you and I have been over this amnesty thing a billion times and you and I BOTH know that amnesty is the ONLY way to prevent chaos concerning illegal immigration....I wish we could deport all illegals but we would have to have a massive police force to do so and would bankrupt the country just on that alone.....better to let those who work stay and register them.....there is basically no other way..and you know that....do you knnow how many years and how much resources we would have to devote to kicking out 20 million illegals?
Ever heard of The Trail of Tears--the forced removal and of American Indians and Black Seminoles (although quite illegal in my book)....or how about when all those people had marched on Washington for immigrant (illegal)?
Amnesty won't work...if people are used to breaking the law now, when they are "citizens" they will break more laws, because they see it as a reward..And other countries are watching as well, like China...if the theory is to immigrant en mass illegally over time to the point where there is a problem again...what is the answer? Amnesty
Also, many , but not all, don't care to be citizens, take the money and retire in their home countries...
