..translates into "to maintain the status quo and do nothing."

Maintain the status quo in the Mexican government is what massive immigration is really about. I'd say get some control over it --- let the chips fall where they may in Mexico --- but don't live in terror that things will get worse over there --- they might, they might not. They couldn't get much worse. If the wrong group replaces this wrong group what happens? We get 1,500,005 immigrants instead of 1,500,000 a year?

Your idea of "fair" relies on the illegal aliens going home either voluntarily, or being sent home by force, which puts us right back where we are right now.

Your think that we should enact some sort of immigration reform which satisfies you emotionally, but can't be really enforced, nor will it be effective.

In fact, it has the possibilities of having disastrous effects on the nation.

They are here already, tens of millions of them according to you.

Why in the hell would they get up and walk away from what they have built since they managed to get into the country and get work, to go back to the country they fled because they couldn't make a decent living there?

You think that their motivation to do that is the possibility of being admitted back into the USA so that they can start all over again, no job, no house, no guarantee that they can even get back here?

The vast majority of them won't do it.

So then, we are left right back at square one...remove them by force, regardless of whatever impact it may have on society, our civil rights, and our economy.

All that, just to satisfy your irrational emotional needs.

You have no plan at all, you are actually an impediment to any plan that has a chance of working.
