Nobody is calling for rounding up immigrants. Just enforce the laws, make it financially very dangerous to employ illegals and they will go home. Put a few landscape contractors and McDonalds operators in jail and fine them enormously, the employers will get the message.
There will be no need to round em up and ship em back like Operation Wetback. Like you say crack down on employers AND cut off the welfare to illegals, they will self-deport.
Hey BU... I would add Landlords to your plan. If someone who should not be here cannot find work or a place to live, they will go home where they belong on their own.
The penalties would have to be harsh for the employers and landlords, but it’s really a very simple plan.
You massively fund E-Verify
You make it a Felony to attempt to evade E-Verify or subvert it`s process of verification thru ID fraud or any payoff/bribery with long, mandatory jail sentences and MASSIVE fines.
You enact laws that are INTENTIALLY DESIGNED to financially eviscerate and bankrupt any entity, company, or corporation that dares to employ anyone that is an illegal. You also enact mandatory jail sentences.
You take those funds raised via the fines and give rewards to the individuals AND police agencies who turn in or arrest employers and entities that aid illegals in the US-I call that 'The drop a dime, make a bundle act."
You make it a felony and federal offense to give any illegal ANY taxpayer funded largess, backed with massive fines and mandatory jail time for violations.
And last but certainly NOT least. You strip Sovereign Immunity from ANY governmental official AND agency for offering aid or assistance, to include 'sanctuary cities', to illegal aliens.
With such teeth, there will be no need to create and empower a US Gestapo that WILL INVARAIBLY BE TURNED AGAINST US, the same way they`ve turned the NSA, Patriot Act, the no fly lists, the executive orders,... The freakin list goes on and on!
Don`t support their Hegelian Dialectic, they create this illegal alien problem then step in with the solution, the last trappings of the police state, it`s working that`ll be coming for Conservatives, given we don`t support that police state.
