Any legislation that allows the lawbreakers to stay and work here, .. Giving them green cards ...

Either I am confused or Rubio is confused. He says e-verify will be mandatory and that illegals have to wait at least 5 years to get a Green Card but...they have to be gainfully employed for that 5 years. How does this happen Marco? How can you be gainfully employed for 5 years without the Green Card? Political doublespeak?

Rubio is just using some focus group language. He knows full well that the "temporary" legalization includes a work permit. These people will be paying into Medicare and SS. They will be entitled to the benefits of these programs. And they will get other benefits thru their US born children.

We are not enforcing now the prohibition that you must be here five years on a green card before being eligible for benefits. And exactly how will you deport people who don't have a job? The enforcement of these "rules" will be virtually impossible. Hell, we can't even rein in fraud in Medicare, Medicaid, and food stamps.

How will those "temporarily" legalized receive healthcare? Will IRS force them to pay penalties for not buying health insurance? Will their children be ineligible for Medicaid and the CHIPS program? Will they be ineligible for Obamacare subsidies and the use of exchanges to buy health insurance? More than half of the illegal aliens lack even a high school degree. They will be takers not givers when it comes to services received versus taxes paid. Will they receive EITC?

Rubio isn't confused. On FNS, the more he tried to explain, the faster he talked. Typical of someone who is spouting muddled truths (lies) in hopes that the listener doesn't actually 'hear' what he is saying.

Like McCain, Bush, and the many others before, they are wanting to 'regularize' illegals but not call it amnesty.

It is word games and shell games. Rubio isn't confused. He bought into the McCain-Graham gang hook, line, and sinker.
