Well, I think this is a good idea. I have a family member who actually works for the border patrol in Arizona...and things have gotten out of control with the illegal immigrants crossing our borders on a daily basis. Yes, in a certain sense they do take jobs doing things Americans dont want to do, and the economy would probably crash if all 400,000 illegal immigrants were deported, however, there is a legal way for them to come into the US. Most of them just dont care or know how to read or write, or are just smuggling drugs across the border. Not to mention the scouts who blaze trails for groups of people to come over....including pregnant women, so they can have their child on US soil...thereby enabling them to US Taxpayer dollars...to support the child...yet, they send the money back to Mexico and are living like kings off our government! Something has to be done to enforce our borders. Alot of the aliens who try to sneak over get sick from heat exhaustion, or die. Who's paying for that? Oh, you and me! I think its a perfectly good bill. On the other hand, probably wont do much. If they get caught at the border they get booked, a bowl of chili, and a air conditioned bus ride back on the other side of the fence....and then repeat trying to get back into the USA! Some, two to three times a day! Sorry, but thats ridiculous. And the drug lord problems down there are getting really out of hand. So, hey, why dont you go live in Mexico then? Our country is a free country, for those who have followed the proper procedure to get here. Too many want a free ride for nothing...and our current government is making it easier!
I also agree with the fellow who talked about the military terms...I served my country...I think it would be a better place if everyone did at one point or another.
its a myth. in any economy there is a natural rate of unemployment. if these guys go, there will be unemployed Americans who will step forward. there will be a minor disequilibrium in the labor market. thats all.
the liberals whose heart bleeds for illegal immigrants from Mexico are intellectual frauds. they r fine till these immigrants are their lawn mowers. their voices change when Indians start working for Microsoft, Google and Wall Street. what those foolish liberals dont realise is that the base of Silicon Valley has already started shifting to China and India. All the major Bay area technology investors have their offices now in China and India. America can import Mexican labor, but it will end up killing its technological superiroty with these stupid policies.
