within 90 days of a set start date with the INS. Any illegal immigrant with criminal convictions or charges would be rounded up and deported. Any illegal immigrant found without id after the 90 day period would be deported.
2) All immigrants would receive a 6 year visa and a tax identitification number. All would be required to indentify their employers and pay taxes. No child care credits, etc. would apply to taxes for non-US citizens. After 6 years, the visa can be renewed.
3) Build larger fences at our border and increase the border patrol. Keep new illegals out.
the solution is so much simpler than this. this could be solved tomorrow. put the employer in jail not the employee. they wont come if they cant get work......ops, rich republicans like that cheap labor. now you know why there has been no solution yet.Quote from gwb-trading:

So you're going to throw some small business owner in jail because some wetback has provided fraudulent documentation on employment eligibility?Quote from Free Thinker:
