Guest Worker may not be amnesty, but what about this Carson quote?
Is it moral for us, for example, to take advantage of cheap labor from illegal immigrants while denying them citizenship? Im sure you can tell from the way I phrased the question that I believe we have taken the moral low road on this issue. Some segments of our economy would virtually collapse without these undocumented workerswe all know thatyet we continue to harass and deport many individuals who are simply seeking a better life for themselves and their families.
When I read this crap from Carson, I KNOW he hasn’t spent much time in the southwestern USA.
First we need to see serious enforcement of any immigration laws. If you get a visa to get into the USA, you are here forever, no one will ever come looking for you. Ask Mohamed Atta. Oh, wait, that’s right, you can’t, because he accidentally killed himself in a little plane accident 14 years and one day ago. In all the sanctuary cities (hard not to find one) no one will ever ask you for your papers.
YES, DR. CARSON, THIS INCLUDES GUEST WORKERS. Suuuuuure, give them visas to come just for picking season. Why, of course they will leave right after. And they would NEVER bring parents and kids and get them all into the local schools, hospitals, and jails...
