Why can't we just do something like...Every immigrant must be registered. Registration cost $20 (or whatever govt thinks!) You get an ID card and a immigrant workers ID number, you must provide such information to your employer upon employment. You must also get a drivers license and carry insurance. No free services will be provided for immigrants. No free medical care (the Mexican's have free medical care in Mexico) they can go back if they need to see their doctor. No free deliveries and children born here will not qualify their parents for social service programs such as WIC and Medicaid, unless their parents contribute to the immigration tax payers fund. Which must be at least a certain amount and not over a certain amount (I don't know those numbers) Citizenship will be available from all the regular current channels, immigrants must work and pay their immigration tax to live here.
I don't think we need to close our border, but we need to regulate the chaos coming through that border. We can't continue to be the number one GNP of a Nation that is helping to bankrupt us (not that they needed help with Obama at the helm) but that is another topic.
I don't think that it is heartless. I am a hard working American, my husband is a general contractor and our income has taken a 70% cut in the last year and we had to cancel our health insurance for our own family. We hardly ever see a doctor and yet our major medical policy was over $1000.00 per month for our family of 6, we just can't carry it any longer in this economy. We had to cut just about everything out!
AND NO I don't want OBAMA's Health care, NO THANKS!
This doesn't solve crime and drug trafficking. But we could in act and law you do something illegal and we catch you and you are out. At least it would be a start! Of course we would have to actually enforce the law and borders to make this work and for whatever reason we seem unable to do so.
